SEO · Kettering, Northamptonshire

SEO in Kettering from a studio six miles up the road.

Local search for Kettering businesses: a technical audit first, a Google Business Profile that is complete and kept that way, a page for every service you want to be found for, structured data and AI-search files, and measurement you can read. Three of our published case studies are Kettering companies.

Chris Moss, founder of CSM Web Design
Who you would be dealing with

Chris Moss and a small team. No account managers.

The person who quotes your website is the person who designs and builds it. Chris founded CSM in 2009 and brings more than twenty years of strategic and technical experience — WordPress and WooCommerce, hosting, security and performance — to every project. The studio is in Great Oakley, six miles from Kettering, so a first meeting at your premises is about fifteen minutes away.
What you get that a bigger agency will not give you: a fixed price before anything starts, the same two people from brief to launch, hosting on servers we run ourselves, and a site you own outright.

What SEO in Kettering actually involves.

Kettering businesses compete with Corby, Wellingborough and Northampton suppliers for the same searches, so the town name on its own is not enough. The pages have to be specific — which services, which areas, real jobs, real reviews — and the technical side has to be clean. That is where most local sites fall down, and where we start.

01 —

Technical audit, fixed first

Crawlability, speed, mobile, indexing, duplicate pages, redirects and structured data. Nothing else works on a broken foundation.
02 —

Google Business Profile

Every field complete, the right categories, regular photos, every review answered, details consistent everywhere. The map pack comes from here.
03 —

A page for every service

Written for the person searching, answering what they ring to ask, with real jobs shown. One page cannot rank for six services.
04 —

Reviews, on a system

A review link in every job sign-off. Recency and replies matter as much as the count.
05 —

Structured data and AI search

Organisation, services, FAQs and people marked up on every page, plus llms.txt and crawler permissions so ChatGPT and Gemini can verify you.
06 —

Measured honestly

Search Console and GA4 shared with you: queries, positions, enquiries. If something is not working we say so.
What Kettering customers search for

The searches that matter are the practical ones.

Nobody searches for a “digital solutions partner”. They search for a trade or a service and the town, usually on a phone, often ready to call. Typical Kettering searches we plan around:

If your business is not in the first three results for its own version of these, that is the gap we close.
