Organic SEO services for a local business
Just Right Autos ranks as the best in Oxfordshire for multiple key phrases, and they also achieve impressive rankings on a nationwide level.
Martin no longer engages in any other advertising and is currently expanding his business.
How cool is that?
Kaydee Web has performed regular SEO on a reasonably small scale over an extended period, and it’s wonderful to see the website gaining recognition.
We really enjoy doing SEO for a business like this because Martin prioritises customer satisfaction and responds positively to my creative requests.
SEO is effective for open and honest businesses.
The success of Martin's website has greatly benefited from the outstanding professional photographs taken by Jenny Stewart, a brand photographer based in Gloucester and Bristol. We recommended that Martin hire Jenny because we admire her photography style.
Each time we write a blog post, we have a selection of unique photos to choose from, which helps visitors become visually familiar with the business.
Hiring professional photographers is definitely worth it.

Local SEO services: the process
To create an SEO-friendly website for Just Right Autos, Kaydee Web built a website with the correct URLs,
well-named images with ALT tags, and meta-data on every page as standard.
Just Right Autos started one of our SEO packages and kept that rolling over the months. We now have a
well-engineered website and continuously create web pages and blog posts targeting key phrases.
Kaydee Web writes content about the local area, using words like Witney and Oxfordshire to help search
engines recognise the workshop's geographical location.
One of the pages we created is on driver information in the Witney area - a page geared around the
community shows that Just Right Autos looks after their local customers by providing regional
knowledge.
Off-page SEO, local backlinks and reviews
A significant part of Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) involves off-page SEO strategies where we focus on
elements outside of the website, such as social media and online directories.
It is crucial to maintain consistency in any reference to a business, which is known as NAP consistency.
NAP refers to Name, Address, and Phone, but it goes beyond just those three details.
Kaydee Web ensures that the business bios are up-to-date and mention the relevant keyphrases, links to
the website are correct, opening times are consistent, and the logo is used as necessary across all
relevant platforms on the internet.
We also ensure that all details on any directories are up-to-date, as local directories help build
backlinks and brand awareness.
Over the years, we have reminded Just Right Autos to request Google reviews from their customers and
provided them with suggestions on the specific phrases that their clients can use while leaving reviews.
The choice of words used in the reviews helps Google provide the most useful information for future
customers, which in turn helps the business rank higher in Google Maps.
Building the WordPress website
Just Right Autos is built in WordPress, a content management system (CMS) that allows customers to manage
their website and blog easily. The layout is clean, using simple colours and fonts. We keep the web
design simple to ensure visitors can find what they are looking for and search engines will approve.
The mobile version of the website has a collapsed menu, often known as the burger menu, and it is
traditional at Kaydee Web to label this MENU so people can instantly see where to go.
A simple design like this has longevity - over the years, the website has grown, but as we’ve managed it
every month, we’ve kept it up to date and have frequently reorganised the navigation system to ensure
ease of use.
Professional photos for local SEO
The success of Martin's website has been helped by the professional photographs taken by Jenny Stewart
Brand Photographer, who operates in and around Gloucester and Bristol. We suggested Martin hire Jenny as we love the style of her photography.
Jenny’s pictures clearly show how she made Martin feel comfortable in front of the camera despite him
being a private person. Considering most people don't like to have their photo taken, this is an
essential skill.
Google likes to see that businesses make an effort to attract visitors, and having unique photos on the
website is a great way to rank better than websites that use unoriginal stock photos. Whenever we
write a blog post, we have a pool of unique photos to use as the
Open Graph image.
Professional images capture the personality of the founders and the team in the workshop, which we love
seeing on a website because it helps visitors trust the business.
Jenny's photographs give visitors a sneak peek behind the scenes within the workshop, making them feel
more comfortable leaving their vehicle with Just Right Autos.
The photo above is one of our favourites - Martin looks relaxed, and his dogs are in the shot. It speaks
volumes about the family business that Martin and Adele have built. Jenny perfectly captured the
business logo and workshop in the background.
