Advisory firms
Firms sold on judgement rather than price. Clients compare a few names, and the site is most of what they have to go on, so it has to show the thinking, not just list the services.

SEO and AI SEO for professionals
Steadfold is a two-person web studio for professionals. We design and build websites with one priority: that the right people find you, whether they type into Google or ask an AI assistant who to call. SEO and AI SEO are the starting point, not the upsell.

What we prioritise
A good-looking site that nobody finds is a brochure. We build the other kind: one that ranks for the searches that matter and shows up when someone asks an AI assistant who to call.
We start with what people in your area actually type into Google, then shape the pages, headings and copy so the site answers it. The audit is part of the build, not a bolt-on sold afterwards.
More clients now ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity who to call before they search at all. We structure your site so those assistants can read it, trust it and cite you by name: clear entity data, answer-shaped pages, and credentials the models can verify.
Rankings move and AI answers change. On a care plan we re-run the audit every quarter, fix what slipped, and tell you in plain English whether you are still being recommended.

Built for the phone first
A referral text, a Google Maps result, an AI answer with your name in it. All of them get opened on a phone, usually in the thirty seconds before someone decides whether to call.
Every page is laid out for a thumb before it is stretched to a desktop, so nothing important hides below a fold or behind a menu.
The number, the booking link and the enquiry form sit where a thumb lands. A referral that arrives by text should turn into a call in seconds.
Hand-built pages with no page-builder weight. Fast on a train, fast on a bad signal, and a ranking factor in its own right.
Built for
Services
We only build websites, and only for professionals. Every project begins with an SEO and AI SEO audit, and the design is shaped around what it finds. Then we build it, launch it, and keep checking that you are still being found.
Talk to usA written audit of where you rank and why, then the fixes built into the site: page structure, local search, and the practice-area pages that actually win enquiries.

Who we work with
Where the decision to call is made by someone comparing three tabs, and the site is most of what they have to go on.
Probably not a fit: sites under $5k, anything that has to be live next week, or work where the brief is “make it pop”.
Firms sold on judgement rather than price. Clients compare a few names, and the site is most of what they have to go on, so it has to show the thinking, not just list the services.
Service pages · people · insight pages
Where what you can say is governed by a professional body. Calm, plain, and written so it can be signed off without a fight.
Compliance-safe copy · disclosures · credentials
Anywhere a client books a person rather than buys a product. Locations, people and availability, findable in under a minute.
People pages · locations · booking
Sole practitioners and small partnerships whose name is the brand. A site that carries that reputation without looking like a template.
Profile · services · enquiry
Why it matters
Referrals check Google. Google is now checked by AI. We build so that both of them point at you, and the two of us answer the phone about it afterwards.
See the six stepsHow we work
The SEO and AI SEO audit comes before the design, you see a real page before you spend anything, and the fee is agreed before the build starts.
You send the form. We read it properly and reply within one business day, and it will be a person writing back rather than an autoresponder.
One business day
We check where you rank, whether AI assistants mention you, and what your competitors are winning. Then we design and build one page for your firm, free, so you get a real link rather than a picture of one.
Free, no strings
We go through the page together and work out what the rest of the site needs. You leave with a number and a date.
Fixed fee agreed here
Design and development in weekly releases you review in the browser. The price does not move once it is agreed.
One to two weeks
The audit findings become the site: page structure, local search signals, structured data and answer-shaped copy, so both Google and AI assistants have a reason to recommend you.
Included
We ship it, connect analytics and your enquiry inbox, and show your office how to run it.

Sitemap through to launch, with the SEO work done as part of it rather than sold separately.
Hosting, updates and new pages once the site is live. Cancel any month.
