Search engine optimization for companies in Berkeley

With 121,749 residents in the 2024 Census Bureau estimates, Berkeley is the 53rd largest city in California. That puts it 240th in the national ranking of cities. There are 76 cities in California with their own page here.

With fewer competitors in a smaller city, the map results decide almost everything. A well-kept Google Business Profile and a clear website are most of what it takes to reach the top three. We work from Murcia, in Spain, usually 9 hours ahead of Berkeley. Meetings are by video call and in English. If your business is in Oakland, Richmond or San Francisco, there is a page like this one for each.

Berkeley

SEO by sector

  • Tutoring centers

    Enrolments bunch into a few weeks of the year. The page for each course has to be ranking in Berkeley before the school year starts, not after.

  • Accounting firms

    Tax questions are searched all year round: how to register, which form to file, what an accountant costs. Every well-written answer brings clients from Berkeley to your firm.

  • Hotels

    Every booking that comes through your own site is a commission a portal does not take. We rank the hotel for its name, its area and the plans people search for in Berkeley.

How we work on search engine optimization in Berkeley

No two projects are alike. A law firm, an online store and a clinic need different things, so the first job is getting to know your business and your customer.

  1. 01

    Technical audit

    We go through your website in depth to find what is holding it back: speed, indexing, structure and errors.

  2. 02

    Keyword research

    Every sector has its own vocabulary, and it is rarely the one the company uses. We look for the words the buyer uses.

  3. 03

    Content that ranks

    We create the pages you are missing and fix the ones you have, thinking first of the reader and then of Google.

  4. 04

    Link building

    To Google, a link is a recommendation. We go after the ones with weight: press, trade associations and websites in your field.

  5. 05

    Local, national and international SEO

    We fit the work to where your customers are: in your neighborhood, across the country or in other languages and markets.

  6. 06

    Measuring results

    We track rankings, traffic and sales, and go through the data each month looking for the next thing worth doing.

What moving up the results looks like

The top few results take most of the clicks. It happens with "math tutor berkeley", with "small business accountant berkeley" and with any search in your sector.

  1. We choose the searches that bring customers.
  2. We repair the technical faults on the site.
  3. We rewrite the pages that need to rank.
  4. We earn links from media and websites in your sector.

Illustrative simulation. Every project moves at its own pace and nobody can guarantee a specific position on Google.

From the first meeting to the first report

  1. 01

    We get to know your business

    We meet by video call to learn what you sell, who buys it and what sets you apart.

  2. 02

    Diagnosis

    We look for what is slowing your site down and where there is room to grow. You get it in writing.

  3. 03

    Doing the work

    Technical fixes, content and links, in order of impact and with no filler tasks.

  4. 04

    Report and adjust

    We look at what worked, show it to you and decide the next step together.

Frequently asked questions about SEO in Berkeley

Can't find your question? Write to us and we'll reply within 24 hours.

Talk to the team
How long does SEO take to show results?

The first changes tend to appear after a few months, and from there the growth builds on itself. A lot depends on the state of the site and on how hard your competitors are pushing, so we prefer to give you a time frame once we have seen it.

Do you do national and international SEO, or only local?

We do all three. A business that sells in one city, a brand that sells across a whole country and a company with its site in several languages all get the same method. Only the scale changes. In the audit we tell you which scale makes sense for you.

Do I need a new website to do SEO?

In most cases, no. We work on your current site. If it has an underlying problem that blocks progress, we tell you at the start and you decide. If a rebuild does make sense, the same team does web design, so the SEO is planned into the new site from the first day.

Does SEO work for an online store?

Yes. In an online store every category and every product is a way in from Google. Putting them in a sensible order, writing descriptions of your own and making the pages load quickly is what moves the most sales. We also check that duplicate and out-of-stock pages are not getting in the way.

What about the searches people now make in AI assistants?

We work on those too. We call it GEO, and the aim is for AI assistants to name your company in their answers. A good part of what is done for SEO counts there as well. Nobody controls what an assistant says, so we check it regularly and tell you what we find.

What happens if I stop doing SEO?

Your rankings do not vanish the day you stop, because the improvements stay on your site. What you lose is momentum: no new content, no new links, and competitors who carry on tend to overtake you in time. How fast that happens depends on how hard your sector competes.
