Get a Website Built for SEO
WordPress Sites Ready to Rank
Most websites are designed first and optimised later, which means rewriting pages and changing URLs after launch. I build it the other way round: keyword research and site structure first, then design, so your site can rank from the day it goes live.
An SEO specialist builds your site from start to finish. You get one contact person, a fixed quote, and a website you own completely.
A website that can rank from launch day
A website that looks good but doesn’t show up in Google needs ads to get visitors, and the visitors stop the day the ads stop. An SEO-first website keeps bringing customers who are already searching for what you offer.
The difference starts before the design. If you know which searches matter, you know which pages to build, what to call them and how to link them. Fixing that after launch costs months, because every changed URL needs a redirect and Google has to learn the site again.
In short
- Keyword research before the first design
- WordPress, mobile-first and fast
- Technical SEO and schema built in
- Ready for Google and AI search
- One contact person from start to launch
- Domain, hosting and content in your name
What’s included
Everything a new website needs to be found, in one project. No separate SEO agency after launch to fix what the web designer missed.
Keyword research first
Before any design, I find the searches your customers make and decide which page targets which keyword. Every page gets a job.
A structure that ranks
Pages are grouped into silos with clean internal links, so Google understands what you are an expert in.
Technical SEO built in
Short URLs, canonical tags, an XML sitemap, schema markup and correct indexing settings from day one.
Fast and mobile-first
Designed for a phone screen first, with compressed images and a light theme, because most visitors arrive on mobile.
Copy that answers questions
Each page answers the main question in its first lines and leads to a clear next step. Written for people and for search engines.
Ready for AI search
Clear answers, FAQ schema and open access for AI crawlers, so ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews can cite your pages. See what GEO is.
Tracking set up
Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools and analytics connected before launch, so you can see what works from the first week.
You own everything
Domain, hosting account, WordPress login and content are in your name. No lock-in, no monthly fee you can’t leave.
Built by an SEO, not only a designer
Many agencies build good-looking websites. The difference shows in the decisions made before anyone opens a design tool.
| Decision | Typical website project | SEO-first website |
|---|---|---|
| Starting point | A design mockup | Keyword and competitor research |
| Which pages exist | Home, About, Services, Contact | One page for each search your customers make |
| URLs and titles | Whatever the page builder creates | Short, planned and matched to a keyword |
| Content | Added by the client at the end | Written around search intent, answer first |
| Technical setup | Default settings | Sitemap, canonicals, schema, indexing checked |
| After launch | Handover and invoice | Search Console check and a growth plan |
How it works
Four steps, and you approve each one before the next starts.
Free call and keyword research
We talk about your business, your customers and your goals. I then research the keywords and competitors and send you a fixed quote with a list of every page the site needs.
Structure and design
You get a sitemap of all pages and how they link together, then a design for the homepage and one inner page. We agree on both before the build starts.
Build and content
I build the site in WordPress, write or edit the copy for every page, add schema and set up the technical SEO. You review everything on a test version.
Launch and first check
The site goes live, gets submitted to Google and Bing, and I check indexing and errors in the first weeks. You get a short training and a plan for the next steps.
Websites I built and run myself
These are my own sites. They earn money through affiliate commissions, so they only work if they rank. The same methods go into the websites I build for clients.
A guide to Gaudí’s buildings in Barcelona, with one page per monument and a shared design. Built to rank for lower-competition ticket and visitor searches.
Tickets and practical answers for Venice’s water buses. A small, focused site that targets the exact questions visitors type before a trip.
Tenerife attractions for German-speaking visitors, from Loro Parque to Siam Park. Evergreen ticket pages, written to stay accurate for years.
A new niche site about Greenland tours for travellers who know nothing about the country yet. Data-first pages with prices and logistics up front.
One attraction, one site: the SEA LIFE aquarium in Porto, for French-speaking visitors. Proof that a narrow topic can rank on its own.
Blogs about Barcelona, Amsterdam and Venice with 2,000-word articles in topic silos, later translated into French and English. Read the case study.
Brands I’ve worked with
Over 15 years in search marketing, agency-side and in-house, for international brands and small businesses.
Who this is for
Businesses that need their first real website
You have customers through word of mouth, but nobody finds you on Google. You want a site that brings new enquiries without paying for every click.
Companies with an outdated site
Your current site is slow, hard to edit or invisible in search. You want to rebuild it without losing the rankings you already have.
Businesses selling in several countries
You need versions in more than one language, with correct hreflang so each market sees the right page. I work in English, German, French and Spanish.
Niche and content sites
You want a focused site on one topic that earns through leads or affiliate links. That is exactly how I build my own sites.
Rebuilding an existing website?
A redesign is where many sites lose their traffic. The new site goes live, old URLs return errors, and the pages that ranked disappear. To prevent that, I export every URL with traffic or backlinks before anything changes, map each one to its new address with a 301 redirect, and keep the content that already ranks. After launch I watch Search Console for crawl errors until the new pages are indexed.
If you are not sure where your current site stands, the first call includes a quick look at your traffic, your backlinks and the pages that matter most.
FAQ: getting an SEO website built
How much does an SEO website cost?
It depends on the number of pages, the number of languages and whether I write the content. After the first call you get a fixed quote with every page listed, so you know the full price before any work starts.
How long does it take to build?
A small business site is quicker than a multilingual site with 40 pages. The quote includes a timeline for each phase, and keyword research and structure always come first, because everything else is built on them.
Why WordPress?
WordPress gives you full control over titles, URLs, schema and redirects, it runs a large part of the web, and you can edit pages yourself without a developer. I build all my own sites on it.
Can I edit the website myself?
Yes. You get a short training session at handover, and the pages are built with the standard WordPress block editor, so changing text, prices or images doesn’t need any code.
Do you write the content?
I can. I write the main pages myself, in English, built around the keywords from the research. If you prefer to write your own texts, I give you a brief for every page with the target keyword, headings and questions to answer.
Do you guarantee first-page rankings?
No, and be careful with anyone who does. Rankings depend on competition, content and links over time. What I guarantee is that the site is built so nothing technical holds it back, and that you get a clear plan for what comes after launch.
Can you rebuild my existing website without losing traffic?
Yes. Before anything changes, I export every URL that has traffic or backlinks and map it to its new address with a 301 redirect. After launch I check Search Console for errors so the rankings you already have carry over.
