Keyword Research

A look at your market and competing firms before any design decisions.

First Impressions Matter

Your website should not be the weak link.

Most consultants either have a site that feels dated and underperforms, or they're launching new and can't afford to get the first impression wrong. A slow or generic site affects how prospects perceive your expertise, even when the quality of your work is excellent.

  • Slow sites signal poor quality and lose prospects immediately.

  • Without SEO foundations, you're invisible to prospects searching for you.

  • Generic messaging makes it hard to justify premium fees.

What decision makers notice first

  • How clearly the firm explains its value
  • Visual polish and perceived professionalism
  • Page speed and usability across devices
  • How easy it is to understand next steps
  • Whether messaging matches their goals

Why SEO Matters for Consulting Firms

Prospects researching a consultant search for a specific problem, like "operations consultant for manufacturing," and compare a handful of firms before reaching out. A consulting website is not competing on design alone, it is competing on whether Google trusts it enough to show it first.

01

Service Pages

A dedicated page for each service or industry focus tends to outrank one page trying to describe everything the firm does.

02

Credibility Signals

Case studies and specific outcomes give Google real content to index, not just a bio and a contact form.

03

Page Speed

A slow site undercuts the credibility a consultant is trying to establish, and tends to lose that visitor before it ever loads.

04

Real Content Depth

Thin pages with a couple hundred words rarely hold a top position for long, even if they rank briefly after launch.

A consulting website built around this structure, rather than a single homepage trying to cover everything, is what tends to move a site from the bottom of page one into the top three results over time.

About The Process

Five clear phases from first call to launch.

Starts with a one-on-one call to discuss your goals, audience, and the purpose of your website. This is where I learn what sets your business apart and what success looks like for you. By the end, you'll have a clear picture of the plan, and I'll have everything needed to put together a detailed proposal.

Free 30-Minute Call

A no-pressure conversation with no commitment required to get started.

No Prep Needed

Just bring your ideas. A few reference sites or competitor examples help, but nothing is required.

Fit & Strategy Confirmed

By the end, it's clear whether it's a good fit and there's a solid approach mapped out.

Proposal to Follow

After the call, you'll receive a detailed proposal with goals, scope, timeline, and pricing.

Once the proposal is approved, planning begins. I outline your site structure, content needs, project timeline, and relevant competitor insights. Before design begins, you'll know exactly which pages are being built, what content is required, and when each milestone will be delivered.

Site Structure & Content Map

Every page planned before design begins so nothing gets missed.

Keyword Research

I review what others in your space are doing so your site is positioned to stand out.

Clear Timeline

Each milestone is mapped out so you know exactly what to expect and when.

Flexible Until Design Begins

Priorities shift, and adjustments to the plan are easy to make before design work starts.

With the plan approved, I move into design. This phase is about establishing the right visual direction for your brand and getting alignment on the look and feel. You'll review mockups, share feedback, and sign off on the direction before development begins.

Mockups for Approval

Page mockups are shared to establish the look and feel before development begins.

Unlimited Revisions

No revision caps. Refinements continue until you're completely happy with the look and feel.

Brand Direction First

Colors, fonts, and visual style are locked in early so there's a clear direction going into development.

No Brand Assets Required

I can work with what you have or suggest colors, fonts, and visuals that fit your goals.

Once the design is approved, development begins. I build using modern, high-performance tools like Next.js and Tailwind CSS, ensuring your site loads fast, looks great on every device, and follows SEO best practices. You'll receive progress updates and can preview the site in a private test environment before launch.

How long does it take to build a consulting website?

The timeline varies greatly depending on your individual needs, but most projects are finished in 2 to 6 weeks.

Why does SEO matter for consultants?

Prospects researching consultants often start with a Google search. If your site isn't structured properly, you're invisible to people already looking for your expertise. Technical SEO foundations are built into every project.

How do I get my consulting site to rank higher?

Clean page structure, fast load times, and content that clearly targets the problems your ideal clients are searching for. A well-structured site with specific service and expertise pages will outrank a generic brochure site every time.

What actually drives more consulting inquiries?

Credibility and clarity. Prospects need to quickly understand what you do, who you help, and why you're the right fit. A slow or vague site loses them before they get to your contact form.

What if I already have a website?

I'll audit what you have and identify what's holding it back. The new site is built better, and if there's existing search traffic worth protecting, the transition is handled to preserve it.
