CLARE ASHBROOK
Local SEO Services
People are already searching for what you offer. I make sure they can find you.
Hi, I’m Clare! I’m an SEO strategist located in Stockport, Greater Manchester, working with small businesses throughout the UK, the USA and worldwide.
My specialism is in local SEO. If you have a business that works in a specific physical location or that serves customers locally, you need local SEO!
You might have a wedding venue, a pottery studio, an acupuncture practice, run retreats, a vegan cafe, tattoo studio or a vintage clothing boutique.
Your ideal customers are searching for your services online - I can help your website show up there.
You won’t just get more visitors to your website, you’ll get more foot traffic and more online inquiries or phone calls.
Does this sound good?
"My retreat filled up seven months early"
“I am a yoga teacher whose primary business is leading retreats. The biggest change that I have seen since starting to work with Clare is that my retreats are filling way earlier than they were a year ago.
One of my retreats recently filled up seven months early. Three or four years ago, I was in tears after a retreat that I felt I worked hard to fill and I actually lost money on. I was close to quitting and finding other work. My rankings are improving and my visibility is much higher.
With Clare’s help, my local ranking has been high for some time, and now I am getting more visibility regionally and even nationally.”

Get found online
For your business to show up online, where your ideal customer is searching, your website needs three things:
A clear SEO foundation so Google understands who you are and what you do.
Content that answers the questions your clients are already asking. This is what builds trust and search visibility.
A simple, supportive plan so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time you want to be seen.
That’s what I help with.
Welcome, I’m Clare
and this is Vinny
My approach foregrounds collaboration and team work, which I think is particularly appreciated by people who have a small business or work on their own. Web design and SEO is a results driven business and working collaboratively sees results. I love feeling part of a team.
My clients know me as supportive, kind and friendly. Someone who works hard, gets results and is rooting for the businesses I work with long after I finish working with them.
"Someone who translates the SEO noise — and gets results"
“If you want someone to help translate the SEO noise and transform it into clicks and progress, and who is also lovely and professional, you’re in wonderful hands with Clare.
Clare was able to lay out what my website needed - and clearly communicated what I should prioritize for my site to make it work harder for me.
In the midst of all of this she would make suggestions to fine tune things and I really appreciated her thoughtfulness paired with her expertise. Our Google meet calls were always so helpful, and she helped me stay on track and hit the goals we set.
Since working together I’ve had an increase in locally-based inquiries and bookings, website clicks, couples interested in sustainably sourced florals for their weddings and I rank on page 1 of Google”

“"Clare supported me with SEO related to my website and blog and the whole experience was brilliant. She's so kind and clearly knowledgeable and translates this in a way that is empowering and encouraging. I often feel overwhelmed by technical things like SEO and Clare was able to make it feel easy and expansive. I felt able to be completely myself and very quickly felt at ease. I ask a lot of questions and Clare was happy to answer all of them. I highly recommend connecting with her about your work!"

“Clare has provided exceptional support for my business. As someone entirely new to SEO, I needed a lot of help to even give her access to the back end of my webpage;) Clare was patient, creative, and resourceful in how she communicated with me, even sending short how-to videos so that I could keep the ball rolling on our work together. She was attentive to the core of my values, and didn't ask me to sacrifice my authenticity in order to work on ranking for searches. Clare is warm, funny, and very talented. I unhesitatingly encourage anyone who needs SEO help to hire Clare Ashbrook today!”
