✦WordPress SEO services for small businesses across the UK.
WordPress runs over 40% of the web, but the platform alone won’t get you ranking.
You need someone who actually understands what’s happening under the bonnet. Themes that are bloating your code. Plugins that conflict with each other. Permalinks that confuse Google. Hosting that drags your Core Web Vitals into the red.
At Wrise, we’ve been doing SEO for WordPress sites since 2011. We’re a UK agency that helps small businesses turn WordPress from “that thing my web designer set up” into a proper organic growth engine, with monthly SEO packages that are genuinely affordable.
WordPress specialists
Yoast, RankMath, All in One, WooCommerce, Divi, Elementor, custom builds. We’ve worked with all of it.
Budget friendly
From £99/mo. No setup fees. No upfront costs. Quality WordPress SEO without the agency premium.
Risk-free commitment
No long-term contracts. No sign-up fees. Stay because it’s working. Not because you’re locked in.
Proven results
15+ years optimising WordPress sites. From local trades to ecommerce stores doing serious volume.
Hands-off service
We’ll make the changes directly in WordPress — or work with your developer if you’d rather. Your call.
Why WordPress SEO is different.
Generic SEO advice will only get you so far. WordPress comes with its own quirks and its own opportunities. Here’s what we focus on for WordPress sites that you won’t get from a one-size-fits-all agency.
Theme & plugin audit
Off-the-shelf themes and excessive plugins are the silent killers of WordPress rankings. We audit what you’ve got, identify code bloat, plugin conflicts and security risks, then make recommendations to slim things down without breaking the site.
Core Web Vitals & speed
WordPress sites often fail Core Web Vitals because of unoptimised images, render-blocking scripts, bloated themes and poor hosting. We tackle the lot — image compression, caching, lazy loading, CDN setup, script deferral — to get your site loading fast.
SEO plugin configuration
Yoast, RankMath, All in One SEO. Most are installed but never properly configured. We set up the right plugin for your site, dial in the settings (XML sitemaps, schema, breadcrumbs, social cards) and make sure nothing’s accidentally noindexed.
Permalinks & URL structure
WordPress’s default permalinks are a disaster for SEO. We restructure your URLs into clean, keyword-rich slugs without breaking existing links, and set up the right redirects so you don’t lose any equity in the process.
WooCommerce SEO
Selling online with WooCommerce? Different game. We optimise category pages, product pages, schema markup and faceted navigation, and tackle the canonical and indexation issues that come with stock variations and out-of-stock products.
Migrations & site moves
Moving to or from WordPress? Switching themes? Restructuring? Migrations are where rankings go to die, but they don’t have to. We plan redirect maps, preserve URL equity and monitor everything closely so your traffic doesn’t fall off a cliff.
Topic clusters & blog SEO
WordPress was built for publishing. We use that to your advantage. Pillar pages, supporting cluster posts, internal linking strategies and category restructures that turn your blog from a feed of random posts into a proper topical authority hub.
Indexation & crawl control
WordPress generates a lot of pages you don’t want in Google; tag archives, author pages, paginated comments, attachment pages. We audit what’s indexed, fix crawl waste and make sure Google’s crawl budget is spent on the pages that actually matter.
Schema markup
Local business, FAQ, article, product, review, breadcrumb schema. Most WordPress sites are missing the structured data that helps Google understand the page. We implement it properly through your SEO plugin or directly in code.
Most agencies treat all sites the same. We don’t. Our WordPress SEO services are tailored to the platform, because that’s where the ranking gains actually live.

What are WordPress SEO services?
WordPress SEO services are a tailored set of SEO practices specifically designed for sites built on WordPress. This includes plugin configuration (Yoast, RankMath, All in One SEO), Core Web Vitals optimisation, theme audits, permalink structure, schema markup, content strategy, and addressing the platform-specific quirks that affect indexation and crawlability. The goal is to make your WordPress site as visible as possible in Google’s search results.
What’s included in your WordPress SEO packages?
Our monthly WordPress SEO packages include keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical SEO (including Core Web Vitals work), local SEO, content creation, link building, and monthly reporting. The exact mix depends on which package you choose. Our entry-level Seed package starts at £99/mo and includes the essentials. Our Sprout (£249/mo) and Tree (£499/mo) packages add deeper work for businesses ready to scale.
Do I need Yoast or RankMath?
You need one good SEO plugin, but the choice between Yoast, RankMath and All in One SEO is less important than having one of them properly configured. We’ll review what you’ve got installed, recommend the best option for your site, and set it up so you’re actually getting the benefit. XML sitemaps, schema, meta tags, breadcrumbs and canonicals all sorted properly.
Can you fix my Core Web Vitals?
Yes. WordPress sites often fail Core Web Vitals because of unoptimised images, render-blocking scripts, bloated themes or poor hosting. We tackle the lot — image compression, caching, lazy loading, CDN setup, script deferral and theme cleanup — to get your Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint and Cumulative Layout Shift scores into the green.
Do you work with WooCommerce?
Absolutely. WooCommerce SEO is a big part of what we do. We optimise category pages, product pages, schema markup, faceted navigation and the canonical/indexation issues that come with stock variations and out-of-stock products. If you’re running an ecommerce store on WordPress, we’ve got you covered.
I’m migrating to or from WordPress. Can you help?
Yes, and you really do want someone helping with this. Migrations are where rankings go to die — but only if they’re done badly. We plan redirect maps, preserve URL equity, monitor indexation closely and make sure your traffic doesn’t fall off a cliff during the move. Get in touch before the migration, not after.
When will I see results?
SEO is a long-term strategy, and results can typically take anywhere from 3 to 6 months to start becoming noticeable. However, this timeline can vary depending on factors such as the competitiveness of your industry, the current state of your WordPress site, the specific tactics employed and the budget.
The good news is, SEO builds lasting benefits over time. Unlike PPC (such as a Google Ads campaign) which stops when your budget runs out, the efforts made to optimise your website and enhance rankings continue to benefit your site long into the future.
What is the difference between on-page and off-page SEO?
On-page SEO refers to the optimisation of elements within your WordPress site, such as content, meta tags, images and internal links, to improve its visibility and relevance to search engines.
Off-page SEO, on the other hand, involves activities outside of your website, such as building backlinks, digital PR and brand mentions, to enhance your site’s authority and reputation.
Can you guarantee first-page rankings on Google?
Nope. No ethical SEO agency can guarantee first-page rankings on Google.
Search engine algorithms are complex and constantly changing, and rankings can be influenced by many factors beyond our control. However, we employ best practices and proven WordPress SEO strategies to improve your chances of achieving high rankings over time.
Can you help with SEO for a brand new WordPress site?
Yes. From initial keyword research and site structure planning to plugin configuration, on-page optimisation and content creation, we’ll ensure your new WordPress site is set up for SEO success from day one. Getting things right at launch saves a lot of cleanup work later.
Do you provide a free SEO audit?
Yes, we provide a free preliminary SEO audit of your WordPress site.
However, we don’t just run your site through an automated tool. We actually take the time to look at your site, your themes, your plugins, your content and your competitors, and provide real ideas. This audit identifies key areas for improvement and provides a roadmap for enhancing your search engine performance.
Will you make changes directly in WordPress?
Yes, once you’ve given us the green light. We can log in and make the changes ourselves, which saves you time and avoids back-and-forth with developers. If you’d prefer to have your in-house team or web designer make the changes, that’s fine too. We’ll provide clear instructions and work with whoever you’re comfortable with.
Do you have experience in my industry?
It’s easier to list the sectors we haven’t worked with! In the past 15 years, we’ve worked with a wide range of brands on WordPress, from local trades and service businesses to ecommerce stores, law firms, holiday lettings, finance, SaaS and more.
Do you offer white label WordPress SEO?
Yes. We do the hard work, you take the credit. It’s that simple. Sell our services as they are (with markup) or include them in your own, larger digital marketing packages. Loads of UK web designers and agencies use us behind the scenes for the SEO side of WordPress projects.
Do you use black hat SEO techniques?
No. We strictly adhere to Google’s guidelines to ensure we are completely above board.
Black hat SEO techniques, such as keyword stuffing, cloaking and buying links, can result in severe penalties from search engines. We focus on ethical, sustainable strategies that build long-term success and protect your website’s reputation.
