SEO with or without a new site
You do not need a new website to start SEO. If yours is sound, I can work on it as it is, for a monthly fee quoted for your business, and you can stop whenever you like.
If the site is the problem, I can rebuild it and fold the SEO into five monthly payments. After five months, you choose whether to carry on.
Across Swale
Sittingbourne’s businesses range from units on the Eurolink Industrial Estate to shops on the High Street and in The Forum, with Milton Creek close by and customers coming in from the rest of Swale. A site that lists the areas you really cover helps Google send you the right customers.
Talk to me directly
I work on my own from Ashford and I am happy to visit. Ring, email or use the contact form, and I will reply within 1 to 2 working days.
Getting to you
17.4 miles by road from my base at Sandyhurst Lane, Ashford TN25 4NX: about 26 minutes’ drive without traffic.
Sittingbourne is under half an hour from Ashford, across the Downs. I am happy to meet at a unit on an industrial estate as readily as in a high street office; seeing how you work helps me write about it.

The local business picture
Swale borough had 5,345 businesses at the March 2026 count, and 4,760 of them (89%) were micro businesses with fewer than 10 employees.
Swale’s count includes Faversham and the Isle of Sheppey as well as Sittingbourne. For a firm in one of those places, saying exactly where you are and which parts of Swale you cover is the first job a website has.

Local search checklist for a Sittingbourne business
- If you trade from an industrial estate, name it and give directions to your unit; customers and suppliers both search that way.
- Set your Google Business Profile up as a service-area business if customers never visit you, and list the towns you travel to.
- Add a page for commercial work separately from domestic work if you do both; they are different searches.
- Swale Borough Council’s business, licensing and procurement pages cover rates, licences and council contracts. Swale Borough Council: business, licensing and procurement.
Questions from Sittingbourne businesses
Can you help a trade business with no website yet?
Yes. I design and build sites from scratch, usually in 1 to 2 weeks, and quote each one for the business.
Will you visit our unit in Sittingbourne?
Yes. It is about 17 miles from my base, and meeting where you work is the best way for me to understand the business.
Can I start with SEO only?
Yes. SEO on its own is a monthly fee quoted for your business, and you can stop whenever you like.
Do you write the words for the site?
I write or tidy the copy as part of the work, so each page says plainly what you do and where.
Can the site cover the places I travel to across Swale?
Yes. I write a clear section for each area you genuinely cover, such as Faversham or the Isle of Sheppey, rather than a long list of every town in Kent.
