Fintech (short for Financial Technology) refers to any software, mobile application, or digital technology designed to automate, improve, or replace traditional financial services for businesses and consumers.

At its core, fintech integrates technology (such as cloud computing, APIs, artificial intelligence, and blockchain) into financial operations to make processes faster, cheaper, more accessible, and more secure than traditional paper-and-branch banking.

This varies from business to business and it wholly depends on the pre-existing organic performance, brand authority and more. Typically the Fintech clients we work with see results in the first 6-12 months, some sooner, it depends.

We assess your Google search console data to understand where your pre-existing impressions and clicks come from, we segment out your fintech brand searches, we then segment by pages and queries to understand where the opportunities exist.

Fintech SEO has some complexity to it, primarily because a lot of it really boils down to brand establishment and brand search volume and then the non brand side of things - how much of that traffic is high quality or potentially qualified for conversion?

A lot of Fintech SEO strategies look at highlighting how their platform is a superior choice, often followed by self-promotional content or listicles - which is a dying strategy as Google and LLMS clamp down on it. 

When we work with Fintech brands we size up the brand, the marketplace, the target audience and marketplace before we do any SEO work. We understand the mechanics of the business first - from SEO implementation and technical SEO recommendation implementation sign offs through to getting content through regulatory compliance.

We don’t miss-sell SEO or set unrealistic expectations, we’re always very honest and open with Fintech brands about the scale of SEO work and that the impact of SEO is heavily conditional on not only the willingness to get things implemented through to complex approval processes.

Because it helps to facilitate growth where required be it new customers, sign ups, leads or revenue. For most fintech brands, growth is key and usually, it’s driven by a mix of paid ads, social media, traditional marketing, e-mail marketing and SEO. 

SEO often drives a huge chunk of the opportunity for growth because a majority of people searching the web go to Google, so, being present in Google’s AI overviews, sponsored results and traditional SERPS is absolutely key for maximising growth.

SEO offers compounding growth opportunities where the net cost per acquisition per client or net cost per sale falls and often becomes one of the highest value channels (lowest cost for highest return) - but, this can and does take time - and this is what separates a good SEO agency from a bad one.
