I am a counselling psychologist. I am enquiring about your ‘Complete WordPress SEO Overhaul’ package. Since I’ve allowed Google to find my website, when I search my name in Google, there are various individual pages in the search results with either an image or logo from my website as if it’s a page from my website. I don’t want these to show up; these are not pages I’ve created or listed on my website. Is the removal of these pages from the search results included in the package above?
Do you send keywords for approval prior to entering these in?
Lastly, do you offer any website support and what are your fees for the work mentioned below? I’d like to also add a logo to my footer and add a discrete privacy policy hyperlink in the footer area of the website. If you do provide these services, please can you provide a quote for this.
Thanks for contacting me. I’ll reply to each of your queries in turn.
1)
Could you please send a screenshot of what you’re seeing in Google please?
Also, I’d love to be able to look at your site and come back to you with some concrete recommendations. Any chance you might send me the URL for it please?

I don’t usually ask for keyword approval, no. There’s a few things to talk about regarding keywords. But I’ll try to be somewhat brief. Firstly, I recommend this short article:
https://peter.mahoneywebmarketing.com/a-few-key-words-about-keywords/
That’s one thing to know.
But another is that the keyword research I do for you looks at your content, competitors content and SEO setup, search volume and trends, etc.
Most clients don’t even send me their own ideas of what they want to rank for. They’re very welcome to of course, but really the usefulness there is to compare their list of ‘what they want’, versus ‘what Google and Bing are likely to rank their site for’.
I do occasionally have a situation where a client wants to rank for queries and terms they don’t even use on their website. Or the results of the research come out with really generic things, for example if the main thing on their site is just a series of ‘buy now’ buttons.
But of course, in situations like that – they have way bigger problems than just their SEO. 🙂

I do offer WordPress support, as part of one of my ongoing WordPress support and maintenance packages. You can read more information about those here:

The sort of work you’re after would be pretty quick actually. So you could get the cheapest package, and even one with SEO, and then just pay an extra 15 mins for those foot changes.
Sorry for all the information! But I do like to be thorough. 🙂
