SEO in Birmingham

Okay, I'll admit it. The state of the SEO industry in Birmingham at present is in pretty dire shape. Just by glancing through current salary levels for SEO jobs in the UK you can instantly see that the top agencies, clients and consultants are all based in London.

It grates me to say it because I love Birmingham and find that the majority of SEO consultants / agencies in London don't do or know much more than reputable Birmingham SEO companies. The main reason that I believe we're in such a poor state up here is that generally, businesses in London are far more web, marketing and yes, business savvy that companies from 'oop north' and therefore see the value in SEO which still stands for Sausage and Egg Omelet up here for most SME's.

That's not to say that all is lost for the SEO companies like ourselves from the midlands who have worked incredibly hard on results driven campaigns to impress their skeptical clients. A recent smattering of London clients have found us via the web and had enough courage and lack of north/south prejudice to become our clients. The results (needless to say or I wouldn't be writing this article) have meant serious value for money for these companies who now view us as the secret weapon in their marketing strategies.

The lesson? Sometimes companies from London can be so caught up with what's in the M25 that they lose out on the chance to work with genuine, talented, exceptional (and modest) people like ourselves (not to mention the chance to savor a decent pint of bitter when they pop up to visit). Choosing Search engine optimisation companies in Birmingham could be the smartest thing they've ever done!
