A WEBSITE WITHOUT SEO IS LIKE
A Ship Without a Compass. Is Your Ship Lost at Sea?
Hi, I'm Derek, a web designer in Durham, NC. If you're serious about standing out in an ocean of endless online competition, you need more than a glorified business card. You need a website that is optimized for conversions.
Don't Disappear
"Fewer Than 5% of websites maintain first-page rankings for a whole year." Trust SEO SEMPER to rank your website where you need it, and keep it there. Since 2020, we've been the most consistent digital marketing company in Durham, NC.

Get Clicks
"Around 90.63% of all content on the Internet gets zero visits from Google. In other words, most web pages never reach their target audience." Ranking is one thing, but getting users to click on your website is another.
- Ahrefs 2020
More Conversions
Did you know that around 70% of small businesses don’t have properly placed CTAs on their websites? If you're not getting the correct audience in front of your website, then it won't matter anyway. We'll ensure that your website is an inbound marketing powerhouse!
Anti-spam
Small business owners who go the DIY or freelance routes often suffer heavily from spam. Google has continued to invest heavily in its own spam-fighting AI that's designed to catch both known and unknown trends in link schemes and on-page spam, so consider hiring a pro!

Frequently Asked Questions
You've got questions we've got answers.
Website Design
How long does it take to go live?
Generally, we'll be able to complete the website before the end of the first month. This is entirely dependent on how quickly we receive your feedback.
Do you serve all local services?
No. Please see our list of industries.
How many revisions do I get?
We'll seek your feedback on an initial design mockup on the main page within the first week, followed by two rounds of weekly edits. You'll be asked to comment on and/or approve the designs within 5 days, any revisions availed could take a few days to complete.
Do you offer any guarantees?
If you are not satisfied with the quality of our design services, we ask that you request a refund during the initial mockup stage. If the site design is approved and transferred to your account on our platform, the funds spent on research and development are non-refundable.
Are there any limitations?
Our developer is constantly updating and adding new features, optimizations, and integrations. Currently, like Wix, there is no way to transfer your SEO SEMPER site to a third party, however, you own everything, and can copy the design manually if desired.
Are there any perquisites?
● Your company must have at least one physical location in or around your target market, and it must have a registered Google Business Profile.● Please prepare plenty of company copy and pre-sized media files. We'll draft text and use stock images in places where it isn't provided upfront.● You'll need to activate a free Cloudflare account for use with your domain, but we recommend you also transfer your domain to their at-cost registrar. Not only will this give you the best at-cost domain registration, but will open the door for more customization, and give us standardized access to DNS.
Search Engine Optimization
Can you work on WordPress sites?
Sorry, we no longer work on websites outside of our platform.
Do you have an SEO only plan?
In short, no. We need to control the website to guarantee results.
How long does it take to rank?
We ask that you give the SEO time to work, typically 4-12 months, this is entirely dependent on your existing website and domain situation, as well as the proximity of your branch location(s) to your target markets.
What is content optimization?
We monitor Google Search Console for opportunities to combine and/or refresh articles based on how the search engine understands them and ensure they are as optimized to solve search intent as possible. We'll also proactively look for decay across the domain and rewrite pages to better position them over the top keyword competition.
What is content promotion?
We'll promote your best articles (especially those which solve an industry problem) to various paid content promotion networks for targeted traffic, and install custom code on your website that will encourage backlinking on both blogs and social media.
Are results permanent?
While careful planning, branding, and optimizing for humans can help websites stay ahead of Google's algorithms, it's important to note that nothing is necessarily set-it-and-forget-it in SEO, so we should be revisiting our analytics from time to time as the market changes.
