I started this because
good businesses
were losing to
bad websites.
An independent Aberdeen agency. We help North-East businesses look as good online as they are in person — and build the SEO that turns clicks into customers.
How we got here.
Aberdeen Marketing Agency started out of a simple frustration. I kept watching brilliant local businesses — the kind of places with great work, loyal customers, and decades of reputation — get steamrolled online by competitors with deeper pockets and bigger ad budgets.
It didn't add up. A 30-year-old family business shouldn't lose its first-page spot to a brand-new chain that arrived in town last week — but it kept happening. Because nobody was helping local businesses fight back with the tools they actually needed: a website that worked, and an SEO strategy that put them where their customers were looking.
So I built that help.
I started small — one website at a time, one ranking at a time. Today, we work with ambitious businesses across Aberdeen and the North-East, helping them get found, win trust, and turn clicks into customers.
We're still small. We're still local. And we still keep our client list intentionally short — because doing the work properly takes time, and we don't believe in shortcuts.
Four things we won't compromise on.
These aren't just words we put on a slide deck. They actually shape how we work, who we work with, and what we say no to.
Direct access
When you work with us, you work directly with me. No account managers. No support tickets. No jargon. When you call, I answer.
Aberdeen focused
We only work with businesses in the North-East. We know the local search landscape better than anyone else, and generic SEO advice doesn't beat real local knowledge.
Data driven, result focused
We measure what matters: rankings, traffic, and visibility — the leading indicators that actually move the needle for your business.
Radical transparency
If we can't help you, we'll tell you. No hiding behind confusing reports. No upselling services you don't need. We only succeed when you do.
No agency
theatre.
Just the work.
We've cut everything out of how we work that doesn't actually help our clients win. Here's what that looks like day-to-day.
You deal directly with me
You won't get passed between account managers and junior staff. You deal directly with me, meaning I know your business, your goals, and exactly where your budget is going.
A strictly capped client list
We only take on a set number of clients at any one time. When the roster is full, it's full. It's the only way to guarantee every business gets the focus required to rank.
Clear, actionable reporting
Monthly updates in plain English — what we did, what worked, and what's next. No 40-page PDFs full of vanity metrics and acronyms you can't decipher.
We partner for the long haul
We don't churn through accounts to hit arbitrary monthly targets. We build long-term relationships and let the SEO results compound month over month.
Zero fluff.
Real results.
The kind of growth that turns a quiet inbox into a fully booked diary — and a side gig into a proper local business.
Aberdeen, Scotland
The Granite City. Where every street has a story, every business knows the next one down the road, and a good reputation still travels faster than any ad campaign.
We're not a London
agency with a postcode.
Plenty of agencies will take a North-East client without ever having set foot in Aberdeen. They'll write your content using generic keyword tools and hope nobody notices you're a Banchory accountant being marketed like a Brixton barista.
We're here. We've grown up with this region. We know the difference between Bridge of Don and Bridge of Dee. We know which industries are booming and which are quietly going under. And we know the local search queries your customers actually type — because we've lived among them for years.
Local SEO done by people who actually live locally. It's a small detail. It changes everything.
