The Cardiff market

Why Cardiff businesses need specialist SEO The UK’s leading SEO company explains.

Cardiff is the Welsh capital and the busiest business centre in Wales, with big swings in footfall on event days at the Principality Stadium. SEO in Cardiff works best when you rank in your own neighbourhood, keep your Google profile sharp for visitors, and consider Welsh-language pages if your customers use them.

Cardiff punches above its weight. It’s the capital of Wales, home to the Senedd and a growing financial and media sector, and on big match days the Principality Stadium brings more than 70,000 people into the middle of the city. For local businesses, that means two kinds of customer: the regulars who live in Canton, Roath or Whitchurch, and the visitors who arrive for a game, a gig or a weekend in the Bay.

Both search on their phones. Regulars search by area: “dentist Llandaff”, “plumber Roath”. Visitors search for what’s close: “pubs near the stadium”, “restaurants Cardiff Bay”. We go after both, with a well-kept Google Business Profile, reviews from real customers and a page for every part of Cardiff you cover.

Cardiff is also bilingual. If a good share of your customers search in Welsh, Welsh pages written by a fluent writer can help you stand out, because fewer competitors bother. We’ll only recommend it if it’s worth it for you.

We work across Cardiff and South Wales, including Newport, Penarth and Barry. See how our local SEO service works, or look at the All-in-One plan if you need a new website as well.

FAQ

SEO in Cardiff: frequently asked questions

  1. How much does SEO in Cardiff cost?

    Local SEO starts at £500 a month, and National SEO at £900 a month. If you need a website too, All-in-One covers the site, local SEO, email and hosting for £180 a month.

  2. Should my Cardiff business have Welsh-language pages?

    It depends on your customers. If a good share of them use Welsh, or you work with public bodies that expect it, Welsh pages written by a fluent writer help you show up for Welsh searches and build trust. We'll tell you honestly whether it's worth it for your business.

  3. Can you help my business make the most of match days at the Principality Stadium?

    Yes. Pubs, restaurants, hotels and taxi firms near the stadium see huge spikes in searches before big games and concerts. Accurate hours, booking links, fresh photos and reviews on your Google profile help you catch that traffic.

  4. Do you cover Newport, Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan?

    Yes. Each town is a separate search, so we give the places you serve their own pages and build reviews from customers there.

  5. How long does SEO take for a Cardiff business?

    Most Cardiff businesses see more map views within two to three months. City-wide searches for professional services usually take four to six months to climb.

  6. What if I'm not happy with the results?

    Any plan can be cancelled with 30 days' notice. All-in-One customers can also ask for their money back within 90 days.
