Our success is measured not in vanity metrics, but in real business outcomes for our Durban clients. Here's what systematic SEO delivers.
Challenge: Competing against national brands with larger budgets
What We Did: Technical SEO audit revealed crawl issues blocking 40% of products. Combined with local keyword targeting ("Durban fashion," "KZN clothing stores") and structured data implementation for product rich snippets.
Key Insight: Local SEO + e-commerce optimization outperformed their previous national PPC campaigns at 1/5th the cost.
Challenge: Invisible for high-value legal service keywords in KZN
What We Did: Created service-specific landing pages targeting "corporate lawyer Umhlanga," "business law Durban," combined with Google Business Profile optimization and legal directory citations.
Key Insight: Long-tail legal keywords converted at 12x higher rate than generic terms, justifying premium content investment.
Challenge: New practice competing against established clinics
What We Did: Aggressive local SEO focusing on Google Business Profile, medical directory submissions, review generation strategy, and hyper-local content ("GP near Durban North," "family doctor Virginia").
Key Insight: For service-area businesses, Google Map Pack visibility drives 3x more calls than organic position #1.
Challenge: Zero online presence, all business from referrals
What We Did: Built comprehensive logistics SEO strategy targeting "freight forwarding Durban," "customs clearing KZN," with industry-specific content establishing thought leadership.
Key Insight: B2B SEO has longer cycles but higher contract values—one enterprise client covered 2 years of SEO investment.

An SEO agency performs comprehensive optimization across multiple areas to improve your website's search engine visibility and drive qualified organic traffic. Our services include technical SEO (site speed, mobile optimization, crawlability), on-page optimization (content, meta tags, internal linking), off-page optimization (link building, digital PR), and local SEO (Google Business Profile, citations, reviews). We also provide strategic planning, competitive analysis, performance monitoring, and continuous optimization based on algorithm updates and performance data.
We offer three main monthly packages: Starter (R2,490/month) for small businesses needing essential local SEO, Growth (R6,500/month) for comprehensive optimization and content strategy, and Enterprise (R12,000+/month) for large-scale campaigns. All packages include local SEO optimization, technical improvements, and detailed reporting with no lock-in contracts. SEO is an investment that typically delivers 3-5x ROI within 12-18 months.

Most Durban businesses begin seeing measurable SEO improvements within 8–12 weeks, depending on competition, website health, and industry. Local SEO signals, Google Business Profile optimisation, technical fixes, and authority building all influence how fast rankings improve. Long-term campaigns typically deliver sustained organic traffic growth, higher keyword visibility, and stronger lead generation.
An SEO agency specialises purely in search engine optimisation—keyword research, technical SEO, link building, and content optimisation—while a digital marketing agency may also offer paid ads, social media, and branding. If your primary goal is to improve organic rankings, grow local Durban visibility, and increase Google search traffic, a dedicated SEO agency offers a more focused approach.
SEO is never a once-off task. Search algorithms evolve, competitors update their websites, and new keywords emerge. For Durban companies targeting local search ranking, ongoing SEO work—fresh content, authority building, link acquisition, and continuous optimisation—is essential for maintaining and improving keyword positions. One-time fixes offer short-term gains, but long-term SEO delivers sustainable results.
High-quality backlinks act as trust signals to search engines. When reputable websites link to your content, it increases domain authority, improves keyword ranking potential, and strengthens local relevance. For Durban businesses, acquiring relevant local links—from regional blogs, news sites, directories, and business networks—plays a major role in improving local SEO performance.
Yes. A professional SEO agency can fully optimise your Google Business Profile (GBP) by improving your categories, adding service areas, updating photos, posting weekly updates, and managing reviews. These optimisations help your business appear in the Google Map Pack, which is crucial for Durban companies targeting local customers, walk-in traffic, and high-intent local search queries.
SEO is a long-term strategy with results typically becoming noticeable within 3-6 months, and significant improvements visible within 6-12 months. Initial technical optimizations may show quick wins in website performance and crawlability. Content optimizations often take 2-3 months to index and rank. Local SEO for Durban businesses often shows faster results (4-8 weeks for local pack visibility) due to lower competition in specific geographic areas.
While we can't guarantee specific rankings (no legitimate SEO agency can), we do guarantee our work quality, communication, and commitment to your success. Real SEO agencies don't offer guarantees because search algorithms are constantly evolving and many ranking factors are beyond our control. What we can guarantee: transparent reporting, dedicated account management, white-hat optimization techniques, and continuous optimization based on performance data. Our 95% client retention rate demonstrates the value we deliver.
