Our SEO Services for Educational Institutions

As such, some SEO services are more suitable to some companies than others. Below you’ll find the SEO services that we find works best for educational institutions.

Local SEO

As an educational institution, chances are that location is a key factor for your customers. As such, we place a large focus on local SEO in order to make your website discoverable for local keywords. We also recommend implementing Google My Business to ensure that your business appears on Google searches, on map features, and on business listings.

Content/On-Page SEO

Operating in the world of education means that you need to showcase Experience, Expertise, Authority and Trustworthiness (E-E-A-T) across your website. We do this through your content and other on-page factors, taking every opportunity to highlight why users should choose you over your competitors.

Mobile SEO

An important factor to consider when optimising your website is that, these days, most people browse the internet on mobile devices, particularly when searching for local businesses.
