SEO for Architects

We look after the Google Business Profile, the project type and area pages, the reviews and the monthly reporting for architecture practices across the UK that want more enquiries from local searches.

Our SEO for architects gets your practice in front of people searching nearby, on the map and in the results underneath it. We look after your Google Business Profile, build the project type and area pages you're missing and keep the reviews coming. Every month you can see what we did and what moved.

Get More Enquiries From Local Searches

When someone nearby searches for an architect they've often got a project in mind. Our SEO puts your practice in front of them, on the map and in the results, before they shortlist anyone.

Top of the Map Near You

We work on your Google Business Profile and your reviews so you show in the three map results when people nearby search for an architect or an extension architect.

A Page for Every Project

Extensions, new homes, listed buildings and commercial work each get a page for the towns you want. That gives Google something to rank for every project you take on.

Every Enquiry Tracked

We count each call and form by the page and the search behind it. You'll see which projects the SEO is winning you and where to push next.

Architects & Trades We Help

Here's some of our recent work for architects, trades and the other businesses we build for. Every site is built to rank locally and turn visitors into enquiries.

How We Do SEO for Architects

Six things decide whether a practice shows up for the projects it wants. Five of them never finish because competitors move, Google changes what it rewards and reviews dry up the month you stop asking.

  • Your Google Business Profile rebuilt, with the right categories, every service and photos of your own schemes
  • A page for every project type and every town with real search demand
  • A review habit at every handover, with the wording and the card to make it easy
  • Your practice details identical across Google, Houzz and the RIBA directory
  • Website changes each month wherever the data shows lost enquiries
  • A written report every month on what we did, what moved and what's on your side

Google Business Profile

We rebuild your profile properly because local searches for an architect show the map first. That means Architect as the primary category, every service with its own description, a service area that matches the towns you cover and photos of your own schemes instead of stock. Changes go in one at a time with the map read either side to show what each one did.

Google needs a page to rank for each project type in each town. An extension page for the town you want more extension work in will do more than a portfolio page that mentions everything once. We plan the pages the data supports and build them in batches.

You get the wording and the card to ask every client at handover. Then we reply to each review in your voice. A review that mentions the project and the town tells the next client far more than a star rating.

We make your practice details identical across the directories and maps Google checks, Bing Places, Apple Business Connect and Houzz included, plus the RIBA directory if you’re listed.

Once tracking is live we can see which pages bring in enquiries and which don’t. Each month we fix the page that’s losing you enquiries, or turn a finished scheme into a page that can rank.

Every month you get a written report with the map of your town read on the same day, your enquiries by page and source, what we did and a column for what’s on your side. We also keep a standing watch on how AI answers describe your business.

Our SEO Process

SEO takes sound strategy and steady work every month. We follow a clear process so you always know what we're doing and why.

1. Research & Local Audit

We audit your Google Business Profile, your website and your listings, and study the businesses holding the map and the top results in your area, so we know exactly what it’ll take to outrank them. For a practice that means who ranks for extensions, new homes and each other project type you want.

Using the research, we write a prioritised plan: the profile fixes, the pages your site is missing and the technical work, in the order that makes the biggest difference first. Usually that starts with pages for the project types worth most to you, in the towns you most want to work in.

We rebuild your Google Business Profile, correct your details across the directories, add LocalBusiness schema and fix anything on the site that’s holding it back. Your RIBA and ARB details go where Google and your clients both look for them.

Each month we build the next pages in the plan, keep the reviews coming and track your map positions and enquiries, and your report shows what we did, what moved and what’s next. That includes a map of your area taken on the same day each month for a fair comparison.

What Our Clients Say

Architect SEO FAQs

How long does SEO take for an architecture firm?

The first profile changes often show on the map within 4 to 8 weeks. Pages, reviews and listings take longer to add up, with the bigger gains over 3 to 6 months. Enquiries can lag behind the rankings because clients plan months ahead. Nobody can promise a position by a date, but your report shows each month side by side.

A minimal SEO retainer starts at a few hundred pounds a month and a comprehensive one runs into the thousands. We always start with a website audit so the scope is set from what your site and profile actually need. You’ll have a fixed monthly figure before any work starts. Get in touch and we’ll tell you where we’d start.

Ads work this week and stop when you stop paying. SEO builds over months and keeps working after it’s paid for. That suits a decision clients take months to make.

Not always, but it helps. We do our best SEO work on websites we build and host because we can change anything the data says needs changing. Your current site is fine to work with if it’s sound and we can have full access to it. If it’s holding you back we’ll say so and quote a rebuild separately. Web design for architects covers what a rebuild involves.

The usual reasons are a primary category that doesn’t match the job people search for, a service area that doesn’t match the towns you cover, details that disagree with your other listings or a profile that’s barely been filled in. Our guide to optimising a Google Business Profile walks through each one.

Usually, yes. Referred clients still search for you before they get in touch. What they find needs to back the recommendation up. SEO also brings in people who don’t yet know anyone to ask.

We count every call and form by the page it came from and the source that brought it. Your town’s map is read on the same day every month to compare like with like. It all goes in a written report with what we did and what’s next.
