Three examples of SEO in San Mateo

  • Law firms

    Hardly anyone searches for "lawyer" on its own. They search for "employment lawyer in San Mateo" or "unfair dismissal", so we build a page for each practice area and each problem.

  • Solar panel installers

    Someone looking for solar panels compares three or four quotes. To be one of them you have to rank near the top in San Mateo and explain savings, timings and grants well.

  • Architecture firms

    A firm is found through what it builds: "passive house", "loft conversion", "architect for a renovation in San Mateo". Each type of project deserves its own page.

Everything we do for your SEO in San Mateo

We start by listening. Once we know what you offer and how people look for it, we decide where to begin and what can wait.

  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

    We find out which words people use to look for you, how often, and who shows up in your place today. That tells us what is worth going after.

  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

    Links planned project by project, to build the authority you need against your competitors.

  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 connect your site to the measurement tools so we know which searches bring customers and which only bring visits.

What moving up the results looks like

The top few results take most of the clicks. It happens with "employment lawyer san mateo", with "solar panel installation san mateo" and with any search in your sector.

  1. We find the searches with potential for your business.
  2. We fix what is holding your website back.
  3. We improve the key pages and content.
  4. We build authority with quality links.

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

SEO in San Mateo: the questions we hear most

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?

SEO is a medium-term investment. The first movements usually show within the first few months, and solid results come with continued work. After the audit we give you a realistic estimate for your case, based on where your site stands today and who you are competing with.

Do you guarantee the number one spot on Google?

No, and be wary of anyone who promises it. Google decides the order and changes it often. We commit to the part that does depend on us: the work done each month, and showing you the results, good or bad, in a report you can understand.

You are based in Spain. How does that work for a business in San Mateo?

We are based in Murcia, Spain, and work with clients abroad remotely. Meetings are by video call, in English, at a time that fits your working day. You get a report every month and can write to the team in between. We usually reply within 24 hours.

Can I do SEO and Google Ads at the same time?

Of course. Many businesses start with ads while SEO gathers strength, and then lower the ad spend gradually. We also run paid search, so we can coordinate the two: the ads show which searches turn into sales and the SEO work goes after those first.

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.

Shall we look at where your site stands on Google?

We analyze your website, your rankings and your competitors, at local, national or international level. You receive a report with the priority actions for your brand.
