SEO
I'm Ben - a freelance web developer & SEO specialist with 15 years of experience building high-performance, conversion-focused WordPress sites. I don't just build websites that look good. I build sites that generate revenue.
Competing for page one in Australia’s toughest search market
Sydney is the most competitive SEO market in the country. With more businesses per capita than anywhere else in Australia, ranking on page one for valuable search terms takes a serious, sustained effort. Most businesses that try SEO give up too early, or get burned by agencies that promise fast results and deliver nothing lasting.
I take a different approach. I work directly with Sydney business owners — no account managers, no junior staff — to build and execute an SEO strategy that’s designed for your specific market, your competitors, and your revenue goals. From the CBD to the Northern Beaches, Eastern Suburbs to Western Sydney, I tailor every strategy to the search landscape that matters to your business.
What you can expect
Ranking well in Sydney takes 12–18 months of disciplined, strategic work. Each month, I’ll present a detailed report with every task itemised and measurable. We’ll have a strategy call to go through results, discuss priorities, and keep the campaign aligned with your business goals.
No lock-in contracts. No retainers you can’t cancel. You pay as you go, and I prove my value through the numbers. In a market as tough as Sydney, that’s the only way I’d want to work — and it’s why my clients stay.

Built to perform.
Not just impress.
Conversion Optimised
Every element is designed with one goal: turning visitors into customers. Layouts, CTAs, and copy all work together to drive your desired outcome.
Pagespeed Obsessed
Slow websites lose customers. I build lean, fast WordPress sites that score well in Core Web Vitals and keep bounce rates low.
Built on Wordpress
The platform powering over 40% of the web. Your site runs on open-source software you own outright, with no proprietary lock-in, no platform fees, and a massive ecosystem.
Mobile First
The majority of your visitors are on mobile. Every site I build is designed mobile-first and tested across all screen sizes.
No Lock-in
You own everything — the code, the content, the hosting relationship. No proprietary systems, no dependency on me after handover.
SEO-Ready Foundation
Clean code, proper heading structure, schema markup, and site speed - your site is built to rank from day one.

- I want to work with passionate business owners that understand the importance of a long term strategy for Search Engine Optimisation.
- Every month I’ll need about an hour or two of your time for our strategy meeting to achieve the best results. I’ll be in constant communication with you and require regular feedback and direction. You know your business better than I, so I’ll need time to extract that knowledge from you and reflect that in my work.
- SEO is a long term investment. If you expect results overnight; I can’t help you. I want to work with established businesses that plan to invest for the long term success of their business.
Our first phone call
If you call me, I’ll make sure you’re aware of my rates and ask some basic questions about your business – this is to determine if SEO is a good strategy for your business. I’m not interested in taking on clients I can’t generate a positive Return on Investment for.
I’ll learn more about your business, namely, to identify the direction you want to take the business, where’s the money in your industry, and what you’ve done in terms of digital marketing.
If I think we’ll be a great match I’ll ask for a few days to audit your website and prepare a presentation.
The Presentation
I’ll need about 40 minutes of your time to cover a sales presentation so you can learn more about me, my processes, and the results I’ve produced previously.I’ll be talking about:
- My past experience and results
- My process and why I’m different to other SEOs
- A quick audit of your site to show you where your website is at, where you need work and recommendations
- Long term Strategy & Pricing.
Moving forward and measuring results
Unlike other SEO agencies, you’ll be dealing directly with me and won’t be juggled between staff. You’ll be aware of everything that I’m doing each month in terms of:
Onpage optimisation; things like implementing conversion tracking, improving content and keyword optimisation to the really technical stuff of reverse engineering your competitors.
Offpage optimisation; link building (Google My Business, Bing Places, online directories) and performing outreach to other websites related to your industry requesting links or inclusions and sharing recently published content.
I hear you say – “I don’t have time to be writing content” Don’t stress – I take care of that too.
End of MonthAt the end of each month I’ll send you an itemised work summary sheet that shows you what I’ve covered in that month, planned work for the upcoming month and a list of recommendations. You’ll also receive a Google Analytics report detailing the overall performance of your website, no confusing charts or diagrams, just the things that matter: enquiries, sales and revenue. I’ll also organise a strategy call for an hour or so worth of your time so I can show you what’s been done, confirm you’ve closed all the leads and to confirm if my figures align with your accounts, as well as pick your brains for the upcoming month of work.
