Local SEO That Gets Leeds Businesses Found
If you run a business in Leeds, your customers are searching for you on Google right now. "Web design Leeds", "solicitor near me", "best restaurant in Leeds" — these queries have real commercial intent and the businesses on page one are getting the calls.
Our local SEO service is built around three pillars: technical excellence, content authority, and local signals. We fix the technical issues that hold your site back, create content that demonstrates your expertise, and strengthen the local signals (Google Business Profile, citations, reviews) that tell Google you are a legitimate Leeds business.
This is not guesswork. Every decision is backed by data from Google Search Console, RankLift (our proprietary SEO intelligence platform), and DataForSEO. We track your rankings weekly, report transparently, and adjust the strategy based on what the data tells us.
Technical SEO Audits
Before we can improve your rankings, we need to understand what is holding you back. Our technical SEO audit examines over 85 factors across site architecture, crawlability, indexing, page speed, mobile usability, schema markup, and content quality.
Common issues we find on Leeds business websites include: slow page load times from bloated WordPress themes, missing or incorrect schema markup, thin content that fails to demonstrate expertise, poor internal linking structure, and indexing problems where Google cannot find or will not rank key pages.
The audit produces a prioritised action plan — not a 50-page PDF you will never read, but a ranked list of fixes ordered by SEO impact. We tell you exactly what to fix, why it matters, and what ranking improvement to expect.
Google Business Profile Management
Your Google Business Profile is often the first thing a potential customer sees. For local searches in Leeds, the map pack (the top 3 GBP results) captures the majority of clicks. If you are not in it, you are invisible.
We fully optimise your GBP: correct categories, complete service descriptions, regular Google Posts, photo management, Q&A monitoring, and review response strategy. We also manage your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) consistency across directories to reinforce your local authority.
For service-area businesses in Leeds, we configure the GBP service area settings correctly so you appear for searches across Leeds, West Yorkshire, and your target locations without violating Google's guidelines.
Content Strategy for SEO
Rankings require content. Not thin, keyword-stuffed blog posts — genuinely useful content that answers the questions your target customers are asking and demonstrates your expertise in your field.
We research the keywords your competitors rank for but you do not, identify content gaps, and build a publishing calendar that systematically fills those gaps. Every piece of content is optimised for both traditional search and AI search engines (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity).
Our content approach is built around topical authority — creating clusters of related content that tell search engines you are the definitive source on your subject. For a Leeds solicitor, that might mean a cluster covering employment law, tribunal process, settlement agreements, and related topics. For a restaurant, it might be local food guides, seasonal menus, and Leeds dining culture.
AI Search & Citation Optimisation
Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity are changing how people find businesses. Instead of clicking through to ten blue links, users increasingly get AI-generated answers that cite a handful of sources — and if your site is not one of those sources, you are invisible in the new search landscape.
We optimise your content for AI citation by structuring pages so language models can extract clear, authoritative answers. That means well-structured headings, concise definitions, entity-rich copy, and schema markup that makes your expertise machine-readable. We also monitor your brand's presence across AI platforms to track whether your business is being cited, misrepresented, or missing entirely.
This is not a separate service bolted on to traditional SEO — it is how SEO works now. The same technical foundations that help you rank in Google (clean architecture, topical authority, structured data) are what get you cited in AI answers. We make sure your site is built for both.
Transparent SEO Reporting
You will never wonder what we are doing or whether it is working. Every client gets monthly reports showing keyword rankings, organic traffic trends, indexing status, technical health scores, and the specific actions we took that month.
We use RankLift to track your SEO performance in real time — you can log in and see your rankings, technical issues, content gaps, and backlink profile whenever you want. No vanity metrics, no vague promises about "improved visibility". Just clear data showing where you rank, how that is changing, and what we are doing next.

Common Questions
Leodis Digital's SEO management is included in our Grow (£399/mo), Lead (£699/mo), and Dominate (£1,100/mo) plans. Standalone SEO audits are available as one-off projects. The investment depends on your market competitiveness and goals — a Leeds solicitor competing for "solicitor Leeds" needs a different level of effort than a niche B2B company.
Technical fixes (page speed, indexing issues, schema markup) can show results within days. Ranking improvements for competitive keywords typically take 3–6 months of consistent work. Local SEO for less competitive terms in Leeds can show movement within 4–8 weeks. We set realistic timescales during the audit phase.
No legitimate SEO agency guarantees specific rankings — Google's algorithm considers hundreds of factors outside any agency's control. What we guarantee is transparent work, data-driven decisions, and clear reporting. Our track record shows consistent ranking improvements for clients who commit to the recommended strategy.
We use Google Search Console (direct data from Google), RankLift (our proprietary SEO intelligence platform), DataForSEO (keyword research and competitor analysis), and Majestic (backlink analysis). RankLift gives you real-time access to your SEO data — rankings, technical issues, content gaps, and indexing status — so you always know exactly where you stand.
Yes. If your site has been hit by a Google algorithm update or manual action, we can diagnose the cause and build a recovery plan. Common issues include thin content penalties, unnatural link profiles, and mobile usability failures. Recovery timelines vary but typically take 2–4 months of focused work.
AI citation is when tools like Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, or Perplexity reference your website as a source in their AI-generated answers. As more users get answers directly from AI instead of clicking search results, being cited becomes critical for visibility and traffic. We optimise your content structure, schema markup, and topical authority so AI systems recognise your business as an authoritative source worth citing.
Yes. While we specialise in the Leeds and West Yorkshire market, our technical SEO and content strategy services are effective for any UK business. Local SEO services are most impactful for businesses targeting a specific geographic area.
