SEO Services - Expand Your Market Reach with EcoSeo
We don’t start with algorithms or keywords, we start with you. Your brand story, your audience, and what success looks like for you. All that other stuff builds from that foundation.
In short, we focus on what matters: turning your online visibility into growth. Real, measurable, compounding, sustainable growth.
It’s equal parts (the not so glamorous) white hat elements of research, data and technical prowess, but also the creative elements that help to brand stand out and be memorable. Whether your target audience is in Cape Town, across South Africa, or across the globe, we make sure they can find you — and more importantly, engage with you when they do.
And we’ve got data to back that up. A BrightEdge study in 2019 revealed that 53% of all website traffic originates from organic search. Over half. And this is why SEO is still one of the cornerstones of digital marketing and why many businesses choose EcoSEO: not only to increase your rankings, but to do so with a long-term compounding effect.
We don’t make decisions based on gut feelings or outdated rules. We’re data-driven, yes, but it’s the right data. You’ll have access to a comprehensive, monthly report with honest insights into what’s working, where to focus and how your online presence is compounding every month.

How we do SEO
We at EcoSEO view SEO in somewhat similar terms to building a town. You can’t just build a couple of houses and a pub, put them on a page, and expect people to turn up. You need a map. You need to clear the land, pour the foundation, build places that are attractive to the people who will move there, and place subtle signposts that will lead them to the right building when the time is right. We use a combination of investigative, empirical, editorial, and anecdotally local SEO to help your site not only move up in the rankings but turn traffic into leads.
- Discovery & Forensic Audit – With tools such as Botify and Ahrefs at our disposal, we start by diagnosing your existing site. We gain an awareness of competitors’ activities, we look for keyword intent, and then audit your site with an emphasis on crawling and finding previously undiscovered website bugs. The discovery phase provides you with a transparent view into the working and non-working parts of your site and some much-needed awareness of your biggest opportunities, those with real and meaningful impact on ROI.
- Content Strategy & UX Optimisation – This is where the art of editorial SEO really comes into play.Content, while it is still fundamentally important for relevance (keyword inclusion) is no longer a “filler” content game. The content should help answer real user queries, not just assume them from the SERP. The content needs to engage the user. What that actually means are headlines that capture attention, CTAs that subliminally prime action, images/videos to aid the user in understanding, but also copy that’s finely adjusted to semantic intent often through live user analytics from session-recording tools such as Hotjar or CrazyEgg.
- Strategy & Tactical Roadmap – We then build a dynamic and live 90/180/365 day roadmap based on the site and data analysis.Everything is clear on what is in scope, business objective (traffic, leads, revenue), initiative ownership, KPI/target (LCP < 2.5 seconds) and timescales. Initiatives are also clear on what exactly needs to be done so as to leave as little “optimise this” type tasks that waste time and provide no value.
- Technical Foundation & Site Architecture – Many technical foundations, re-engineering and on-site architecture optimisation components are usually implemented after strategy definition in your SEO plan.A well-defined technical foundation is important. Things such as page speed & mobile rendering, canonicalisation, URL redirect strategies, redirect chains, XML sitemaps, file compression and lastly but not least JSON-LD schema markup implementation: All these technical SEO items clear the way and serve to improve the crawlability and indexability of a site.
- Authority Building & High-Quality Link Acquisition – We don’t go after links for the sake of numbers.Instead, we focus on quality and context: local news features, long-standing industry partnerships, or expert roundups that actually make sense for your brand. Every outreach is carefully tailored to a specific piece of content that genuinely earns the link. And yes, we stick closely to Google’s Link Spam policies—no shortcuts, no tricks.
- Measurement, Experimentation & Continuous Improvement – SEO isn’t static; we treat it more like a lab. We run multivariate A/B tests on key pages, dig into cohort analyses, and experiment with conversion tweaks. The goal? To understand what really moves the needle. Our monthly reports don’t just show numbers—they explain why things happened and what we’ll try next. It’s all about making decisions based on data, not gut feeling.
EcoSEO Case Studies
Why work with EcoSEO? Six reasons, actually
Search-engine-optimisation is a strategic capability that provides far more value than a new line on a Google results page. Our goal at EcoSEO is to deliver sustainable growth, growth that’s measurable, localised and enduring. We know we’re doing a good job when that statement can still be made—well after algorithms have been rewritten and the industry has moved on.
- Prioritised roadmap for accelerated time-to-value – Results start as an idea, become possible when implemented. Both are important.We structure our service offerings and reporting around deliverables you can use to balance technical and content optimisations that pay off in a month or two with long-term strategic work that continues to grow for months and years to come. Think of it like weight-loss; short term wins that are worth celebrating, all underpinned by a longer journey to a healthier baseline.
- Intent-mapped traffic for higher conversions – Good SEO attracts visitors that are looking for the specific products or services you provide, not everyone and their mother just googling a keyword or phrase.We call it intent-mapping and the conversion rates are often up to 40% better than other types of campaigns, including other SEO services. It’s not a vanity metric either. It can mean a direct increase in sales qualified leads or visitors moving the further up the funnel and into the conversion and booking process.
- Dashboard reporting that connects the dots – We dig deep and work hard, but the dashboard exists for a reason; to help you make sense of the numbers. We help by stripping out SEO-speak and focusing on actions, results and next steps. Better yet, using Google Looker Studio, our narrative reporting connects SEO activities to concrete business metrics you actually care about; the size of the pipeline, revenue (actual conversions and bookings, not just traffic volumes) and customer engagement (actions taken by existing accounts). Whether the short, easy-to-digest dashboard or the full breakdown of your SEO’s contribution to the business, you know exactly how EcoSEO delivers results, and for what.
- SEO performance that actually lasts – This is one that’s easy to forget when you look at a monthly reporting dashboard and focus on fluctuating metrics, but we build for longevity and resilience. Focusing on core improvements in site health, consistent (evergreen) content and linking approaches that pass Google’s quality thresholds, our aim is to minimise volatility and create less risk from major algorithm updates (or even manual interventions by the human quality police at Google Headquarters at Mountain View). In short, the roller-coaster effect that many other SEO campaigns exhibit with dips and spikes in search engine traffic and rankings. A little bit of white-knuckle SEO growth is exciting but our goal is less traffic whiplash and more sustainable upward progress.
- Cross-channel growth experiments – SEO is the online world’s version of looking under the hood for specific problems. That focus means that, by design, we are necessarily zeroing-in on a set of signals and leaving other potential growth channels unexplored. So we don’t. We work across teams and data sets to unlock growth campaigns that live beyond SEO, but start with SEO. It can be everything from data-informed content for PR initiatives and “micro-content” for social platforms to launching (productised) campaigns on third party marketplaces. All these are real, non-vanity experiments we have run, and are all approaches to help search for audiences you may not realise are actively looking for you.
- A local perspective with global ambition – Cape Town isn’t one city, it’s a collection of neighbourhoods and suburbs with very specific profiles, customer bases and local search opportunities.We know City Bowl isn’t the same as the Northern Suburbs and speak just as comfortably about the dynamics of local search in Gqeberha or Johannesburg. Whether your business model is local or global in scope, we have the local knowledge (and local staff) and capability to extend search beyond one city.
FAQs About Our EcoSEO SEO Agency in Cape Town
Why choose EcoSEO as an SEO agency in Cape Town?
We’ve spent enough time in the Cape Town SEO industry to know that local SEO experience really does matter. What makes a good search query here? How can a business succeed online in the Western Cape? What do local consumers really respond to? We use our local SEO experience to know how to tailor digital marketing solutions to what works best for South African businesses. We combine local knowledge and understanding with digital marketing strategy and execution, to create SEO campaigns that are proven to work with any size of South African business. The end goal? To help your brand be the one that people find organically online in Cape Town and, once you’re ready, the rest of South Africa.
What are EcoSEO’s SEO services?
We aim to keep it simple, yet comprehensive. Our SEO services run the gamut — from keyword research (national and local) to on-page optimisation (improving meta tags, content and internal linking, optimisation etc.) and technical SEO (site speed, mobile, indexation — all the bits in the background that make a big difference). On top of that, there’s link building and content marketing, and tracking and reporting on performance. It’s SEO set up and executed to make sure you’re noticed and stay noticed in Google search.
Can I get SEO for my business to reach beyond Cape Town?
Of course. While we call Cape Town home, and have a lot of local clients who have expanded across South Africa, we love helping local brands gain visibility across the country. The challenge is building a national SEO strategy that still retains a local edge. Targeting the right, high value keywords, optimising and optimising your site and page for your new market, creating and promoting content that really shows your brand as a strong, authoritative voice in your industry and field. From Johannesburg to Durban and beyond, we work with clients to craft a plan that makes sense and that will help them grow and compete on a national level.
How much do SEO services cost?
There’s no hard and fast rule on pricing as every business has different goals, faces different challenges, and operates within a unique market. Instead, we like to customise plans and solutions so that you can be confident you’re getting a great value service rather than a one-size-fits-all SEO package. You can get an idea of our pricing by browsing our SEO packages or by contacting us directly for a custom quote. We will be happy to explain how an SEO campaign can work with your budget and your growth targets.
