General & Fit
We plan topics, angles, guides, pages and CTAs around what the searcher wants to do next.
The goal is content that matches intent and moves readers towards action.
There isn’t a niche we haven’t encountered.
We mainly support SaaS, software, ecommerce, fintech, and B2B brands. We get up to speed quickly through thorough, independent research, SME input, and competitor analysis.
Yes, absolutely.
Yes. We can support strategy, briefs, writing, editing, or QA around your existing workflow. We fit seamlessly into the tools and processes your team already uses.
Services & Scope
A typical retainer includes a strategy, keyword research, topical maps, content briefs, and SEO content production. We also handle optimisation, reporting, and can add programmatic SEO or linkable assets.
However, each retainer is customised to your needs, so don’t feel you have to be confined to a box.
Our primarly link building strategy comes through digital PR and linkable assets designed to earn coverage naturally.
We don’t run paid link schemes, PBNs, or low-quality outreach.
Absolutely, and it’s one of the most important parts of SEO for many businesses.
We plan international SEO structures including IA, hreflang, and localisation strategy. Translation can be handled by your team or ours.
Yes. For studies, tools, or interactive assets we scope UX, design, and front-end support where needed.
Process & Timelines
It starts with a 20-minute discovery call to understand your goals, current SEO performance, and whether our services are the right fit.
If we move forward, onboarding includes access to key platforms (Google Search Console and Google Analytics), positioning documents, ICP details, and a 60–90 minute kickoff session to align on priorities and workflow.
Within 10 business days, we deliver a 90-day SEO content roadmap outlining topics, opportunities, and the first phase of work.
Briefs are typically delivered within the first 1–2 weeks of a project or content cycle. Once a brief is approved, first drafts usually follow within 5–10 business days, depending on complexity and scope. After edits and approvals, content can be published shortly after.
Each deliverable includes two editorial revision rounds to ensure accuracy, alignment, and quality. If additional revisions or deeper rewrites are needed, these can be scoped as part of the ongoing work.
We typically need one primary decision-maker for approvals, occasional SME input for specialist topics, and feedback on our content docs.
Beyond that, we handle planning, scheduling, production, and reporting to keep the process simple for your team.
Deliverables & Quality
Our team of specialist writers carefully write and optimise all content with intent — handling everything from structure and content to keyword optimisation and design.
We brief tightly, cite sources, and fact-check claims, giving you peace of mind that our content not only fits your goals, but does what it’s supposed to do — convert.
We see AI as a tool that helps us work smarter, not replace human expertise. It’s used to accelerate research, identify entity gaps, and support QA, while human editors handle the writing, voice, and final accuracy.
Yes, QueryQuill can handle content uploads if you wish. We deliver everything from internal linking, CMS formatting, schema markup, images and metadata.
If you prefer, we can deliver content as documents for you to upload at your leisure.
We build content around credible sources, expert insight, and clear attribution to demonstrate experience and authority. Research includes industry reports, trusted publications, and SME input where needed.
Every piece goes through editorial QA for factual accuracy, entity coverage, internal linking, and search intent alignment. The result is content that’s trustworthy for readers and structured to meet modern SEO best practices.
Pricing & Terms
Yes, absolutely. We can help you launch smaller-scale projects at a manageable price point, so you can see what’s possible.
Our payment terms are as follows:
– Monthly invoicing with clear, predictable pricing
– Net 14 payment terms
– 30 days’ notice to pause or cancel
– Quarterly prepay available with ~10% discount
If this doesn’t suit your business needs, raise it in our 20 minute fit call – we can be accommodating where possible.
On the off chance we need more resource to handle your output, QueryQuill has a bank of professionals on-hand to guarantee delivery
30-day notice to pause or cancel. We wrap open deliverables and hand over docs and data cleanly.
Results & Measurement
You can expect to see your first uplift in traffic, conversions and site ranking within 4-8 weeks of publishing. Compounding gains can be seen after 3-6 months, depending on your domain strength and campaign scope.
QueryQuill only work in absolutes.
Our impact is only measured by leading indicators (this being your SERP rankings, CTR and traffic) and lag indicators (sign-ups, leads and conversions).
We also measure our success against our pre-agreed KPIs to make sure you’re getting real value for your money.
With decades of combined SEO and content experience, we’ve seen every kind of ranking fluctuation. When performance dips, we investigate intent drift, technical issues, algorithm changes, and competitive movement to identify the cause.
From there, we adjust the strategy — refreshing content, improving internal linking, strengthening entity coverage, or expanding the page — to regain momentum and align with how search results are evolving
High-quality, intent-matched content can continue performing for a long time, especially when it earns authority and links. However, search results evolve as competitors publish new content and Google updates how it evaluates trustworthy pages.
Without periodic updates, optimisation, and maintenance, rankings can gradually decline over time. Regular refreshes help keep content aligned with search intent, accuracy standards, and Google’s expectations for reliable information.
Technical, Legal & Security
We are predominantly a WordPress content and asset building company.
However, we can accommodate Shopify. We’ll adapt to your publishing workflow and permissions.
Yes—schema recommendations/markup, media optimisation, internal links, and on-page hygiene.
We flag Core Web Vitals issues for your devs or ours, depending on the agreed workflow.
Yes. Standard NDAs are fine. We can sign a GDPR DPA when required and respect least-privilege access.
You do. All deliverables, templates, and analysis produced under the engagement are your IP.
