If your WordPress website looks great but isn’t bringing in the traffic or leads you expected, you don’t have a design problem - you have an SEO problem.

This problem is quite common. The solution is fairly easy.

Most WordPress websites are beautifully designed but have little or no SEO optimization personalized specifically for your business when coming out of the starting gate at launch.

Our 20+ years of hands-on experience in WordPress website design and search engine optimization gives Maureen McCullough LLC, a New Jersey based website design and SEO agency, a unique problem solving perspective.

Your website should be working for you — not sitting on the sidelines doing nothing. We help businesses across New Jersey improve visibility, increase rankings, and convert more visitors into customers.

In other words, we get the phone ringing again so you can convert those calls into clients or customers.

Our Process

  • Every project begins with a discovery Zoom call to define your goals, timeline, and scope.
  • Once we understand your needs, you receive a custom quote and action plan based on that conversation.
  • Projects are scoped in detail to avoid misunderstandings and to keep everyone on the same page.
  • Everything is customized to your website and your business goals.
  • You’ll know what’s being done, why it matters, and what the results are.
  • Transparency is always part of the process.

 

Optional Ongoing SEO Maintenance

Once your site is optimized, it needs to stay that way in order to keep from falling off Google's radar.

SEO isn’t a one-and-done task. Many WordPress sites look beautiful but are built with little or no optimization behind the scenes.

We offer ongoing SEO maintenance for WordPress websites that keeps your site performing well and compliant with Google’s latest updates.

  • Tracking and reporting key metrics.
  • Updating plugins and site software.
  • Monitoring keyword performance and visibility.
  • Implementing new optimizations as search trends evolve.
