Fulminous Software helps UK businesses get found by customers who are ready to enquire or buy. We combine technical SEO, content, link building and local SEO in one monthly programme, with itemised pricing in GBP and no long lock-in contract.
We would rather be clear up front. Here is who we work best with, and who we are probably not the right fit for.
Every campaign is built from the pieces your site actually needs. Because we are also a software development company, technical recommendations are written so they can be implemented, not just reported.
Fix what stops search engines crawling and understanding your site.
Match your pages to what customers actually search for.
Earn trust from reputable, relevant websites.
Show up when nearby customers search.
Grow organic sales for online stores.
A starting point, or a second opinion.
Tell us your website and goals. We will review it and tell you what is holding it back, and what we would do first.
A clear sequence, so you always know what is happening and why.
We learn about your business, customers, competitors and goals, and review how your site is performing today.
A technical, content and backlink review of your site, with a comparison against your main competitors.
A prioritised plan based on impact and effort, plus an itemised proposal in GBP showing exactly what is included each month.
Technical fixes, page improvements, new content and link building delivered in the order the plan sets out.
A plain-English report covering work completed, rankings, organic traffic, enquiries or sales, and next month's priorities.
We review progress regularly and adjust the plan as results, competitors and search features change.
Indicative monthly ranges, excluding VAT. Your exact price is confirmed after the audit and itemised before you commit. For more detail, read our guide to how much SEO costs in the UK.
Small businesses, startups and local service providers.
Growing SMEs with several services or locations.
Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce and custom stores.
Large sites, multi-location and highly competitive sectors.
One-off SEO audits typically cost £800–£3,500 depending on site size. We also offer fixed-price projects (audits, migrations, recovery work) and monthly retainers. Retainers run month to month with 30 days' notice.
No one can promise exact timings. This is a realistic guide for most UK businesses, and competitive sectors take longer.
Whoever you hire, ask these questions. They also show how we work.
| Ask… | A good answer | A warning sign |
|---|---|---|
| Do you guarantee rankings? | No. They explain the work they commit to and how progress is measured. | Guaranteed number one or "page one in 30 days". |
| Where will links come from? | Relevant, reputable sites earned through outreach and PR. | Vague answers, private blog networks or bought links. |
| Who does the work? | Named people who will work on your account. | You will not know, or it is handed to a large shared team. |
| What will I see each month? | A plain-English report tied to enquiries or sales. | An automated PDF of rankings only. |
| Who owns the accounts and content? | You do: Analytics, Search Console, Google Business Profile and content. | The agency keeps control of your accounts. |
| How long is the contract? | Rolling monthly, or a short minimum term with clear notice. | Long lock-ins with steep exit fees. |
Choosing between an agency, a freelancer or an in-house hire? An in-house hire gives you day-to-day control but covers one skill set. An agency covers technical, content and outreach together. Our SEO cost guide compares the options.
SEO results depend on the site underneath. As a software development company we can build, rebuild or fix the site itself, so SEO and development are planned together.
Each sector has its own search behaviour and rules, particularly where health and finance advice are involved.
Clinics, dental and aesthetic practices. Careful, trustworthy content and advertising-rule awareness.
Content that respects FCA-related promotion rules and builds trust.
Category, product and filter SEO for online stores.
Feature, comparison and integration pages that match buyer research.
Local and national visibility for agents and developers.
Long-tail, buying-intent searches for industrial suppliers.
Authority content for firms and consultants.
Local SEO and informational content for venues and providers.

Straight answers to the questions UK businesses ask most.
A professional SEO company improves how easily the right customers can find your website on search engines. In practice that means fixing technical problems that stop Google crawling or understanding your site, improving page content and structure around the terms your customers search for, earning links and mentions from reputable sites, optimising your Google Business Profile for local searches, and reporting on the results every month.
Our indicative ranges are £500-£1,500 per month for small businesses and local services, £1,500-£4,000 per month for growing SMEs, £4,000-£10,000 per month for ecommerce and competitive sectors, and £10,000+ per month for enterprise and multi-location work. One-off SEO audits typically cost £800-£3,500 depending on the size of the site. Your exact price is set after we review your site, competitors and goals, and is itemised before you commit. All prices exclude VAT.
Most businesses see early movement in the first two to three months, mainly for less competitive and long-tail searches. Meaningful growth for commercial terms usually takes four to six months, and highly competitive sectors can take twelve months or longer. Timing depends on your starting point, competition, site quality and how quickly recommended changes are implemented. SEO is a long-term channel, so we suggest planning for at least six months.
No. Nobody outside Google controls its results, and any company guaranteeing a number one position should be treated with caution. What we commit to is the work: a documented plan, agreed monthly deliverables, white-hat methods, and clear reporting on rankings, traffic and enquiries so you can judge the results yourself.
They do different jobs. Google Ads can bring traffic as soon as a campaign goes live, but visits stop when the budget stops. SEO takes longer to build but can keep delivering visits without paying per click. Many UK businesses use both: ads for immediate leads while SEO grows. We can advise on the right balance for your sector and budget.
We track what matters to your business: enquiries, calls, form submissions or online sales that come from organic search, alongside supporting measures such as rankings for agreed keywords, organic traffic, technical health and backlinks. You receive a monthly report in plain English that explains what was done, what changed and what happens next.
We can improve the things that help your content be understood and cited by AI-driven search: clear and accurate answers, well-structured pages, structured data, consistent business information and genuinely authoritative content. Nobody can control what an AI tool chooses to cite, so we treat this as an extension of good SEO rather than a guaranteed channel.
We use white-hat methods: technical fixes, helpful content, internal linking, digital PR, relevant outreach and legitimate local citations. We do not use private blog networks, paid link schemes, automated spam, fake reviews, keyword stuffing or scraped content, because these risk penalties that can damage your visibility.
Yes. We work with UK businesses remotely and can optimise your Google Business Profile, local citations, reviews and location pages for the areas you serve. We have dedicated pages for London, Manchester, Hereford and Truro, and we also support businesses in other UK towns and cities.
Not always. Many sites can be improved without a rebuild. If your site is slow, hard to update or limited by its platform, a redesign may help, and we can build SEO into that project so you do not lose existing rankings. As a software development company we can both advise on and implement technical changes.
Book a free discovery call. We review your site and goals, then provide an audit and an itemised proposal in GBP. Our SEO retainers run month to month with 30 days' notice, so there is no long lock-in. After you approve the proposal we agree a start date and begin with the technical and content priorities.
