Search Engine Optimisations for Salons

SEO for Colour Specialists

SEO for Colour Specialists helps your salon or studio show up when people search for specific colour services, not just “hair salon”. It focuses on high-intent local keywords like balayage, highlights, toner, colour correction and colour specialist, then turns that visibility into more enquiries and bookings through stronger service pages, clearer trust signals and clean technical SEO.

More information

What the service covers

This service is built to help colour specialists rank for niche, buyer-intent searches and convert that traffic into bookings. It typically includes:

  • Niche keyword research for colour services (balayage, lived-in colour, foils, toner, colour correction and more)
  • Service page optimisation so each colour service has a clear, search-friendly landing page
  • Local SEO improvements to strengthen relevance for your target area
  • On-page copy improvements focused on outcomes, process, suitability and aftercare
  • Trust content to reduce doubt (examples of results, what to expect, who it’s for, reassurance on damage, maintenance and pricing structure)
  • FAQ content designed to match real search queries and reduce repetitive enquiries
  • Structured data (schema) to help search engines understand your services and FAQs
  • Technical checks that affect rankings and conversions (indexing, speed basics, internal linking)

Who this is for

This is a strong fit if you specialise in colour and want to attract clients searching for that exact result, rather than competing only on generic salon terms. It’s especially useful if you:

  • Offer premium colour work and want fewer price shoppers
  • Rely on Instagram for discovery but want consistent inbound enquiries from Google
  • Have one main “Colour” page and struggle to rank for specific services
  • Get traffic but it does not translate into consultations or bookings

How delivery works

Work is delivered in clear phases, so you always know what’s being done and why. Typical steps include:

  • Quick discovery of your services, margins and priority bookings
  • Keyword and competitor research focused on local colour intent
  • A page plan that maps keywords to the right service pages (and avoids cannibalising rankings)
  • On-site improvements: page structure, headings, copy, FAQs, internal links and metadata
  • Technical and schema implementation to support visibility and rich results
  • Launch checks and baseline measurement so progress is trackable

What happens after the initial work

After the core improvements are in place, the focus shifts to compounding results. Depending on what you need, this can include:

  • Monitoring rankings, impressions and enquiries
  • Iterating pages that are close to page one
  • Building out additional service pages as your colour menu evolves
  • Seasonal content targeting (for example, “summer blonding” style searches) without diluting your core service pages
  • Keeping FAQs and trust content aligned with what clients ask before booking

    We went from 10 pages in our old site to 113 in Frively. From ranking for our own name locally to what we do nationally. We have seen an increase in bookings, enquiries and new clients. Excellent service and value. Thank you.

    I have been struggling with maintaining my own website for ages with pretty limited results. The team at Frively took over recently and I am amazed at how quickly we are starting to rank for so much more than our own name! We were on page 6 and are now on page 1! Really good and quick progress. The team are excellent, did everything for me and update it constantly.

    I thought our last site was good, but now I realise it was a smart looking directory listing. Since we moved to Frively our site delivers new business every day and we dominate searches locally. If we want a change, they just do it and often recommend changes that always make the results even better. Outstanding service and could recommend more highly.

    If you had have told me the impact a Frively Site would have on my business I would not have believed you! We have gone from having no online presence to dominating our local area for dozens of search terms and get new clients and enquiries every day. Outstanding service, technically brilliant and amazing value. Thank you Frively.

    Rebekah Todd (Todd Hairdressing)

    Our website is fast, looks great and we get more new business than ever. Our Google and AI keywords are driving more bookings and enquiries. The team at Frively are super responsive. Any changes or updates are normally dealt with very promptly and I love that there are no unexpected bills. We also get really good advise. Excellent service thank you.

    Belle Fontaine (The Dolls House Boutique)

    When we got in touch with Frively we had no online presence. People searching for our business name might have found us but we certainly didn't rank for any valid keywords. We are based in Eastbourne which is a competitive town and lots of businesses are very established online. Within just a few months we don't just rank we dominate. The Frively team said this would happen but I couldn't believe till it came true. If you have a local business and want to be relevant online locally. Get in touch they are brilliant!

    Beverley Kipling (Directors Cut)

    The Frively team are brilliant! My business is stronger that it has been in all of its 25 years. New clients at an all time high. More online enquiries. In a very short time we went from being nowhere on Google to getting new business every day.

    Our website dominates all local searches for our business in our area. We have a New Client Banner that gives us a content flow of new clients and get over double the number of new cluents we have ever had. An outstanding value service!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to see results from SEO for colour services?
SEO is incremental, so movement often happens in stages rather than overnight. Many salons see early improvements from on-page fixes first, with stronger ranking gains building over the following months.
Do I need a new website for this service?
Not always. If your current site is structurally limiting SEO or conversions, a rebuild can be the fastest route to better performance; otherwise, targeted on-site improvements may be enough.
Can you focus on specific treatments like balayage or colour correction?
Yes. The work is centred on service-level searches, so each priority colour service can be targeted with its own optimised page and supporting FAQs.
What do you need from me to get started?
Usually your service list, target locations, and a sense of which bookings are most valuable to you. If you have photos, pricing structure, and common client questions, that helps speed up strong page content.
Is this a one-off SEO job or ongoing?
The core build and optimisation can be delivered as a defined project. Ongoing support is optional, but it helps maintain momentum, expand coverage to more services, and keep improving conversions as data comes in.
