Working with William has been a pleasure, he's a great person to work with, technically highly competent but also full of ideas.
As a Head of Marketing, I've worked with a number of external agencies supporting us with Google Ads, and SearchMaven stands out for its strategic approach and consistent performance.
Excellent service from start to finish. Understood what we needed and made it happen.
The right marketing mix.Nothing padded out.
We start with the commercial problem, then choose the work that actually supports it. Sometimes that is a new website. Sometimes it is SEO, paid ads or a landing page. Often it is fixing the tracking so you can see what is really producing enquiries.
Show me what to fix firstYour website and campaigns should share the same story.
A campaign can only work as well as the page it sends people to. We build websites and landing pages with the message, offer, proof and tracking lined up before a single pound is spent on traffic.

“SearchMaven did a fantastic job designing the new website for IST Digital Marketing. From the start he was easy to communicate with, understood the brief quickly and brought some really strong ideas to the table. The finished design looks great and he delivered everything on time without any fuss. If you're looking for a web designer who combines a genuine creative eye with a straightforward, professional approach, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.”

Questions we get asked a lot
We build and market websites for local businesses. That can include website design, hosting, maintenance, SEO, Google Ads, Meta advertising, landing pages, conversion tracking and reporting. The point is not to sell every channel at once. It is to build the right mix for the business and make the work measurable.
Yes. Website design and build is now a core SearchMaven service. We can design, build, host and maintain the site, then support it with SEO, content and paid campaigns where that makes commercial sense.
No. Some businesses need a better website first. Some need SEO foundations. Some need paid ads because demand already exists and speed matters. We will tell you what we think should come first, what can wait and what is not worth paying for.
Yes. We can review your current website, SEO, Google Ads account, landing pages and tracking. You will get a plain-English view of what is working, what is weak and what we would prioritise. No jargon smokescreen and no obligation to hire us afterwards.
Yes. Website plans start from £50 per month ex VAT, with no setup fee, on a 12-month term that covers the build, then roll month to month. Marketing is scoped separately, from £150 per month, and runs month to month with 30 days notice.
Gloucestershire and the patch around it is our home turf, and that local knowledge gives us a real edge. Most of our clients are nearby. That said, we do take on the odd business elsewhere in the UK when the fit is right.
