Most agencies keep this vague. Here is the whole sequence, including the points where you can stop.
A full diagnostic across technical, on page, local and AI visibility with a prioritised action list. Costs nothing, carries no obligation, and is written so another agency could act on it.
What we would do, in what order, and what it costs. Written down before anything starts, so nothing gets added later without asking.
Crawling, indexing, speed and structured data fixed first. Content work rarely pays off while these are broken.
The service, location and category pages that match commercial searches, built or rewritten to convert rather than to read nicely.
Links, citations and entity signals that make the rankings hold when a competitor starts spending.
Search Console data reviewed against the plan, and the plan changed when the numbers say the angle was wrong.
A fuller breakdown of what moves fast and what does not is on how long SEO takes.
Diagnosis and technical repair. Some technical fixes move rankings quickly, particularly indexation faults.
Money pages built and rewritten. Early movement usually appears here, though rarely on the hardest terms.
Authority work compounds. This is normally where competitive terms start to move.
Defending positions and widening coverage. Anyone promising this timeline shortened is guessing.
No invented testimonials anywhere on this site. Where results were not verified, we say so on the page.
