SEO for Beauty Salons
We get salons, clinics and studios found for the treatments people are searching for in their own town. Not vanity rankings: the searches that end in a booking.
What the work involves
Four things, done in this order, because each one depends on the last.
Local keyword research
The searches that happen in your town, rather than the ones a national tool suggests.
Google Business Profile
Categories, services, hours and photos aligned with what the website says.
Service page structure
A page worth ranking for each treatment you want to be found for.
Monthly reporting
What moved, what did not, and what we are doing about it next.
The searches that matter are smaller than you think
There is very little value in ranking for "hairdresser" nationally. There is a great deal in ranking for the treatment someone wants, in the town they are standing in, at the moment they decide to book.
That is a much narrower target. It is also winnable, even when your site is new and nobody has linked to it yet.
How we work
We start with what people in your area type. That produces a list of searches worth having, and it usually looks nothing like the list a salon owner expects.
The Vintage Avenue moved from page 5 to position 1 for 'hairdressers Biggleswade' within months.
Then we make sure you have a page worth ranking for each of them, that Google can find those pages, and that your Google Business Profile agrees with everything the site says about you.
Local search is mostly about consistency
Most salons lose local rankings to small contradictions. Opening hours that differ between the site and the profile. A treatment listed in one place and not the other. An address written three different ways. We fix those first, because they are cheap to fix and they hold everything else back.
What you get to see
Monthly reporting showing what moved, what did not, and what happens next. If a number goes the wrong way, the report says so plainly rather than burying it.
How this is priced
For salons whose site we build and host, this is part of the monthly fee rather than a separate bill. If your salon is on another platform, the way to get this is to move onto ours, where the SEO groundwork is part of the build. How pricing works.
