ACCOUNTING SEO

SEO for Accounting Firms

Accounting search demand is a strange mix. Local and steady most of the year, then a sharp spike around tax deadlines. Good SEO for an accounting firm has to handle both, not just chase whichever one is easier.

8+ years of SEO experience — no obligation.

We rely entirely on referrals. Referrals are great until they slow down. SEO builds a second channel that keeps working even when word of mouth doesn’t.

We rank fine most of the year but disappear at tax season. That’s usually a content timing problem, not a rankings problem. I plan seasonal content early enough to actually be ready.

Our website looks dated and it shows. A site that looks like it hasn’t been touched since 2015 undermines trust before anyone reads a word of copy.

What's included

What you get

Service-specific pages

Separate, properly built pages for bookkeeping, payroll, tax returns, and whatever else you offer, instead of one page trying to rank for everything at once.

Local SEO and Google Business Profile

Most accounting searches are local. Getting your Google Business Profile, reviews, and citations right is often the fastest way to move the needle.

Seasonal content planning

Getting tax-deadline and year-end content live with enough runway to actually rank before the search spike hits, not published the week everyone’s already Googling it.

Trust-focused content

Content that answers the real questions people have before switching accountants, written in plain English instead of accounting jargon.

Technical SEO

A fast, clean, mobile-friendly site. The basics that get skipped when the website was the last priority on the list.

FAQ

Questions people ask before we start

How much does SEO cost for an accounting firm?

Expect to invest at least £1,000 a month for work that properly covers technical fixes, content, and local optimisation. Firms with multiple services or locations usually spend more. I’ll walk you through what’s realistic before we start.

When should we start SEO for tax season?

Earlier than feels necessary. Content usually needs a few months to rank, so work aimed at a tax-deadline spike should start well before the deadline itself, not the month of.

Can you help with multiple office locations?

Yes. Each location gets its own properly built page, so Google, and the people searching, can tell exactly which office is closest to them.

How long until we see results?

Local improvements can show up within weeks. Broader, competitive terms usually take a few months of consistent work.
