SEO agency Melbourne

Get found in Google and named in AI answers.

Search engines are the consumer go-to for research, comparison and buying, and SEO is how you show up there without paying for every click. As an SEO agency Melbourne businesses trust, we look after the whole job: a site Google can crawl, pages that answer what buyers are really asking, and the links and mentions that make Google (and now its AI Overviews) trust you. When it comes to organic search, that is all we eat, sleep and dream about!

How we do SEO better

Good SEO comes down to three things:

Deeply understanding your buyers and what they type, and ask, before they choose you
Building a sustainable search strategy around the pages that bring in enquiries and sales
Applying the relentless pursuit of excellence to every fix, page and link, and logging what each one did

Foresight is built to drive sustainable growth from search.

We offer SEO in four key areas. Scroll down or click one of the links below to learn more about each:

Technical SEO

Before anything else works, Google has to be able to reach, read and trust your pages. We check how your site is crawled and indexed, page speed, broken links and redirects, duplicate pages, structured data, the mobile experience, and whether AI crawlers can get in.

Website migrations are where we've done some of our biggest work. A rebuild or replatform can wipe out years of search traffic if redirects and tracking aren't handled with care, so we plan them page by page, from 1,000-page builders' sites to 50,000-page ecommerce stores.

Google Search

Google handles more than 5 trillion searches a year and about 88% of Australian searches, so this is where most of the work goes.

Bing

About 9% of Australian searches, and more on desktop. Often missed, but Bing still packs a punch.

Migrations

Redirect maps, pre-launch crawls and post-launch checks, so a new site keeps the traffic the old one earned.

Content and keyword strategy

We find out what your buyers search for and what they ask AI tools, then sort it by intent: who's still learning, who's comparing, and who's ready to buy. That decides which pages you need and in what order.

We improve the pages you already have before writing new ones. AI helps us research and draft; a person edits every page, checks every fact and makes sure it sounds like you.

Keyword and intent research

Search data, AI prompts and your sales calls, sorted into the pages worth building first.

Page optimisation

Titles, headings, copy and internal links tuned for the searches each page should win.

Ecommerce SEO

Category and product pages built to rank, on Shopify and the bigger platforms.

Links and authority

Google still counts links and mentions from respected sites as a sign you can be trusted, and AI tools lean on the same signals. We look at which sites link to your competitors and not to you, and go after the ones worth having: industry associations, directories that matter in your field, local business networks and publications.

We also reclaim links you've already earned. When pages move or disappear, the links pointing at them go to waste, so we find them and point them back at a live page.

Link building

Relevant links from real sites in your industry and your city.

Link reclamation

Old links pointing at dead pages, found and redirected so their value counts again.

Reporting that makes sense

We track the pages that matter in Search Console and Google Analytics 4: clicks, impressions, position, and the enquiries and sales they lead to. Every change is logged with the date, so we can see what it did.

What many people don't realise is that SEO and ads feed each other. Google counts the landing page experience as part of ad quality, and higher quality ads typically cost less per click. The search terms that convert in ads also tell us which content to write first. So what you do organically shapes your paid performance and revenue, and the other way around.

Search Console and GA4

Clicks, positions and conversions for the pages that make you money.

Google Ads

Paid search runs alongside SEO while it builds, and shares what converts.

SEO services that grow traffic and leads

Every SEO service we offer is aimed at the same thing: more of the right people finding your website, and more of them getting in touch or buying. Here's what's included when you work with our Melbourne SEO team:

SEO audit

A full check of your site's technical health, content and links, with every issue ranked by what it's worth to fix.

Keyword strategy

The searches your best customers use, mapped to the pages that should win them.

Content that ranks

New and improved pages written around real buyer questions, edited by a person and checked for facts.

Digital PR and links

Mentions and links from Australian publications, associations and directories in your field.

Local SEO

Your Google Business Profile, reviews and location pages, for businesses with customers nearby.

Monthly reporting

Traffic, rankings and the enquiries and sales they bring, in plain English.

An SEO agency Melbourne businesses rely on

We're a Melbourne SEO agency with technical SEO, content, digital PR and analytics under one roof. That matters because SEO is rarely held back by one thing. A page can be well written and still not rank because Google can't crawl it, or rank well and bring no enquiries because the tracking is broken.

Our clients range from local service businesses to national brands. We've led SEO for Goodman Fielder, Momentum Energy and Wine Selectors, and large website migrations for the Australian Museum and Under Armour. The method is the same for every size of business: fix what's stopping Google, build the pages your buyers need, earn the links that show you're worth trusting, and report on what each change did.

How to choose the best SEO agency in Melbourne

The best SEO agency for you is the one that can explain exactly what it will do and how you'll know it's working. Before you sign with anyone, ask:

What will you fix first, and why?
Who will actually do the work, and will I talk to them?
How will you report on enquiries and sales as well as rankings?
Which other digital channels will you look at, and how will they work with SEO?
Can you show me results for businesses like mine?

Be wary of anyone promising page one by a set date. Good SEO services build steadily, and the gains last.

SEO and the rest of your digital marketing

SEO works best alongside your other digital channels. Google Ads can bring in enquiries while organic rankings build, and the search terms that convert in ads show us which pages to write first. If you run both with us, one team sees the whole picture.

What else is worth asking? Glad you asked!

How long does SEO take to work?

Longer than ads, and the results last longer too. Google's own advice on hiring an SEO puts it at four months to a year to make improvements and start seeing the benefit. Technical fixes can show sooner; new content and links take longer. We report monthly so you can see it building.

How much does SEO cost in Melbourne?

Our SEO starts at $5,000 a month. It depends on the size of your site, how competitive your market is and how much technical and content work is needed. We give you a fixed monthly quote once we've looked at your site and run a free check.

Can you guarantee page one on Google?

No one can, and Google says so itself: if an SEO guarantees you first place, find someone else. What we promise is clear priorities, careful work and honest reporting on what each change did.

Do you work with businesses outside Melbourne?

Yes. We're based in Melbourne and work with businesses right around Australia, and we've led SEO migrations for brands in the US, including Under Armour and YETI.

Do you do local SEO too?

Yes. If customers find you on Google Maps or search for a service near them, local SEO is its own job: your Google Business Profile, reviews and location pages. Our local SEO page explains how we do it.

What's the difference between SEO and AI SEO?

The foundations are the same. AI SEO is how we describe SEO done for the way search works now, with Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode in the mix, and with AI tools helping us do the work faster. Our AI SEO page covers it in detail.
