Why SEO matters for architects
The searches your customers make
before they call anyone.
🏗️
Homeowners search before they call an architect
Most people looking for an architect start on Google. A studio without good search visibility misses the initial shortlisting that determines who gets the enquiry.
📂
Portfolio content builds search authority and converts clients
Project case studies with specific location and project type details rank for long-tail searches and give prospective clients the confidence to enquire.
📍
Local search is how residential clients find their architect
Despite being a specialist service, the majority of residential clients search locally first. Google Maps visibility is often the difference between being shortlisted or not.

Common SEO problems
Why most architects
aren't getting found online.
No project-type pages
A single services page doesn't rank for 'house extension architect' or 'loft conversion design near me'.
Portfolio not optimised for search
Beautiful project photography with no text content gives Google nothing to rank. Portfolio pages need proper page titles, descriptions and case study copy.
Weak local signals
Without GBP optimisation and local citations, appearing in the Maps pack for local architectural searches is unlikely.
Too few reviews
Clients compare architectural studios online before enquiring. More reviews means more conversions when you're found.
