What you gain
What changeswhen it's done right.
Wellington is tighter than the smaller centres, but it's still winnable if you build proper local pages instead of one templated city page.
- 01Visibility
Rank where Wellington searches
We build around the suburb searches people here actually type, Thorndon to Miramar. "Electrician Newtown" brings work. "Electrical services Wellington" mostly brings competition.

Wellington isn't one CBD with suburbs around it. It's a set of pockets — Te Aro, Thorndon, Kelburn, Newtown, Miramar — separated by hills and hard to get between. "Local" means something tighter here than it does anywhere else in the country.
That changes how people search. A Thorndon villa reno and a Newtown rental repair are different jobs, searched for differently. A page written for "Wellington" as one flat area misses both. We build a page per pocket you actually work in.
It also changes what wins. Plenty of people here are searching on foot between meetings, so "open now" and "closest" beat "best in the region". Getting your Google Business Profile right matters more in Wellington than almost anywhere.

Common questions
The questions weget asked most.
What Wellington owners ask before booking a free plan.
One fixed price a month. No setup fee, no surprise line items for "extra" content or links. What it comes to depends on your trade and how hard your searches are — the free plan tells you before you commit to anything.
A few will say they do. None of them can. Google's results aren't an agency's to promise, and a guarantee that sounds firm is usually hedged in the fine print. What we put in writing is the list of searches we're chasing, and every month you see where you sit on each one. That's something you can actually hold us to.
We check what's broken and fix it, rewrite your pages, build suburb and service pages, earn real links, and send a plain-English report every month. One fixed price, nothing held back for an upsell later.
Trades are who we build for — builders, plumbers, electricians, roofers and the rest. Urgent local searches are exactly what SEO is best at catching.
Some movement usually shows in the first few weeks, because the technical fixes land first. Enquiries follow once the new pages have been up a month or two. Suburb searches — Te Aro, Newtown, Miramar — tend to move faster than one broad city-wide phrase.
No. We work with businesses right across New Zealand and run every job remotely, with the same access and reporting whether you're in Thorndon or out in the Hutt. Get in touch and we'll tell you straight whether we're the right fit.
Nothing, really. People use both words for the same thing. What matters is whether they'll write down the searches they're chasing, price the work up front, and let you leave without a long contract.
Three months to start, because that's what it takes to set the work up properly. After that it's month by month. If we're not delivering, you can go.
