The Brief

Linggard and Thomas Accountants are accountancy specialists who work with a range of different clients across Cornwall and the UK.

Search Hog were tasked with improving their organic and paid search visibility for local keywords to help them pick up more clients.

With no accountancy SEO work done on the site previously there was a lot of scope for improvement and so, utilising the tactics below, we were able to see excellent results with organic sessions up a massive 805% YoY. Much of this traffic improvement was on content pieces but this also fed through to key improvement on local keywords into the top 4 places for local searches for key terms such as: ‘newquay accountant’, ‘hospitality accountant’ and ‘cornwall accountant’.
