We help New Zealand businesses improve their online visibility through data-driven search engine optimisation and the emerging wave of AI-powered platforms, including Gemini, Claude AI, and ChatGPT. As search behaviour evolves, so does our approach, blending proven SEO with new strategies designed to keep your business discoverable wherever your customers are searching.

Our methodology covers the full SEO lifecycle from initial research through to ongoing refinement. We start with AI-powered keyword research, where we identify and cluster search terms by user intent so your content targets the right people at every stage of their journey. From there, we conduct thorough technical audits to uncover crawl waste, resolve speed bottlenecks, address indexing issues, and ensure search engines can efficiently access and understand your site. On-page optimisation follows, refining title tags, meta descriptions, heading structures, internal linking, and content alignment to give every page the strongest possible foundation.

Beyond individual pages, we take a broader view with content hub planning, mapping out pillar pages and supporting content that builds topical authority in your niche.

This is complemented by white-hat link building that earns genuine backlinks from reputable New Zealand and Australian sources, strengthening your domain authority over time.

For businesses serving local customers, we setup, optimise and manage Google Business Profiles to improve rankings in map packs.

We work across all major website platforms, including WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, and Weebly.

Every campaign starts with a clear, prioritised roadmap, typically structured around a 180-day plan that balances quick wins with compounding long-term growth. You will always know what is being worked on, why it matters, and how it connects to your broader business goals.

Alongside SEO, we provide complementary services that support the overall health and performance of your website. These include WordPress technical support for plugin conflicts, theme issues, and platform updates, security and malware removal to protect your site and your customers, website speed performance optimisation to improve load times and user experience, reliable web hosting solutions, and conversion rate optimisation to ensure the traffic you attract translates into meaningful leads and sales.

Success stories

Challenge

An Auckland-based plastering company switched agencies after 12 months of stagnant results. At handover, the website was barely bringing any business. Impressions were low at around 14K/month, rankings were on average at page 2 / 3 and the website was not ranking for core services like "gib stopping auckland," "interior plastering auckland," and "plasterers auckland." The client needed a complete organic growth strategy to become a dominant local player in a competitive trade industry.

Solution

We executed a full-funnel SEO strategy combining technical seo, local keyword targeting, and content-led authority building. We built out high-intent service pages for important locations and services, we created informational blog content targeting long-tail queries NZ homeowners search for, and optimised on-page elements across the site. Internal linking and content clustering were used to strengthen topical authority around plastering, gib stopping, and ceilings repairs in the Auckland.

Result

Within 12 months, monthly organic traffic grew from a wooping 403%. Monthly impressions surged from 14K to over 41K (+205%). Average Google position improved from to 20+ places, placing the client firmly on page one for all of the key service terms. The site now ranks for 1,000+ keywords across plastering, gib fixing, painting, and ceiling services. Blog content alone drives 40%+ of all organic clicks, proving the long-term value of a content-led SEO approach for trade businesses.

Challenge

The client's website was built on the Web Genius platform, which offered limited flexibility, poor performance, and minimal SEO capability. The site had outdated content that didn't reflect their services or target the right search terms. Organic visibility was limited and they needed a complete digital rebuild to start generating leads through organic search and compete in their local market.

Solution

We rebuilt the website from scratch on WordPress with Bricks Builder, delivering a faster, more flexible, and SEO-ready platform. Every page was rewritten with keyword-targeted content designed to capture roofing search intent. We implemented a full technical and on-page SEO strategy including site structure, metadata, internal linking, and performance and conversion optimisation. This was supported by regular blog content, and ongoing link building to build long-term organic growth.

Result

Within 18 months, conversions grew 10x and total site visits increased 675%. The site showed consistent upward momentum in both clicks and impressions, with the strongest growth occurring from late 2025 onward. The client now has a scalable platform generating ongoing organic leads without reliance on paid advertising

Challenge

Client sold his previous business and was branching into the construction industry with a new deck building company. Zero online presence, no domain authority, no brand recognition. Competing against well-established deck builders dominating Google's first page in a saturated local market. Needed a website that converts visitors into leads and an SEO strategy to generate organic traffic and to establish the business in a competitive trade niche.

Solution

Designed and developed a CRO-optimised website built around conversion architecture, trust signals, and local relevance for the Auckland market. Executed a targeted SEO strategy combining technical seo, high-intent keyword targeting, and strategic content creation. Published authoritative blog content addressing NZ-specific questions, deck costs, building consents, and material comparisons to build topical authority. Implemented local SEO fundamentals to capture nearby searches.

Result

From brand-new domain to #1 Google ranking for the primary target keyword within 6 months of launch. Daily impressions grew to 1000+, with a 3x increase in last three months. March 2026 alone delivered 101 organic clicks, up from just 2 in the first month. Now ranking for 1,000+ keywords across deck building, pergolas, and construction services in Auckland. All growth achieved through organic SEO with zero paid advertising spend.

Through my previous business DIVERT and my current one SELLevation, I have worked with SEO Consultant Auckland for a few years, and Spiro has always gone out of his way to meet and prioritise us. He has a great skill for not confusing You with too much SEO 'technobabble' and is great at helping understand what You are trying to achieve, as well as really spending time to understand what exactly my business does, and its point of difference.

A huge thanks to Spiro and the team for their SEO services and general website updates for us at Allens Group. Their results-driven and non-pushy sales approach is what made us choose them over a multitude of others, and we're so happy with the increase in enquiries that we are now getting through our website. They listen to want we want and need, action accordingly, and nothing is a problem. They update us at every step of the process and charge reasonably - 100% recommend.

As a small recruiting agency just starting out, we struggled to find anyone willing to help without charging big agency fees. Then we found Spiro. He’s an incredible SEO consultant who offered an affordable strategy suited to our budget. Within just 4-5 months, we ranked #2 on Google for our most important keyword. If you’re looking for a results-driven SEO consultant in Auckland, we highly recommend him.
