If you require SEO consultancy, training, strategy or implementation without expensive, long term contracts then Whitworth SEO could be the perfect solution for your business.
Whether you need deep technical SEO auditing or just a second opinion on your approach, I have over a decade of experience for you to tap into at a price that delivers serious ROI.
With over 10 years of experience working with brands such as Halfords, Revolution Bars, Footasylum, Envirofone, Scenic and many more; your SEO will be in safe hands.
I am an experienced digital marketing expert with over a decade of experience of delivering excellence. Having worked at three agencies across the north-west, I have built a great reputation not only as an advanced SEO practitioner but also as a successful digital marketing speaker, trainer and consultant.
I also have a wealth of experience when it comes to devising and implementing digital marketing strategies, co-ordinating web builds and SEO migrations and also utilising paid search, CRO campaigns, and social media in order to deliver outstanding ROI.
Having completed work experience and internships at IPC Media and Sky Sports as a youngster and completing a degree in Journalism with a view to becoming a sports reporter, I quickly fell into SEO and content marketing after building my own websites. This journey has seen me develop these creative disciplines and fuse them with my technical prowess, becoming a versatile and rounded digital marketing expert in the process.
Despite considering myself to be an experienced and versatile SEO all-rounder, my particular areas of expertise are perfect migrations and effective cross-department liaison. This collaboration has been a huge aspect of my career to date, encouraging and facilitating the harmonious relationship between tech SEO, CRO/UX, content marketing and web development.

Whitworth SEO was hired by an energy company to handle their SEO initiatives. They performed competitive and keyword analyses and technical SEO audit and developed an SEO plan with recommendations.
Whitworth SEO's work boosted the client's organic SEO ranking and business growth, thanks to their valuable SEO recommendations. They exhibited excellent communication and the ability to provide simple explanations to complex concepts. Their professionalism and level of expertise were highlights.
The client submitted this review online.
BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
I was the Digital Channel Manager for the largest B2B Gas distributor in the UK. I looked after all the websites and customer facing platforms.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Whitworth SEO, and what were your goals?
We re-designed our website and were unhappy with the previous agency we used for SEO. We were looking for a partner that could perform a thorough audit of the sites, make recommendations and implement them. We also wanted to partner with an agency that would take responsibility for the site's SEO health on an ongoing basis and that could explain to us what work was being done, why and how we could measure success.
SOLUTION
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
As Head of SEO, Charlie Whitworth provided us with a through and detailed plan on the work they were going to do on the site, the reasons why, where opportunities lay and how we could make the most of our existing infrastructure to support the SEO programme he designed. He worked closely with the content team to provide a holistic approach to SEO where off page and on page tactics worked in harmony to support each other.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and campaigns.
We started with a discovery phase where Charlie and his team looked at what the previous agency did, what our frustrations/concerns were and what we wanted to achieve. They did a thorough competitor analysis, keyword analysis and in-depth technical SEO audit. They then provided a document with their key findings, recommendations and the plan for tackling the most pressing issues first and the ongoing monthly plan and regular SEO Audits schedule.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Charlie was the main point of contact for us with regards to SEO but I think there was a team of 3 SEO specialists that worked for him. We also had a team of 2 content specialists.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Our Organic SEO ranking sky rocketed only a couple months after we implemented the technical SEO recommendations. We experienced steady growth MoM and YoY steadily throughout the years Charlie Withworth was looking after our SEO.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
We had face to face monthly meetings but also regular calls or emails as required. Charlie Whitworth was really good at explaining difficult or technical topics simply and clearly to everyone, regardless of their knowledge of SEO terminology and tactics. We also used Basecamp to keep on top of the project deliverables.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Their level of expertise and professionalism were second to none. The fact that they always went out of their way to ensure everyone in the organisation understood why they were doing something and how we'll measure success in advance was also a plus.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
I have not got anything to say here. I was always so impressed with their service.
