How We Handle Your Project

If you have already had a website built and want to improve its performance, or feel as if it isn't performing at all, this is how we approach your project.

Market & SEO Research

The key to building an effective strategy starts with understanding your market and what your prospective customers are searching for. We're typically handling hundreds of thousands of queries during this phase of a project.

Data Analysis

With your research, we build your strategy based on real-world data from multiple search engines and from assessing what your competitors are doing in your marketplace.


From this we will know how to develop your site, how many pages it needs to be, what content should ideally be included and can advise on costs and timescales.

Benchmarked Data

We look at where you are now and contrast that with our market research and keyword datasets. This helps us understand the necessary actions required to get you to where you need to be.

Site Hierarchy, New Pages, Content Adjustments, Content Marketing Plans

Your site is ready to be published. Now we look at how you're going to engage with your clients, for example: via LiveChat with operators or AI bots. We also assess how to collect and handle data to develop your marketing campaigns and drive sales opportunities.

On-site Agency Works

Whilst a lot of the of the on-page SEO is conducted during the website build, at this stage we work to optimise the site as a whole, conducting technical tasks and tweaking performance further. Our projects meet Google guidelines on ideal web vital scoring as a minimum.


Where requested, we also continue to work on off-site SEO tasks and set up consoles, analytics, profiles and grow domain and backlink profiles. 


Off-site Domain & Backlink Management

With the research we carried out in phase one, we build short to mid-term customer acquisition strategies covering search engine Pay-Per-Click (PPC), social media campaigns & more.

SEO Laboratory Tracking

Utilising your research we carried out in phase one, we build short to mid-term customer acquisition strategies covering search engine PPC, social media campaigns and more.

90% of assessments we carry out show that the sites built had no marketing or SEO research conducted prior to building.

To build a website, you require an understanding of your market: where your prospective customers are going online for information, where they're making their purchases and what they are searching for, as a minimum. If you don't have this data, you are effectively building your site blind. 


Having a website doesn't automatically mean results, but building it correctly as a standalone strategy or as part of a larger marketing campaign will.


Before we can even quote for your project, we will need to understand your digital market and build your data.


Should I have a HTML custom coded site or a CMS?

Every aspect of web design should incorporate search engine best practices to maximise ranking positions for a company website within its chosen market. 

This includes the design elements, size, file types, and attributes of each image or video on display. Also considered is the way content is loaded and displayed on your site, among a significant list of other variables concerning the website design in particular. 

Digital Scientists are experts first and foremost in SEO and as such, a website that is to perform in search engines and other online platforms will not succeed without meticulous SEO research.

Our clients expect the best results so before we embark on any company website design project (where the objective is to generate revenue from online enquiry), we will acquire, clean and analyse thousands of search queries from various sources online. 

This data will be used to advise our client on the opportunity from their established market and how many pages the website will need to be to achieve their objectives. 

Without expert SEO consultancy a website designer may very well create a beautiful site but it will serve only existing customers who are already familiar with the business without drawing potential customers in.

Digital Scientist clients get the best of both.

What is a CMS?

A Content Management System (CMS) is a software solution used to create and modify digital content online. For example, a CMS is typically used for small businesses and enterprises to display content for a company Intranet, or for web-based content of which is displayed on a company website. 


There are a large variety of Content Management Solutions on the market; the most notable are mentioned on this page. These vary in ease of use, typically requiring a combination of design and coding skills to make the best use of the platforms, although most aim to be a codeless design system.

What is the best Content Management System?

A large variety of solutions exist between popular Content Management Solutions (CMS). Some are more geared towards developers and SEO's; others are more focused towards micro-entities, entrepreneurs and small businesses. The best CMS very much depends on what your objectives are, how you want your website to function, and where you are obtaining your traffic from. For example: if you are predominantly advertising and accessing your target market through Instagram, a simpler CMS builder may be the right option as it will require less technical knowledge and you won't need to worry so much about meeting search engine guidelines and best practices.

Content Management Systems Examples

An example of a Content Management System could be WordPress, it being hugely popular with its template/theme-based builder whilst providing varying levels of access to its CSS and HTML, all the while having a massive network of integrated app solutions for a variety of business needs.


A similar and simpler builder would be Wix, which provides an intuitive 'drag and drop' builder with .js coding ability for custom apps and functionality. This builder is simpler to use for a new local enterprise and, like WordPress, has an app marketplace where you can download and use apps covering a variety of functions such as blogging, email marketing, LiveChat, analytics and more. Wix are constantly developing new email marketing, CRM and other integrated functions.


Both CMS solutions provide limited access to performance tweaking (Wix more so than WordPress) of the site built into the solution but are equally good from an SEO perspective. We have clients who rank for thousands of keywords on Google in positions 1-3, have preference and use either WordPress or Wix. The decision on the builder however is typically client-led on smaller budgets.


Other builders we are familiar with are as below but have typically less functionality:

  • My 1&1/Ionos
  • GoDaddy
  • 123 Reg
  • SquareSpace
  • Site123

There are other solutions but in terms of the best examples of CMS, the above are the front-runners.

Website Redesign?

Quite often we are asked to totally redevelop a website. However, upon inspection the site in question performs very well. 


Our role is to ensure your site will achieve your objectives before you opt for a new site entirely. If you feel the design is outdated for example, or is not bringing in adequate lead generation, the issue may be that you need to focus on rebranding and design or employ SEO services.

We can assist with branding and video, where appropriate. What you should avoid is jumping into paying for a complete redevelopment, as you may end up with the same result.
