SEO · Northampton, Northamptonshire

SEO for Northampton businesses, without the agency retainer.

Northampton has more SEO agencies than any town in the county, and most of them sell a monthly retainer with a dashboard. We sell the work: a technical audit, a Business Profile that is actually complete, a page for every service, structured data and AI-search files, and honest measurement. Month to month, from a Northamptonshire studio established 2009.

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, twenty-two miles from Northampton, so a first meeting at your premises is about forty 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 Northampton actually involves.

Northampton is a big enough town that the map pack is contested in almost every trade. That means the basics are not enough on their own: you also need service pages that answer the question better than the competitor’s, reviews that keep coming, and a site that passes Core Web Vitals on a phone. That is the programme.

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 Northampton 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 Northampton searches we plan around:
solicitors northamptonroofers northamptondentist northamptoncar garage northamptonestate agents northamptonaccountants northampton
If your business is not in the first three results for its own version of these, that is the gap we close.

SEO questions from Northampton.

Use one if the fit is right. What we offer instead is the founder doing the work, prices on the website, no contract, and a studio forty minutes away that will come and meet you. Judge both on the measurements.

Included from the Business tier if we build the site; otherwise Care+ at £75 a month for maintenance or Growth at £250 a month for an active programme. Larger scopes are quoted in writing.

No. Nobody honest does. We guarantee the work, show you the numbers and tell you when something is not worth chasing.

The same foundations plus a few technical files. Every site we build ships with them; it is not a reason to pay anyone extra.
