EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Leeds finance & fintech is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
48,000 Leeds finance businesses. Most aren't found online.
Leeds's finance and fintech sector is fragmented. Big banks dominate brand searches, but local SMBs lose 60% of qualified leads to poor search visibility. Regulatory constraints mean you can't run aggressive PPC—organic SEO is your competitive edge. The market is undersaturated: fewer than 30% of Leeds finance SMBs have SEO-optimised websites, leaving massive opportunity for those who act first.
The 3 places Leeds finance & fintech brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 finance & fintech brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Client ranked page 2 for 'mortgage broker Leeds' and received mostly price-shopper inquiries. No differentiation; no reviews. Average lead cost via Google Ads: £85. Budget: £2,000/mo.
Repositioned website around 'fee-only mortgage advice' and 'whole-of-market mortgages for self-employed Leeds residents'—underserved angles with 220 monthly searches.

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Within 6 months, you own 40–60 high-intent keywords for your service area, rank in the top 3 for 'financial advice Leeds' searches, and generate 15–25 qualified leads monthly from organic search. Your cost-per-lead drops from £120 to £45–£65, and your content establishes you as the local finance expert.
Competitive & Intent Audit
We map what Leeds clients actually search for—'mortgage adviser near me', 'fee-only financial planner Leeds', 'crypto trading app UK'—and reverse-engineer your competitors' strengths. We identify 40–80 high-intent, low-competition keywords you should own within 90 days.
On-Site & Technical Foundation
We fix crawlability, site speed, mobile usability, and schema markup—the unglamorous foundation 80% of Leeds finance sites skip. We audit your current content for regulatory compliance + SEO alignment, then rebuild your information architecture to match buyer journeys.
Authority Content Strategy
We create 4–6 pillar guides per quarter: deep, expert content that positions you as the Leeds finance authority. Think 'Complete Guide to Mortgages in Leeds 2026' or 'How Fintech Disrupts Traditional Banking'—content that ranks, educates, and builds trust within regulated constraints.
Local & Link Authority Build
We secure high-authority backlinks from Leeds business directories, finance publications, and local partnerships. We optimise your Google Business Profile, gather verified reviews, and ensure local pack visibility for 'financial services Leeds' and hyper-local intent.
Measure, Refine & Scale
Monthly: we track rankings, traffic, leads, and cost-per-lead. We A/B test content angles, refine keyword targeting, and double down on what works. Quarterly reviews adjust strategy based on algorithm updates and market shifts.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“The weekly Loom is something no one else offered. I finally understand what's happening with our SEO — and I can explain it to my board. That matters more than I expected.”

“I've run three agencies through their paces. This is the first one that attributes everything back to revenue. Rankings are vanity. Pipeline is the point.”

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results from SEO?
First results (page 2–3 rankings, 15–20% traffic lift): 6–8 weeks. Significant results (top 10 rankings, 50%+ traffic lift, measurable leads): 3–4 months. Full ROI typically emerges at month 5–6. Finance and fintech sectors are moderately competitive; patience compounds your advantage.
Will SEO work if we've tried other agencies before?
Yes—and often better than before. Most failed SEO attempts miss buyer intent, skip technical foundations, or use generic tactics. We start with a competitive audit to find what was missed, then rebuild with a Leeds-specific, finance-focused strategy. You're not starting from zero; you're starting from insight.
How does SEO fit with our PPC budget?
They're complementary. PPC funds urgency; SEO funds trust and scale. Most finance businesses we work with reduce PPC spend 20–30% as organic leads grow, reinvesting savings into content and local initiatives. Your budget becomes more efficient, not bigger.
What about compliance? Can we rank without breaking FCA rules?
Absolutely. We've built a compliance-safe content framework for regulated finance. No misleading claims, no unsubstantiated 'guarantees'—just transparent, educational content that ranks. 98% of our content passes first-review compliance audits.
Do you work with small teams, or just large finance firms?
We specialise in SMBs: £200k–£5m revenue, 1–15 staff. These are the businesses most underserved by SEO—too small for large agencies, too sophisticated for cheap tactics. Our playbook scales for bootstrap teams and well-staffed firms alike.
