Tired of Guessing Why You’re Not Ranking? We Know Why—And We Fix It.
At Pearl Lemon, we help Staffordshire businesses that are practically invisible in search finally become visible to people who are already ready to pay for their services. If you’re running a business in Stafford, Tamworth, Lichfield, Burton, or nearby—and you’re frustrated watching competitors appear above you even when they offer less—you’re not alone.
Most business owners think SEO is some kind of mystery, or worse, they’ve been told to “just keep blogging.” Let’s be clear: your phone isn’t ringing because your site isn’t configured properly for Google. And if your web developer or past marketing team told you otherwise, they either didn’t know better or didn’t care.
We don’t talk about theory. We apply practical SEO—measurable, technical, and ruthlessly executed.
Our Services – SEO Focused on Rankings and Revenue
This isn’t about mindlessly posting on social media or running paid ads just to stay busy. Our SEO agency Staffordshire offering is built around one purpose: getting your business to show up right when it counts—when someone is searching with the intent to buy.
Here’s what we offer. All handled by our internal team. No outsourcing. No shortcuts.
Technical SEO – Fix What’s Broken
Most websites are overloaded, misconfigured, or not properly indexed.
We begin with a detailed technical audit, where we check:
- Crawlability (robots.txt and XML sitemap checks)
- Canonical issues and redirect problems (301s, 302s, 404s)
- Internal linking and pages with no connections
- Core Web Vitals (FCP, LCP, CLS from PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse)
- Mobile indexing issues
- Schema markup for products, services, reviews, and business data
Why it matters: 93% of users click on sites that load in under 2.5 seconds and meet performance standards. Google ignores broken sites.
Keyword Research – Rank for What People Search
We don’t guess. We search real data around search volume and purchase intent.
We target Staffordshire-based keywords like:
- “Plumber Cannock 24/7”
- “E-commerce SEO Staffordshire”
- “Staffordshire solicitor near me”
- “Tamworth dental implants SEO”
- “Stafford local SEO agency”
We examine intent, keyword competition, ad cost per click, and what features are shown on the results page.
Why it matters: Ranking #1 for a phrase no one uses does nothing. You have the intent to purchase.
On-Page SEO – Make Your Offer Clear to Google
We rewrite and organize every page with structured HTML, proper headings, and focused content plans.
We fix:
- Title tags and descriptions that help increase click rates
- Proper H1–H6 tag structure
- Keyword grouping and relevance analysis
- Image descriptions for accessibility and indexing
- Strategic internal linking to distribute authority
We rewrite your content so that both Google and your potential customers know exactly what you offer—immediately.
Local SEO – Show Up in Staffordshire Searches and Maps
We improve your Google Business Profile, local pages, directory listings, and keep your contact data consistent everywhere.
We also apply local schema code, content around your service areas, and a review collection process that signals trust to Google.
Why it matters: 78% of searches on mobile that include a location lead to a purchase. If you’re not appearing in local results, you’re missing out.
Link Building – Gain Authority Without Risks
We don’t buy junk links. We build strong authority using:
- Manual outreach and guest content
- Industry-specific features
- Relevant directory listings
- Finding and reclaiming mentions of your brand
- Reverse-engineering links that your competitors have
We audit your backlinks monthly using Ahrefs and Semrush to remove low-quality links and track authority metrics.
Why it matters: Quality backlinks remain the top factor for ranking outside your website. Without them, you’re going nowhere.
SEO Audits & Reporting – Know What’s Working
We audit every 30 days and track:
- Keyword rank changes and click data
- Crawl stats
- Technical issues
- How link anchor text is used
- New backlink
- Conversions: calls, form submissions, and sales
You’ll get actual results, not just traffic numbers that don’t convert.
Why it matters: Most agencies brag about increased traffic. We show you if that traffic is buying.
Content Strategy – Built to Rank and Convert
Google ranks individual pages, not entire websites. If your site lacks focused service pages, long-form posts that answer specific search queries, or structured topic groups, you’re practically invisible.
We build a content plan based on:
- Keyword mapping and themed content groups
- Related keyword usage (semantic targeting)
- Clear URL hierarchy and crawlable depth
- Up-to-date content signals (to outperform outdated competitors)
Why it matters: Sites with organized, updated content and a regular publishing rhythm see up to 434% more indexed pages and twice the number of leads over time.
Conversion-Focused SEO – Turn Visitors Into Leads
Getting visitors isn’t enough. You need them to take action.
We combine SEO and conversion optimisation by reviewing:
- Heatmaps (how far users scroll, where they click)
- Page speed and mobile usability
- Friction in forms and how calls-to-action are placed
- Behavior triggers (like exit-intent and how long users stay)
Why it matters: SEO traffic without results is just noise. We’ve helped local businesses increase form submissions by 32% just by adjusting the layout and call buttons.
SEO for Multi-Location Businesses in Staffordshire
If you serve more than one area, Google needs to see each location as distinct and relevant.
We build structured local SEO setups that include:
- Location-specific service pages
- Google Business Profile setup for each branch
- A schema that matches each town or service area
- Local links through mentions in directories, community pages, and sponsorships
Why it matters: Businesses with multiple branches and dedicated location pages see up to 78% better visibility in local results than those using a generic page.

Technical FAQs – SEO Agency Staffordshire

Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, Semrush, Google Search Console, GTMetrix, SurferSEO, and our custom audit tools.
Yes. We help agencies that need technical SEO, content creation, and reporting support in the background.
