Peter Mahoney - Wordpress SEO Expert

I’ve been working with the web and SEO for 25 years.

And my experience with WordPress pre-dates it even being called WordPress!

Over the years I’ve consistently seen that the #1 best way to attract and retain clients to your business is through SEO (search engine optimisation).

With my wealth of experience I can approach it just as it should be done; in line with industry best practice, using Google’s latest guidance and recommendations, and most of all strategic.

Why is SEO the best digital marketing you can do?

Unlike PPC (Adwords), where you pay by click, SEO done well builds on its success each month. The 15% extra clicks you got last month will compound with this month's success. And the way I work is a simple fixed price. So when you're pulling in 10,000 visits a month you'll pay the same you did at 500.

What is the best approach to SEO?

My WordPress SEO approach is entirely in line with Google and Bing's guidelines - I very much believe the best approach is to give them what they want by fulfilling their guidelines and recommendations.

What is a Google friendly approach to SEO?

The best SEO you can have is aligned to Google's ethos, their future direction and their guidelines and recommendations. When you adopt that strategy, changes to their algorithm (which usually send website owners into a tailspin) actually benefit you!

I offer two main SEO services, a one-off complete SEO overhaul for WordPress, and also ongoing SEO WordPress campaigns.

I also have packages for WordPress support, hosting, backups and more. SEO is included in some of them – these packages are the most cost-effective way to get the most of me and my expert help for your business.

Grow your business with me.

The Limitations of Automated SEO Scanning Tools: Embracing the Wisdom of Experience

By Peter Mahoney

In the world of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), automated scanning tools have gained popularity for their ability to analyze websites and provide optimization recommendations.

However, when it comes to achieving optimal results, trusting the experience and knowledge of a seasoned professional with 25 years of hands-on expertise proves far more effective. In this article, we delve into the limitations of automated SEO scanning tools and highlight the value of leveraging the wisdom that comes with years of practical experience.

Contextual Understanding and Interpretation

Automated SEO scanning tools excel at collecting and presenting data, but they often lack the ability to comprehend the context and nuances of a website. While these tools can identify technical SEO issues and provide suggestions, they may not fully grasp the intricacies of your industry, target audience, or specific business goals. A professional with 25 years of experience possesses the knowledge and intuition to interpret the data within the appropriate context, allowing for more accurate and tailored optimization strategies that align with your unique needs.

Real-Time Adaptability and SEO Algorithm Updates

Search engine algorithms undergo constant updates, requiring SEO strategies to adapt in real-time. While automated tools strive to stay up-to-date, they may not always capture the most recent algorithm changes or accurately predict their impact on rankings. Professionals with extensive experience closely monitor algorithm updates and possess the agility to make swift adjustments to their SEO approaches. Their ability to navigate algorithmic shifts and implement effective strategies based on their knowledge of past updates can prove invaluable in maintaining a competitive edge.

Customized SEO Strategies and Targeted Solutions

Automated SEO scanning tools provide general recommendations based on predefined parameters and algorithms. However, these tools often fail to consider the unique aspects of your business, target audience, and competitive landscape. A professional brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise, enabling them to devise customized strategies and targeted solutions tailored specifically to your goals. Their ability to analyze your website holistically, understand your industry, and leverage their experience ensures that the optimization efforts are focused, effective, and aligned with your desired outcomes.

Optimization Beyond Technical Aspects

While automated tools excel at identifying technical SEO issues, they may overlook crucial aspects of optimization that extend beyond the technical realm. Factors such as user experience, content quality, branding, and holistic SEO approaches require human judgment, creativity, and a comprehensive understanding of your business. A professional with 25 years of experience can provide invaluable insights and recommendations in these areas, ensuring that your website’s optimization encompasses all essential components for long-term success.

While automated SEO scanning tools offer valuable insights, they cannot replace the depth of experience and knowledge that a professional brings to the table. Trusting the wisdom and expertise of an SEO professional with 25 years of practical experience allows for contextual understanding, real-time adaptability, customized strategies, and optimization beyond technical aspects, ultimately driving superior results for your website.

I have over 2,500 5-star feedback reviews (and I’ve never received less than the full five.)

Here’s just one example, from Mike who runs Costello Entertainments:

Migration, Hosting, SEO and Speed Work on our new website all completed quickly and efficiently and Peter was most helpful in fixing an issue with a Popover on the site as well. If you’re thinking about asking Peter to do a job for you or hesitating, JUST DO IT! – He knows programming and the internet inside out, he’ll get the job done for you professionally, with a smile. I wish I could call a plumber or a tradesman to do the jobs I can’t do myself with the same level of confidence.
