An Edinburgh SEO company you can trust
Alba SEO Services is a local SEO company in Edinburgh offer search engine optimisation, social media, web design and PPC marketing. What makes Alba unique is the focus on building good customer relationships, treating our client’s websites as if they were our own and getting the best results based on our years of experience. Our results speak for themselves. Many of our clients are at the top of their desired search or on the first page for that search. It is a failure for us if we cannot get a website onto the first page of Google or Bing.
We are always learning and adapting our strategies since we know that the things that worked last year may not be applicable today. We want our clients to get the best results and for that we have to keep learning to adapt to best practices.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I'm a partner in a blinds business. We install wooden, vertical, and roller blinds in commercial and residential properties.
What challenge were you trying to address with Alba SEO Services?
We wanted more visibility in our county, which is small but fairly affluent. Our previous website was not very good, and certainly not SEO friendly.
What was the scope of their involvement?
They manage all our SEO campaigns. They did some keyword research, and all of our work so far is organic. We may visit PPC options in the future, but we're not completely sold on that yet. They're not directly connected with our web developer, but they work together closely.
What is the team composition?
They're a small business, and I work with a team of two.
How did you come to work with Alba SEO Services?
We heard about them through word of mouth.
How much have you invested with them?
We spend roughly £400 (approximately $515 USD) a month for a set number of hours.
What is the status of this engagement?
We have them on a monthly retainer and have used them since March or April 2018.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Shortly after we developed the new site, they helped us increase our web visibility for our local market. Now, we appear near the top of the page for local searches for blinds and services we provide.
How did Alba SEO Services perform from a project management standpoint?
They delivered what they promised, and they're always available by phone or email. We wanted to deal with a local person, and they fulfill that need for us.
What did you find most impressive about them?
There's nothing they could improve or do better. They met all our expectations.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They're honest and straightforward. They helped us manage our expectations, and they never made any false promises. SEO is a slow burn, and they helped us persevere and get the results we wanted in a realistic time frame.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Communication is key. This is a two-way process, so do your part to ensure your project's success. They need your feedback about your business, so stay involved and you'll see results.
