Hi, I’m Graham. I’ve been in SEO since 2006 — which means I’ve seen every flavour of “ultimate hack” come and go, and I’m still here, unshook, shipping what works. I translate search gobbledygook into tidy roadmaps, then help you implement them without setting anything on fire.

Also: I’m a programmer. When strategy needs muscle, I write it. Crawlers, log parsers, link scrapers, dashboards, doom-proof reporting — if it saves time or proves a point, I’ll build it. Your team gets less copy-paste and more “oh wow, that’s already done.”

TL;DR: I mix a marketer’s instincts with a developer’s toolkit. You get practical changes, measurable results, and fewer meetings that could’ve been a CSV.

How I help (without the faff)

Real fixes, clear reporting, and zero crystal balls.

Technical SEO

Audits, crawling, indexing, CWV, redirects, hreflang. The glamorous world of fixing things you can't see but customers can feel.

Automation & tooling

Custom scripts and dashboards so the busywork does itself and insights stop hiding behind 12 clicks.

Content strategy

Topics, briefs, on-page, internal links. Helpful content first; algorithms can follow along like everyone else.

Local & SMB growth

Make the phone ring. GMB tuned, reviews tidy, and pages that answer questions before customers ask them.

My toolkit (hand-picked, not hoarded)

Tech that earns its keep:

PHP JavaScript Python C# MySQL Tailwind CSS Screaming Frog Search Console GA4 Ahrefs Looker Studio Regex Git

Plain-English comms

We'll use words, not wizardry. You'll know what's happening, why it matters, and what it earned.

Outcome-driven

Rankings are nice; revenue is nicer. We optimise for the metrics that pay for the coffee.

Practical & kind

Low-friction changes that fit your team. We respect calendars and people — results without chaos.

FAQs (short, sweet)

Do you only work with Scottish businesses?

Proudly Scottish, happily global. If you've got a website and time zones, we can make it work.

Absolutely. Big impact, sensible budgets. We'll choose the shortest line between "where you are" and "more enquiries."

What does working together look like?

Quick chat → clear goals → small, high-leverage changes on repeat. You get tidy updates and fewer mysteries.
