Hello, welcome to The Online Presence Specialist. My name is Catherine. I take on websites that are drastically underperforming, and improve them with organic SEO. It makes the websites work better long term, and saves my clients money.

I also provide organic Facebook marketing for companies who want to be seen by thousands of people local to them. These services range from handy ebooks and 1:1 calls, all the way up to “done for you” monthly social media contracts.

Some clients call me a “fresh pair of eyes” that can see what’s holding their business back, plus the skillset to make it right again. That’s my job.

Is your website giving the right first impression? Most aren’t – for lots of reasons. It could be you built it yourself, but finally have the budget and future proofing to upgrade. Maybe you hate technology and need a trusted professional to take the reins. It could be time for your website to evolve with the business in terms of professionalism, or what you offer.

Either way, you need a website that is going to look the business and show off who you are as a company. How can I help you? I am a geek who loves building websites. I get a kick out of making them work properly. It feels good to see companies I like progressing the way they always wanted.

Is your social media falling on deaf ears?

It’s easy to feel lost in a sea of competition, paid ads and pressure selling (yuck) where everyone seems to be flogging something. You find yourself making it up as you go, and feel awkward that everyone will see what you’ve written.

If you’re looking to access local people to raise awareness of your business, social media is a brilliant place to start.

Together we can profile your customers, figure out what they love about you and help them get to know your business on a deeper level.

I have two service options – a Facebook Pro Call (get access to all of my trade secrets and optimise your page) or full content creation, design and scheduling.

All websites and social media requests are so different, that I quote every client individually.

The best thing to do, is give mea call so we can have a chat on the phone about what you need. From there. I’ll draw up a proposal of what I’ll do, how, why and in what order. I think it’s important that clients have a really clear picture of what’s going to happen before, during and after a project.

My work is based on common sense – how can I make the most of the digital platforms available to your business?

Most businesses jump into paid ads and sponsored key words much too soon. People are led to believe that sponsored posts are the only way to get eyes on their business.

That’s not true!

Paid ads and keywords tend to snowball like a Las Vegas slot machine, (in fact, they share an almost identical algorithm) putting out less and less with each hefty spend.

This is a slippery slope that I like to help my clients avoid. My social media and SEO web services make the most of organic strategies, so that you can build a genuine, local following and save “ad spend” for something that will serve you better.

There’s a lot of smoke and mirrors about SEO. I’ve written some stuff about what you need to know here.

Hello, I’m Catherine (AKA The Online Presence Specialist). I’m a one-woman operation working in tech.

When you book a job with me, what you see is what you get. Your business will only ever be dealing with me. I never sub-contract my work overseas, so you know you will get 100% of my expertise. There will always have a friendly voice at the end of the telephone (spoiler alert, it’s mine). Read more about me here, or give me a call.

Your website will become one of the most valuable digital asset you own. This means it’s critically important you have full control and access to it.

I ensure that all clients have logins and full admin access so that they can always make changes without the “gatekeeper effect” that some web developers live by.
