Book Free Audit connorcedro.com/contact-meSEO results are often misrepresented in the industry. Rankings screenshots taken at the right moment, traffic graphs that include branded searches, and case studies from low-competition niches are common ways agencies make mediocre work look impressive. The results shown here are measured against metrics that actually matter to a business: organic traffic from non-branded searches, lead volume from organic channels, and where applicable, revenue directly attributable to organic search visibility.
Every client engagement starts with a baseline measurement — where the site ranks today, what traffic it receives, and what the competitive landscape looks like. Progress is measured against that baseline, not against arbitrary benchmarks or industry averages. This makes the results honest and makes the work accountable in a way that vague "we increased traffic by X%" claims are not.
The industries represented here — jewelry, law, real estate, medical, insurance, wealth management, interior design, and personal training — are genuinely competitive local markets. Ranking in these categories requires real technical SEO work, consistent content production, and link building that takes months to compound.
Most clients see meaningful movement in rankings within 3 to 6 months. Traffic and lead volume typically follow 1 to 2 months after rankings improve. Competitive industries like law and real estate take longer — 6 to 12 months for significant gains. The results shown here reflect 12 to 24 month engagements where compounding had time to work.
The primary industries are law firms, medical practices, jewelry stores, real estate agents, wealth managers, interior designers, insurance agencies, and personal trainers. Most client work is concentrated in the Tampa Bay area, with some national clients in competitive verticals like e-commerce and SaaS.
No. Any SEO consultant who guarantees specific rankings is either misleading you or targeting keywords so low in competition that ranking for them provides no business value. What is guaranteed is transparent reporting, honest assessment, and a strategy built around keywords that actually convert — not vanity metrics designed to make the work look better than it is.
Every engagement starts with a technical audit and keyword strategy session. Month one focuses on technical fixes and on-page optimization. Months two through four build out content clusters and internal linking. From month five onward, the focus shifts to link building and content expansion. Monthly reporting covers rankings, traffic, and lead volume — not just activity metrics.
