Why Manchester Companies Choose Us
Most SEO agencies sell the same tired package to every client. We don't.
We start by understanding your business, your competition, and what actually drives revenue for you. Then we build a strategy that fits. We avoid twelve-month contracts that lock you into mediocrity.
You'll get transparent work, direct communication, and campaigns designed to get you found by people who are ready to buy. Whether that's through Google, AI search platforms like ChatGPT, or local discovery, we focus on what moves the needle.
Search is changing. Millions of people are using ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity instead of Google, and most businesses aren't showing up. We optimize your content so AI platforms cite you as a trusted source when people ask questions in your space. This is brand-new territory, but we're already running campaigns that get clients mentioned in AI-generated answers. The businesses that act now will own this channel before it gets crowded.

If you serve customers in Manchester or the surrounding areas, local SEO is how you get found when people are ready to buy. We optimize your Google Business Profile, build citations, and make sure your site ranks in the local Map Pack for high-intent searches. We also fix technical issues like inconsistent business information and weak location pages that kill local visibility. Most agencies skip this work. We make it a priority.
We earn links from relevant, authoritative sites in your industry. Not spammy directories or low-quality blogs that hurt your rankings long-term. Our process focuses on creating content that people want to link to and building relationships with sites that matter. Every link is tracked, and every placement is vetted for quality. We don't take shortcuts, and we don't use tactics that put your site at risk when Google updates their algorithm.
You can't improve what you don't measure. We set up proper analytics and conversion tracking so you know exactly which pages, keywords, and campaigns are driving revenue. That means connecting Google Analytics, Search Console, and your CRM so you can see the full picture. No more relying on guesswork or vanity metrics that look good but don't pay the bills. Just clean, reliable data that tells you what's working.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a money-back guarantee?
We care about real business growth, not just numbers on a screen. Our SEO brings in visitors who actually turn into customers. Everything is backed by data and strategy, so you know it’s working. Plus, we don’t lock you into long-term contracts, which leads nicely to the next question
Do I need a long-term contract to work with Embarque?
No. We don’t lock you into anything. You pay monthly and cancel anytime if it’s not working for you (but we’re confident it will).
Can you help with local SEO or GEO SEO?
Yes. Whether you need to rank locally on Google or show up in AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, we make sure your business is easy to find wherever people are searching
How much do Embarque’s SEO services cost?
Our pricing depends on what you need. Check out our pricing section for all the details.
How do I get started with Embarque?
First, pick a plan from our pricing section, and we’ll get you onboarded smoothly. Or, if you’d rather chat first, book a 30-minute discovery call. One of our SEO experts will go over your goals and find the best plan for your business.
What types of businesses do you work with?
We work with fast-growing companies, SaaS brands, and businesses that need more leads from SEO. If you want real growth and not just vanity metrics, we’re a good fit.
Do you offer one-time SEO audits or strategy sessions?
Yes! If you’re not ready for a full-service SEO plan, we can audit your site or build a custom strategy to help you figure out the best next steps.
What results can I expect from working with Embarque?
You’ll get more traffic, better rankings, and high-quality leads that actually convert. SEO takes time, but most of our clients see real progress within 3-6 months (sometimes even sooner), with growth compounding over time.
Do you provide reports on SEO performance?
Yes! Depending on the plan you go for, you’ll get monthly or bi-monthly reports with clear insights on traffic, rankings, conversions, and ROI.
How much does SEO cost in Manchester?
Serious SEO campaigns typically cost between £2,000 and £5,000 per month, depending on your industry and goals. If someone quotes you £500, they're either outsourcing to cheap providers or doing surface-level work that won't deliver results. SEO requires ongoing effort, quality content, and real link building. In competitive Manchester markets, cutting corners means wasting money on strategies that don't work. You're paying for expertise, consistency, and campaigns that actually improve your visibility and revenue over time.
How long before I see results from SEO?
Most businesses see measurable improvements within three to six months, but it depends on your starting point and how competitive your market is. If your site has technical problems or weak content, we fix that first. Then we build authority through links and optimized pages. SEO is cumulative, not instant. The longer you invest in it, the stronger your position becomes. Companies that commit for a year or more usually end up dominating their niche in Manchester.
What's the difference between local manchester and national SEO?
Local SEO targets customers searching for services in Manchester or nearby areas, like "electrician in Salford" or "gym near me." It focuses on your Google Business Profile, local citations, and location-based content. National SEO targets broader keywords without geographic limits. If you have a physical location or serve specific areas, local SEO often delivers faster wins because you're competing in a smaller pool. Most Manchester businesses need both, but local usually makes sense as a starting point.
Can I do Manchester SEO myself, or do I need an agency?
You can learn the basics, but doing it well takes time, technical knowledge, and constant attention to what's working. Most business owners don't have the bandwidth to stay on top of algorithm changes, competitor strategies, and execution across technical SEO, content, and link building. An agency brings experience, tools, and a team that does this full-time. If SEO is critical to your growth, hiring experts usually pays for itself in faster results and fewer costly mistakes.
Do you guarantee rankings on Google?
No, and you should avoid anyone who does. Google's algorithm changes constantly, and rankings depend on your competition, site history, and execution quality. What we do guarantee is transparency, consistent work, and a proven process. We focus on driving traffic and conversions, not just chasing rankings. A top ranking that doesn't convert is worthless. We'd rather get you on page one for keywords that bring in customers than rank you number one for terms that don't matter.
What makes your Manchester SEO agency different?
We don't bury you in corporate jargon or bloated reports. You talk directly to the people doing the work, and we explain everything in plain English. We also specialize in newer channels like AI search optimization, which most agencies aren't touching yet. Our focus is on delivering measurable results without the typical agency runaround. We're not trying to be the biggest. We're trying to be the best at what we do and the easiest to work with.
