SEO Tools, Set Up Expertly
With over 25 years of SEO experience, I specialise in ensuring that businesses across Hampshire, Surrey, and beyond have all the essential SEO tools set up correctly right from the start! Many websites miss out on valuable insights and performance improvements simply because their analytics and webmaster tools aren’t fully configured or integrated or even set up at all!
Why Proper SEO Tool Setup Matters
Setting up the right SEO tools, such as Google Search Console (GSC), Google Analytics 4 (GA4), Bing Webmaster Tools (BWT), and Google Tag Manager (GTM), is mission critical for monitoring, measuring, and optimising your website’s search performance.
It’s not just about installing these tools, but making sure that each one is configured accurately and that they all work seamlessly together for gathering comprehensive data and helping to provide actionable insights.
SEO Tool Setup Services
I offer a complete, hands-on service for implementing and configuring all your essential SEO tools, including:
- Google Search Console (GSC): I’ll verify your website using the most suitable method (DNS, HTML tag, Google Analytics, or GTM), submit your sitemap, and configure user permissions so you can track indexing, performance, and technical issues effectively.
- Google Analytics 4 (GA4): I’ll set up your GA4 property, configure data streams, and ensure accurate tracking of all website activity. I’ll also integrate GA4 with GSC so you can view search performance alongside user behaviour in one place.
- Bing Webmaster Tools (BWT): Your site will be added and verified in BWT, either by importing from GSC or manual setup, ensuring that you’re visible and trackable on Bing as well as Google.
- Google Tag Manager (GTM): I’ll install GTM on your site, allowing you to manage all your tracking tags (including GSC and GA4) without editing your website’s code, streamlining future updates and deployments.
There are other tools too, if you need them, such as Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity, and the Yoast SEO plugin for WordPress websites. Speak with me to discuss adding these to measure on-screen visitor behaviour.
What’s Included in My SEO Tool Setup
Just so that you know what’s included, here’s what I do for you:
- Full installation and verification of each tool, using best practices for your site’s platform and needs.
- Integration between tools (e.g., linking GSC with GA4 and publishing Search Console reports in GA4 for enhanced reporting).
- Submission of sitemaps and configuration of key settings for optimal indexing and data collection.
- Documentation of all setup steps, so you always know what’s been implemented and how to access your data.
- Guidance on user permissions, so you and your team have the right level of access for ongoing collaboration.
If you’d like me to remain as an admin on your tools I am always happy to oversee the data and act as an ongoing consultant for you. As a former deputy IT manager and a lifelong systems administrator, trust is guaranteed.
