What does SEO Consulting include?
SEO Consulting is a review of how search engines find, understand and rank your website, followed by clear recommendations. We explain what each issue means, why it matters and who on your team can fix it.
| Area | What we assess |
|---|---|
| Keyword targeting | Which searches each page should rank for, and whether important services have no page at all |
| Site structure | Navigation, URL patterns and internal links between related pages |
| Technical SEO | Crawling, indexing, canonical tags, redirects, sitemaps and robots.txt |
| Content quality | Whether pages answer real customer questions clearly and accurately |
| Page experience | Mobile usability and Core Web Vitals: LCP, INP and CLS |
| Competitors | Who ranks for your main services and what their pages cover that yours do not |
If you prefer Vivid Marketing to do the work, our Search Engine Optimization (SEO) service covers implementation and ongoing improvement.
How do you find what is holding a website back in Google?
We start with Google Search Console, which shows the searches you appear for, the pages Google has indexed and any problems it has reported. That tells us whether the issue is pages not being found, pages not being indexed or pages not matching what people search.
- Not crawled or not indexed: pages blocked by robots.txt, set to noindex, or reported as crawled but not indexed
- Duplicate or thin pages: several pages competing for the same search, or pages with little useful content
- Weak internal links: important service pages that few other pages link to
- Slow or unstable pages: Core Web Vitals outside Google’s good thresholds of LCP 2.5 seconds, INP 200 milliseconds and CLS 0.1
- Missing structured data: no schema.org markup to help search engines understand the business and its services
When the technical side needs detailed work, our Technical SEO service can carry it out.
SEO for Surrey’s competitive service searches
Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in BC, so many service categories have several local businesses competing for the same searches. Clear, specific pages tend to stand out more than broad pages that try to cover everything.
For example, a renovation company might need separate pages for kitchen, basement and bathroom work rather than one general services page. A clinic may need pages for each treatment. We map your services to the searches people actually use, and we note where city or community terms like South Surrey or Langley belong in titles and content.
If most of your customers find you through Google Maps, our Local SEO & Google Maps Consulting focuses on that side instead.

Preparing your site for AI search as well as Google
Tools like Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT search, Gemini and Perplexity answer questions by reading web pages. Clear question-and-answer content and structured data help these tools understand what you do. ChatGPT search draws partly on Bing results, so we also check whether your site is set up in Bing Webmaster Tools.
Good SEO and AI visibility share the same base: pages that are easy to crawl and clearly answer real questions. For a deeper focus, see AI SEO, AEO & GEO Consulting.

Mayank VermaVivid Marketing clientFrequently asked questions
How much does SEO consulting cost?
The cost depends on the size of your website, how many technical issues need investigation, the number of services and locations you target, and whether you want one review or ongoing advice. A ten-page site takes less time than a large ecommerce store. Request the free analysis and we will give you a quote.
How long does SEO take to work?
There is no fixed timeline. It depends on how competitive your searches are, the current state of your site, how quickly recommendations are carried out and how often Google crawls your pages. Technical fixes may be picked up fairly soon, while content and authority usually build over months. We do not promise rankings.
What is the difference between SEO consulting and an SEO website audit?
An SEO Website Audit is a detailed technical and content diagnostic of your site. SEO Consulting includes that kind of review but adds strategy, priorities, keyword planning and ongoing advice on what to do next. If you only need a list of issues for your developer, an audit may be enough.
Do I need to give you access to my website?
Not always. For most consulting, access to Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4 is enough, along with a crawl of your public pages. If you want us to make changes, you can give us a user account on your website platform, which you can remove at any time.
Can you work with my web developer?
Yes. Many businesses that hire an SEO consultant already have a developer or agency that maintains their website. We write recommendations so a developer can act on them, and we are happy to join a call to explain the reasoning behind any change. We can also review changes after they go live.
Do you provide SEO consulting outside Surrey?
Yes. We work with businesses across the Lower Mainland in person when helpful and with clients anywhere in Canada remotely. We adjust keyword and competitor research to your own city and service area, not Surrey’s. Remote clients meet with us by video call and shared screen.
