SEO for businesses in Des Moines

Des Moines has 213,096 residents according to the US Census Bureau estimates for 2024, which makes it the largest city in Iowa. That puts it 110th in the national ranking of cities. We have pages for 3 cities in Iowa.

A mid-sized city is a good fit for local SEO. People search with the city name a lot, and in most sectors there is still room near the top. Our office is in Murcia, Spain, about 7,500 km (4,700 miles) away and usually 7 hours ahead of you. We meet by video call. Nearby, we also cover Cedar Rapids, Omaha and Davenport.

How people search in Des Moines

  • Law firms

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

  • Renovation companies

    Renovation work is chosen on photos and reviews. We rank one page per type of job (kitchens, bathrooms, whole homes) and per area of Des Moines, each with finished projects.

  • 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 Des Moines and explain savings, timings and grants well.

Everything we do for your SEO in Des Moines

Before we change a single comma on your website, we ask questions: what you sell, who buys it, why they choose you and which words they type. The plan comes out of those answers.

  1. 01

    Technical audit

    A full check of the part nobody sees: loading speed, pages Google cannot find, broken links and structure.

  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

    One page per service and per important question, well written and with your own facts. It is what Google rewards and what convinces the customer.

  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

    Each month you get a short, clear report: what we did, what went up, what went down and what comes next.

What moving up the results looks like

Try it yourself: search for "employment lawyer des moines" and count how many results you read before deciding. Your customers do the same when they search for "kitchen renovation des moines".

  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.

From the first meeting to the first report

  1. 01

    Starting point

  2. 02

    Status report

    We review your site alongside those of your competitors and tell you, in order of importance, what needs doing.

  3. 03

    Doing the work

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

  4. 04

    Measure and improve

Questions to ask before paying for SEO in Des Moines

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?

Longer than paid ads, and usually less than people fear. Technical fixes can show within weeks. New content and links take months to count, because Google needs time to trust them. We tell you which searches should move first, so you can judge progress early.

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

All three. Local SEO for businesses that sell in their own city, national SEO for brands and online stores that compete across a country, and international SEO with a version of the site per country and language, content adapted to each market and links from media there.

Do you guarantee the number one spot on Google?

No. Nobody can guarantee it honestly, because the algorithm does not answer to any agency. What we do give you is a method and a clear view of the work: you will know what we are doing, why we are doing it and what results it brings.

Do I need a new website to do SEO?

Almost never. The usual approach is to improve the site you have. We only suggest rebuilding it when the technology or the structure makes ranking impossible, and in that case we explain why, with data, before anything is touched. The decision is always yours.

How often will you tell me how it is going?

Every month you get a report with what we did and the results. If a question comes up in between, you write to us and we answer, usually within 24 hours. There is no need to wait for the next report to ask why something moved.

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.
