What's the difference between SEO and Google Ads?

Google Ads is a brilliant way of getting your website to the top of Google without any prior work to your website. You have to pay ‘per click’ you receieve as a result of your advert displaying on Google. SEO on the other hand is a (typically) much longer process that requires investment up-front and on-going but generally has a better long term ROI and Click-Through-Rate to your website.


24

How do you know if my website will rank?

For every enquiry/project we perform a SEO audit to understand the difficulty and estimate the work required to get your website ranking. If we don’t feel we can achieve results in the budget of our customer, we will not work with the customer.


25

All articles, blogs, website copy and videos are produced by the RJM Digital team. If you wish to provide your original photography please send it to use via e-mail. Alternatively, we can advise you on stock photography that is free or purchased.

Is there a minimum term contract?

For all monthly packages there is a 3 month minimum term. After the minimum term there is a one month notice period. Although we aim to produce results quickly, it generally takes 3 months to see the full benefit.

Can you help us with making changes to code after launch?

Of course! We either charge by the hour for changes or for larger requests we provide a fixed cost quote.

Can you provide hosting for our project?

Will I own the source code?

Yes, with all of our bespoke web development projects you will own the source code to put on your own servers / infrastructure.

Can we purchase ad-hoc SEO services from you?

If you have a specific SEO requirement such as technical SEO or support with Keyword Research then we can provide advice on these requests.
