Why us

An agency that gets small business

01 · Small business focused

Built around your scale

We work mostly with owner-run small businesses. We understand small budgets, lean teams and the need for real returns rather than fancy slide decks. Everything we build is sized for your business.

02 · Real

Focused on enquiries

We measure calls, visits and form fills rather than vanity rankings. The kind of progress you can actually see at the end of the month, with reports that read in plain English.

03 · Honest

No long tie-in

Free audit first. Flexible monthly terms. You stay because the work delivers, not because a contract traps you for a year.

What we do

Four areas, one programme

01

Google Business Profile and Maps

Win the map pack. We optimise your Google Business Profile and the surrounding signals to put your business in front of the customers who are searching for what you sell, right at the moment they want it.

02

On-site SEO and service pages

Pages built to rank. Site structure, service pages, on-page content and schema built around the keywords your customers actually use, so your website does the heavy lifting alongside the map listing.

03

Social media campaigns

Where your customers spend time. Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn campaigns that put your business in front of customers on the platforms they actually use every day, with content that drives them back to you.

04

Reporting focused on enquiries

Track what matters. Monthly reporting on visibility, rankings, calls, form fills and direction requests, with quarterly deep-dive audits on top, so you can see exactly how the work is affecting your enquiries and your bottom line.

Channels we manage

Every channel that brings customers

From Google Search and Maps to Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. All of it included in the £350 monthly package.

The difference

Small business focused vs generic agency

Plenty of agencies will treat you like a small version of a big client. Here is what makes a small business focused agency different.

Path A

Generic agency

  • Enterprise pricing. Not built for small budgets.
  • Vanity reports. Numbers that miss enquiries.
  • Generic playbook. Same approach for every client.
  • 12 month contracts. Locked in regardless.
  • Jargon-heavy. Hard to understand the value.
Path B

Lillian Purge

  • Small business pricing. Built for owner-run firms.
  • Focused on enquiries. Real metrics, plain English.
  • Tailored to you. We learn your business.
  • Flexible terms. No long tie-in.
  • Clear strategy. You know the plan.

Frequently asked

Small business SEO questions

What is SEO for small businesses?
SEO for small businesses is the work of getting your business found by the right people on Google. That means appearing in the search results when someone looks for what you sell, ranking in the map pack for local searches, showing up for near-me queries and getting your website in front of customers who can actually buy from you. It draws on your Google Business Profile, on-page SEO, content, reviews, citations and authority. Done well, it turns Google searches into calls, visits and enquiries from people who can become customers.
How much does SEO cost for a small business?
Our flagship small business package is £350 a month and includes everything most small businesses need: Google Maps optimisation, full website management, service pages, content creation, three social media channels (Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn), quarterly website audits and monthly reporting. We also offer Growth at £750 and Full at £1550 a month for businesses competing in more aggressive markets. We keep terms flexible with no long tie-in, then start with a free SEO audit so you can see what needs doing and which package fits before you commit. If your needs sit between tiers or you want something tailored, we can shape a plan around them.
What is included in the £350 a month small business package?
Nine things every month, all built around getting your small business found: Google Maps optimisation, full website management, service pages built and updated, fresh content creation, an Instagram campaign, a Facebook campaign, a LinkedIn campaign, quarterly website audits and monthly reporting on every channel. It is a complete SEO and social media programme for one monthly fee. You get a free SEO audit first and no long tie-in. The aim is to cover everything a typical small business needs to show up on Google and stay visible on the platforms their customers actually use.
How long does SEO take to work for a small business?
Usually a few months rather than weeks, with results building gradually. Quick fixes to your Google Business Profile and on-page SEO can show movement within weeks, while the larger gains from reviews, content and citations take longer to compound. Most small businesses see meaningful progress over three to six months of consistent work, with results becoming more durable the longer it runs. We are honest about this up front: nobody can guarantee specific rankings or timescales, since they depend on your competition and the state of your current visibility. We focus on steady, sustainable progress measured against the enquiries that come in.
Do you work with small businesses across the UK?
Yes. We work with small businesses across the UK. Most of our work happens online, with monthly reporting, scheduled calls and full visibility on what is happening. For clients who want face-to-face contact we can travel in for kick-off meetings, quarterly strategy reviews and any conversations that really need to happen in person. Plenty of remote agencies do strong work with small businesses, since the underlying SEO signals are the same wherever the business is located. What matters is that we understand your market, know your customers and run the work properly.
Is SEO worth it for a small business?
For most small businesses, yes. Google is usually the first place people go when they want something, so being visible there is often the difference between a busy week and a quiet one. SEO is also cumulative, meaning the work you do this month keeps paying off months and years later, unlike paid ads which stop the moment you stop spending. The honest caveat is that SEO suits businesses that can wait three to six months for meaningful results. If you need leads tomorrow, paid search will fit better short term. For long-term growth, SEO usually wins.
Before you commit

What is included and what to expect

What is included

The £350 package is built to cover everything a typical small business needs to be visible in search and across social. Every month you get Google Maps optimisation, full management of your website, your service pages built and kept up to date, fresh content, three social media campaigns across Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn, then a clear monthly report on every channel. On top of that you get a quarterly deep-dive website audit to spot anything that is drifting and refine the plan. It is one fee for one programme, run by a small business focused team, with no long tie-in and free to cancel at any time.

What to expect, honestly

SEO is steady, compounding work rather than a switch you flip. In the first few weeks the foundations get fixed: your Google Business Profile gets sharpened, the technical and on-page basics get cleaned up, the social channels start running and the first round of content goes live. Quick wins on visibility usually appear within weeks. Over three to six months the bigger gains build as reviews, citations, content and authority compound. The picture you see in your reporting then starts to firm up. Beyond that, the work keeps running. Quarterly audits refine the plan. Progress carries on building from a stronger base.

What we will not do

One thing we do not do is promise specific rankings or guarantee that your phone will ring within a set number of days. We have seen enough of that in this industry to know it sets clients up for disappointment. What we promise instead is honest, consistent work. Monthly reporting that shows you exactly what is happening. A team you can actually talk to. If the work is not delivering for you, you can stop. That is the kind of accountability we think you deserve.
