SEO investment in Auckland typically ranges from $1,500 to $5,000+ per month depending on your industry competitiveness and goals. Our packages start at $1,500/month and include technical audits, keyword strategy, content optimisation, and monthly reporting. Unlike agencies charging $300-500/month for basic services, we deliver comprehensive strategies that generate real ROI—most clients see 300-500% return within 12 months.

Auckland is New Zealand's most competitive market with 1.7 million potential customers. Local SEO ensures your business appears in the 'Map Pack' and organic results when customers search for services in your area. We optimise your Google Business Profile, build local citations on Yellow NZ, Finda, and Localist, and create suburb-specific landing pages to dominate from Ponsonby to Manukau, Takapuna to Botany.

In NZ's less saturated market, you'll typically see initial improvements within 3-4 months: better rankings for long-tail keywords, increased organic traffic, and more enquiries. Significant results appear by months 6-8, with compound growth continuing through year one. Local SEO often shows faster results (2-3 months) for 'near me' searches. Our fastest result: Page 1 rankings in 6 weeks for a niche Auckland service business.

Absolutely. While we specialise in Auckland's competitive market, our strategies are effective nationwide. We work with clients across Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, Tauranga, and regional New Zealand. We tailor our approach to local search behaviours—for example, South Island businesses often need different keyword strategies than North Island competitors.

Three things set us apart: First, we combine traditional SEO with AI-powered optimisation (AEO) so you rank in both Google AND AI assistants like ChatGPT. Second, we focus exclusively on revenue-driving keywords, not vanity metrics. Third, we're transparent—no lock-in contracts, detailed monthly reports, and you own all the work we do. Our 94% client retention rate speaks for itself.

We stay ahead of Google's Core Updates by adhering to white-hat practices and focusing on E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness). Our proactive monitoring means we adjust strategies before updates hit. In fact, our clients typically gain rankings after major updates because we build genuine authority, not quick fixes that get penalised.

Any agency guaranteeing specific rankings is either lying or using risky black-hat tactics that could get your site penalised. Instead, we commit to transparent reporting, proven strategies, and measurable improvement. 87% of our clients achieve Page 1 rankings for their primary keywords within 12 months. We guarantee our process, our effort, and our expertise—the results follow naturally.

SEO optimises your website for traditional search engines like Google. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) optimises your brand for AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Google's AI Overviews. With 65% of searches now ending without a click, you need both. We're one of the few NZ agencies offering integrated SEO + AEO strategies. Learn more about our AEO services.

Yes! E-commerce SEO is one of our specialities. We optimise product pages, category structures, technical elements like schema markup, and build strategies for high-intent commercial keywords. We've helped NZ e-commerce brands achieve 200-400% increases in organic revenue. Whether you're on Shopify, WooCommerce, or a custom platform, we have the expertise.

We track metrics that matter to your business: organic traffic growth, keyword rankings (50+ terms), conversion rates, revenue from organic search, and ROI. You'll receive detailed monthly reports with clear explanations—no jargon. Plus quarterly strategy calls to review progress and adjust tactics. We use enterprise tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, and custom dashboards for comprehensive tracking.
