SEO Consultancy: Client Testimony
For hundreds of clients globally we’ve provided a mix of SEO consultancy, training & SEO webinar content. Here’s what our clients have said about our service/training.

Assertive provided outstanding SEO Support for our firm
We hired Assertive off the back of finding their content on LinkedIn & we have to say, we were very impressed with their seo support, so much so that we’ve since hired them as our agency. During the initial consult it was clear the guys knew their stuff when it came to technical SEO / international SEO. Subsequently we were able to fix a lot of issues during a number of consulting sessions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

SEO consultants (if they are good) are usually booked up and may not exhibit the flexibility a business needs. Because we have a pool of in-house SEOs, we can provide a dedicated consultancy experience but with flexibility on both timings & pricing.
Can we book single hour slots as we need them?
Yes, we can provide single hour extensions for SEO Support.
