The short answer

BrisTechTonic is a Bristol SEO agency offering seo that gets UK businesses found on Google, the local map pack and the AI assistants they now ask, like ChatGPT and Perplexity. SEO is about making sure Google can read your site, trust it, and then giving it pages worth showing near the top. We run it as one joined-up system: fixing the technical foundation, writing content that answers what people are really searching for, and earning the reputation that keeps you there. The person who does your work owns your account, and reports it the same way every month.

What we do

How do we do SEO? Six things, in this order.

01

Check the whole site

Two weeks looking at exactly how Google reads your site, what it can and cannot see, and how well known you are online. No guessing, so the plan is built on what is really happening.

02

Fix the foundation

Making sure your pages actually show up on Google, load quickly, and link together sensibly. The unglamorous work that lets everything after it succeed.

03

Map what people search for

What people search for, what those searches are worth to you, and what has to happen for you to win them. The map the rest of the work follows.

04

Build the pages

Pages written to genuinely answer your buyers' questions and to make clear who you are and what you do, not padded out to hit a word count.

05

Earn the authority

Links and mentions from websites that actually cover your industry, so your position on Google holds steady.

06

Re-run against reality

Every month we check the plan against the real results. What works gets more attention; what does not gets dropped.

What is live, and what is not
We label every discipline: live, emerging, or partner-delivered. The status on this page is the honest one. We will tell you exactly what we can measure and deliver for you before you buy it, and we will not claim guaranteed placement in an AI answer, because nobody can deliver that.
The maths of search
Almost nobody scrolls past the top of the results.

These are industry figures, not our own results, and we do not invent numbers. They show why the first result is worth a multiple of the tenth, and why a site that cannot be found simply is not in the running. No ranking is ever guaranteed.

Proof

SEO, with the numbers.

What it includes

What does SEO cover, under one retainer?

These are capabilities within SEO, not add-ons with separate fees. Each has its own page; what your account needs is scoped before you buy.

SEO by platform

SEO for the platform you run.

Shopify, WordPress, Wix, Webflow, Squarespace or Magento, the same senior team, tuned to your CMS’s real limits and where it can actually rank.

Shopify SEO

Your Shopify store ranks instead of being quietly held back by fixed web addresses, duplicate pages from product options, and too many apps slowing it down. We fix the things actually costing you, then build the content that earns the traffic.

Read more →
WooCommerce SEO

You keep everything that makes WooCommerce flexible, and lose the baggage that usually comes with it: too many add-ons slowing the site down, a database working too hard, and lots of near-identical pages created by your filters and product options. You get a fast shop that is built to show up on Google, on a setup you control.

Read more →
BigCommerce SEO

You build on the genuinely good SEO settings BigCommerce gives you and fix where the real gains are: the near-identical pages your filters create, the limits of BigCommerce's design system, and scripts that slow the site down. You get a shop performing to its full potential, not just its out-of-the-box settings.

Read more →
Magento SEO

Your big Magento or Adobe Commerce store shows up in search instead of being buried. We fix the built-in problems that hold large stores back: the filters that create endless near-identical pages, thin and duplicate pages, and slow loading, so your rankings keep building.

Read more →
WordPress SEO

First come the technical basics most WordPress sites are quietly getting wrong, then the growth built on top. We fix the pile-up of plugins, heavy themes and cheap hosting that make a site slow and hard for Google to read, and let it rank.

Read more →
Wix SEO

Your Wix site ranks as high as Wix allows, with all its built-in SEO settings used properly. We are honest about the limits too: the way Wix can hide pages from Google, and what your template will and won't let us do, so you know what actually matters for you.

Read more →
Squarespace SEO

The basics get done genuinely right within Squarespace, with a straight account of where it reaches its limit. We use its settings hard and stay honest about the web addresses you can't change, how little say you get over what Google looks at, and pages that can run slow.

Read more →
Webflow SEO

You keep Webflow's speed and tidy build, and fix what actually holds it back: headings picked for looks, missing extra details in search, and pages that don't say much. You get a fast site that finally earns the rankings it deserves.

Read more →
Framer SEO

You keep Framer's speed and tidy pages and fix what design-led sites often skip: proper headings, real content, and the extra details Google shows in search. You get a fast site with enough substance to actually rank.

Go deeper

SEO specialisms.

SEO consultant

An experienced pair of eyes tells you exactly what is wrong, what to do, and in what order. Sometimes you do not need an agency to take the work away, you need expert judgement you can trust.

Read more →
SEO for recruitment agencies

You win candidates and employers from the same site, instead of building for one and losing the other. We build the search visibility and two-sided content that turn both audiences into the right enquiries.

Read more →
SEO for construction

We help you get found by the people commissioning building work in your area, and look capable enough to win it. We build the local visibility and credibility that turn a search into a serious enquiry.

Read more →
White-label SEO

You offer clients the SEO you cannot resource, delivered under your brand, without building the department. We run the audits, technical work, content and reporting behind the scenes, badged as yours. Here is how it works.

Read more →
Link building

You earn genuine links from real websites that keep working, without the tricks that put your business at risk. We win relevant links through digital PR (getting your business featured in the press) and honest outreach. It is slower than buying them, and it is the version that lasts.

Read more →
AI SEO

You show up both in normal Google results and in the answers AI tools give, so customers find you whether they scroll the search results or just ask an assistant. We build the groundwork that gets you ranking on Google and quoted by AI.

Read more →
Programmatic SEO

You reach searches nobody has time to write a page for one by one, in bulk, without the flimsy pages that Google buries or penalises. We build big sets of pages from your data with a real quality bar on every single one.

Read more →
Google Business Profile optimisation

You break into the little map of three local businesses that sits at the top of Google for local searches, and stay there. We do the unglamorous ongoing work, the categories, reviews, posts and keeping your details consistent, and stay honest about what nobody controls.

Read more →
B2B SEO

You point the whole programme at real sales leads, not visitor numbers, winning the small number of valuable searches that lead to revenue. We build for the searches your buyers actually use through months of quiet research.

Read more →
Content marketing

This is an ongoing programme built for real enquiries, not post counts: fewer, better articles tied to what people actually search, written by experienced people who know your field, made to earn rankings and get quoted by AI.

Choosing an SEO agency in the UK

An honest buyer's guide, not a pitch, so you can pick the SEO agency that fits your market, your site and how you work. It covers what separates good SEO from bad, and where we fit and where we do not.

PPC vs SEO

What follows is a genuinely balanced comparison, not a sales pitch dressed up as advice, so you can decide where to put your money. It covers what paid ads and free Google listings each do well, what they cost, how long they take, and how to choose.

SEO for law firms

You earn the Google ranking and the AI mention with content credible enough to stand up to real scrutiny. We build the pages that win clients doing their research before they choose a solicitor, inside the rules and without overclaiming.

Read more →
SEO for financial services

You earn the ranking, and the mention in AI answers, in a market that weighs credibility harder than almost any other. We build well-backed content that wins buyers researching for weeks, inside the FCA rules, without a claim you cannot stand behind.

Read more →
SEO for healthcare

You earn the ranking, and the mention in AI answers, with content patients trust while they research a symptom, a treatment or a provider. We build clear, trustworthy pages, inside the advertising and clinical rules, without overclaiming.

Read more →
SEO for SaaS

You turn months of people teaching themselves into trials and demos, not visits that go nowhere. We build the product-focused content that ranks, gets quoted by AI assistants, and feeds your sales pipeline instead of your bounce rate.

Read more →
SEO for manufacturers

You become the supplier engineers and buyers find while they research parts, measurements and what you can make. We make your products, specifications and processes show up in Google and in the AI assistants they now ask first.

Is it for you

Is SEO worth doing for you?

Do this if

You have real demand you are not capturing, and a site that can be improved.Your customers take time to decide, and being found early in their research changes who wins.You want the technical problems fixed properly, not covered up with more blog posts.

Do not bother if

You need leads next week. SEO builds over time; paid ads are the faster route.You cannot change the website, or the system it is built on is completely locked down.Nobody is really searching for what you sell yet.

How we measure it

How do we measure SEO? The same numbers, the same way, every month.

Fixed at the start of the engagement so the reporting cannot be reshaped later to flatter the result. Whether they moved or not, they are in the report.

Measure 01

Clicks from people who did not search your name

Visitors who found you without already knowing your name. The number that shows the work is reaching new buyers.

Measure 02

Enquiries from search

Visits from Google that turned into real enquiries, tracked through to money rather than a ranking that just looks good.

Measure 03

Pages Google can find and show

How many of your important pages Google can read, has added to its results, and displays as intended.

Measure 04

Referring domains earned

New, relevant websites linking to you, so your position on Google has something solid underneath it.

A free look first

We review what your current agency has done, tell you straight what is worth keeping and where the quick wins are. No obligation to move.

02

You keep what's yours

Your site, content, Google Business Profile and analytics stay in your name. We work with what you already have; nothing is held hostage.

03

A clean handover

We map the work across, set a plain-English baseline in the first few weeks, and carry on from there. No starting from zero, no quiet ranking gap.

Book a free discovery call

Three-month minimum, then rolling monthly on 30 days’ notice. No long lock-in, no exit fees.

Discipline questions

What do clients ask us about SEO?

How long until it works?

The technical fixes show inside weeks. The compounding organic growth is a two to three quarter story, and we say so on the first call rather than after you have signed.

Do you guarantee rankings?

No. Nobody honestly can. We agree a set of numbers to track at the start, and report them whether they went up or not.

Who writes the content?

The experienced person on your account plans and edits it. You are not passed off to a junior team.

Will you work with my developers?

Yes. We hand the fixes over as a clear, prioritised list, and we can make the changes ourselves where you would rather we did.

What is technical SEO?

Technical SEO is the behind-the-scenes work of making sure Google can properly read your site, add your pages to its results, and load them quickly. It is where most SEO gets stuck, and we fix it before writing a word of content.

How long does SEO take to work?

The technical fixes show inside weeks. The compounding organic growth is a two to three quarter story, and we say so on the first call rather than after you have signed.

Is SEO worth it for a business like mine?

If people are searching for what you offer and buyers take time to decide, yes: being found early in their research changes who wins. If nobody is searching yet, we will tell you rather than take the retainer.

“The guys at BrisTechTonic are great - friendly and always helpful. I would highly recommend!”

Allanah Fenwick

“I've had the pleasure of working with Chris on several SEO projects for my websites in the health field. He was definitely been able to demystify things so that I felt able to make decisions with him and feel confident they were the right ones. For a non-techie, that is worth gold! I look forward to working with Chris again and warmly recommend him to anyone who - like me - is unsure about all things SEO.”

Biliana Avramova

“I was recommended by my branding partner to use Chris and his team last year. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are very responsive , easy to communicate with and great at translating techy stuff when needed. They are now an essential part of my business model”
