SEO London Reviews
About Rapid SEO London | Award-Winning SEO Agency Founded 2010 | Adam MacHardie & Lisa Greenhouse

We built this agency because we couldn’t find one we’d trust ourselves.

Rapid SEO London was co-founded in 2010 by Adam MacHardie and Lisa Greenhouse. The reason we started is the same reason many of our clients came to us: we’d been searching for a reliable SEO partner for our own business back in 2006, and found that most agencies either didn’t return calls, overpromised on results, or locked clients into lengthy contracts with very little to show for it.

So we did it ourselves. We built our own website from scratch, researched SEO properly, and within a few months we were ranking and turning a profit. We realised quickly that we weren’t just good at this — we genuinely loved it. Rapid SEO was born from that experience, and that original frustration still shapes how we work with every client today.

In 2017, demand for our SEO service meant we stopped taking on web design projects altogether. We’ve focused entirely on what we do best ever since. In December 2025, that commitment was formally recognised with a TechBehemoths Global Excellence Award.

Velocity Over Vanity

We don’t subscribe to the myth that SEO takes 6–12 months to show any movement. Our campaigns are built for traction. In one case, we ranked a client for a highly competitive London hospitality search term in under four months — something their previous agency hadn’t achieved in four years.

02

Transparency, Always

Every client receives clear monthly reporting tied directly to rankings, traffic, and business outcomes. No jargon, no vague dashboards. You’ll always know exactly what we’ve done, why we’ve done it, and what it’s achieved — in plain English.

03

Fair Terms

Campaigns start from £495 + VAT per month with a 3-month initial agreement. After that, there’s no long-term lock-in — you can scale, pause, or stop with flexibility. We’d rather earn your business on the strength of our results.

SEO built around your business — not a template.

Every engagement starts with a thorough audit of your site, your competitors, and your keyword landscape. We identify where you’re losing rankings, where the realistic gains are, and build a prioritised action plan — not a 40-page PDF that gathers dust.

  • Technical SEO audit — speed, Core Web Vitals, schema, crawlability
  • Keyword strategy targeting commercial intent, not just volume
  • On-page optimisation and content development aligned to search intent
  • High-authority link building through earned coverage and digital PR
  • Google Ads (PPC) management to complement organic rankings
  • Monthly reporting via Google Analytics 4 and Search Console
  • 24/7 website uptime monitoring included as standard
  • Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) for ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity

Founded by specialists. Run by specialists.

Every campaign is managed personally by Adam and Lisa. There are no account managers or junior staff between you and the people doing the work.
