Content That Actually RanksWritten for humans. Optimised for Google.
Which Describes You

Every SEO situation is different. Which is yours?

Three different starting points. Three different approaches. Find your scenario below — and see exactly what we'd do about it.

Scenario One

You have a website but nobody finds it on Google

The site looks good, but it's invisible in search. Competitors are on page one and you're on page four — or not appearing at all for the keywords your customers actually use.

What we do
Full SEO audit → on-page optimisation → technical fixes → content gap analysis → keyword-targeted content to close the ranking gap over 3–6 months.
Scenario Two

You run ads but want to reduce that dependency

Google Ads are working but cost-per-lead keeps rising. You know you're renting traffic. You want a strategy that builds long-term visibility so you can scale back ad spend without losing leads.

What we do
SEO + content strategy designed to replace paid traffic on your highest-cost keywords first. Build organic rankings in parallel so you can reduce ad spend as organic kicks in.
Scenario Three

You have an e-commerce store and product pages aren't ranking

Your products aren't showing up when people search for them. You're losing sales to competitors who rank for the exact product and category keywords your customers type every day.

What we do
E-commerce SEO: category page optimisation, product schema markup, internal link architecture, and content targeting buyer-intent keywords with clear purchase signals.
The Framework

Three pillars. One compounding result.

Most agencies do one. We treat all three as interdependent — because fixing one while ignoring the others leaves results on the table.

01
⚙️
Pillar One

Technical SEO

The foundation everything sits on. If Google can't properly crawl, render, and index your site, no amount of content or on-page work will move your rankings. We fix the infrastructure first.

  • Core Web Vitals — page speed, LCP, CLS, FID
  • Mobile performance and responsive audit
  • Crawlability — robots.txt, sitemap, indexation
  • Schema markup — business, product, article, FAQ
  • HTTPS, canonical tags, redirect chains
  • Site architecture and URL structure
  • Duplicate content identification and resolution
02
📄
Pillar Two

On-Page SEO

Every page is a ranking opportunity. We research the exact keywords your customers use, then optimise every element of your pages to align with how Google evaluates and ranks content.

  • Keyword research — search intent, volume, competition
  • Title tags and meta descriptions across all pages
  • Heading structure (H1–H4) and keyword placement
  • Internal linking architecture
  • Image alt text and file optimisation
  • Page-level content audit and improvement
  • Featured snippet and People Also Ask targeting
03
✍🏽
Pillar Three

Content Strategy

Content is what Google actually ranks. We research what your customers search at every stage of the buying journey, then create content that answers those questions — and ranks for them.

  • Content gap analysis vs competitors
  • Blog post strategy — topics, frequency, format
  • Landing page copywriting for target keywords
  • Service and location page optimisation
  • Pillar page and topic cluster architecture
  • Content calendar and editorial planning
  • Performance tracking — rankings, traffic, conversions

What Ranking Looks Like

Position one isn't luck. It's engineered.

🎯
Intent-matched keywords

We target the exact phrases your customers type at the moment they're ready to buy — matching page content precisely to that search intent.

📐
Content structured for Google

Heading hierarchy, word count, semantic keyword coverage, internal links, and schema — all aligned with what Google's algorithm uses to rank.

Technical signals that reinforce rankings

Fast load, clean mobile, no crawl errors, proper canonicals — the technical layer Google checks before it even evaluates your content quality.

🔁
Compounding — not one-time

A well-optimised page keeps ranking and improving over time. One piece of content done right can bring leads for years without additional spend.

What Clients Say

The proof is in the rankings

Before Qrafteq, our website had been live for two years and we'd never appeared on the first page of Google for anything. Six months in, we rank for eleven of our target keywords. Leads are coming in without paying for every click.

FK
Funmi K.
Law Firm · Victoria Island

I didn't understand why our site wasn't ranking until Qrafteq showed us the audit. Page speed issues, broken internal links, wrong meta tags on every page. They fixed it all and within three months we were on page one for our main service in Lagos.

BO
Babatunde O.
Architecture Studio · Ikoyi

We were spending ₦200k per month on Google Ads. Qrafteq's SEO retainer has been replacing that traffic keyword by keyword. We're now down to ₦80k in ads and total lead volume is actually higher. The maths is undeniable.

FAQs

Common questions about SEO in Nigeria

Most clients see measurable organic traffic improvements within 3–4 months. Competitive Lagos keywords typically require 6–9 months for consistent first-page rankings. Technical and on-page fixes often show results faster — sometimes within 4–6 weeks in Google Search Console.

SEO is a compounding investment. Clients who commit to 6–12 months consistently outperform those who stop after 3.

On-page SEO covers the content and visible elements — headings, meta titles, meta descriptions, keyword placement, and internal linking. Technical SEO covers how Google crawls and indexes your site — page speed, mobile performance, schema markup, site architecture, and canonical tags. Both matter. Fixing one without the other leaves significant ranking potential unrealised.

Yes. Ads stop the moment you stop paying. SEO builds permanent organic visibility that compounds over time. The ideal strategy: run both in parallel. Use Ads for immediate leads while SEO builds in the background. As organic rankings grow, reduce your reliance on paid spend — lowering cost-per-lead significantly over time.

We scope every project individually. Cost depends on site size, keyword competition, whether you need content creation, and how aggressively you want to grow. Foundation projects start from ₦120,000. Monthly retainers are scoped per client. We'll give you a clear quote after reviewing your site — usually within 48 hours of your first consultation.

We write it. Content creation is included in our SEO retainer — we research the topics, write to rank, and optimise every piece before publication. For the foundation project, we provide a content strategy roadmap with briefs your team can execute, or we can produce the content for you at an additional scope.

No — and any agency that does is not being honest. Google's algorithm is constantly updated and rankings depend on factors outside any agency's complete control. What we guarantee: a transparent, methodology-driven approach that follows Google's own best practices, monthly reporting so you always see what's moving, and honest communication about realistic timelines.

Yes. SEO work is entirely remote — we need website access and Google Search Console access, and everything else is handled via WhatsApp, email, and monthly video calls. We work with clients across Nigeria and in the diaspora targeting the Nigerian market.
