SEO services in Liverpool
Matthews Creative provides SEO for Liverpool businesses, focused on being found by people who are ready to call, book or buy. We are an SEO agency with our own developers, writers and designers under one roof, so we can fix technical problems, write content and improve pages ourselves. You get a dedicated project manager and reporting in plain English.
What's included
SEO, done properly.
Search is changing. People still use Google, but more of them now ask AI assistants such as ChatGPT for recommendations. We cover both. Alongside local SEO, technical fixes, content and links, we offer LLMEO, which helps your business be understood and recommended by AI tools. We never promise rankings, because nobody honestly can. We promise careful work, sensible priorities and straight answers.
Local SEO
Location pages, local signals and consistent business details, so you show up for searches in and around Liverpool.
Google Business Profile
Set-up and optimisation of categories, services, photos and posts, plus a simple routine for gathering and replying to reviews.
Technical SEO
Speed, crawling, indexing, structured data and site structure fixed by our developers, not just flagged in a report.
Content that answers questions
Service pages, guides and FAQs written by people and planned around what your customers actually search for.
Links and mentions
Earning relevant links and local citations from genuine sources. We never buy links or use spammy tactics.
LLMEO for AI assistants
Making your business easy for ChatGPT and other AI assistants to understand, trust and recommend.
Liverpool
Local SEO in a competitive Liverpool market
Liverpool is a busy place to compete in search. Hospitality businesses in the city centre and around Bold Street are up against many similar venues for the same handful of searches. Visitors heading to the waterfront or the Royal Albert Dock reach for their phones to find places to eat, stay and visit nearby. Strong local SEO, a well-kept Google Business Profile and genuine reviews help you appear in the map results when it matters.
B2B firms face a different challenge. Port and logistics businesses, professional services and organisations in the Knowledge Quarter are often found by buyers doing careful research. Here SEO is about clear service pages, useful content and a site that answers detailed questions. Those same qualities are what AI assistants look for when someone asks them to recommend a supplier, which is why our SEO Liverpool work includes LLMEO as standard.
Many businesses serve more than the city itself. If you cover Wirral, Sefton, Knowsley or St Helens, we plan location pages and local signals that reflect where you genuinely work, without thin copy-and-paste pages that search engines ignore. Whether you trade near Liverpool ONE, from a studio in the Baltic Triangle or from a unit outside the centre, the aim is the same: be visible where your customers are looking.

No outsourcing
Audits, fixes, content and links are all handled in-house by our own team. No white-label reports and no anonymous contractors.

SEO and LLMEO together
We optimise for traditional search and AI assistants at the same time, so you are not left behind as people change how they search.
We build, not just advise
Because we also build websites and create content, the changes an SEO audit recommends actually get made.

Questions
SEO Liverpool, answered.
How much does SEO cost?
It depends on how competitive your market is, the state of your current website, how many services or locations you cover and how much content is needed. Some businesses need a one-off fix, others need ongoing work. After a free consultation call we send a fixed quote for an agreed scope.
How long does SEO take to work?
It depends on your starting point and your competition. Technical fixes and Google Business Profile improvements can make a difference sooner, while content and links build up over months. We set honest expectations at the start and report progress regularly.
Do you offer SEO outside Liverpool?
Yes. We are based in Liverpool and work with businesses across the North West and the wider UK by video call and phone. Local SEO follows the same principles for any town or city you serve.
Can you guarantee first place for SEO Liverpool searches?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Search engines and AI assistants decide their own results, and they change often. What we can promise is careful, well-explained work on the things that genuinely influence visibility, done in-house and reported honestly.
What is LLMEO?
LLMEO means optimising so that large language models, the AI assistants such as ChatGPT that many people now use to find businesses, understand and recommend you. It builds on good SEO: clear facts about your business, well-structured pages, helpful content and consistent mentions across the web. We include it alongside traditional SEO.
Do I need a new website for better SEO?
Not always. Many sites can be improved with technical fixes and better content. If your current platform is holding you back, we will explain why and what a rebuild would involve, but we will not push one you do not need.
