SEO is constantly evolving, and it’s imperative that website and digital business owners are at the forefront of keeping up with the latest news, watching out for algorithm updates, and generally keeping on top of the latest SEO news and strategies.
Understandably, many agency owners can often get stuck in the past, and when providing services for clients can easily fall behind the curve.
At Dispense Digital, our digital marketing services encompass the entire digital sphere, using only the very latest strategies and tactics inline with the best-practices of the time.
Whilst we’re Manchester-based, the remote model we operate means that we can jump onto projects as needed wherever clients may be, and we also have the flexible resources required to grow as your internal team does (we’re also 60% cheaper than most city centre agencies… but more on that later!).
From organic SEO assistance and completely managing your PPC strategy , to search consultancy for your businesses to transform your marketing strategy, we are no stranger to helping businesses across the North West and beyond to grow their rankings and to simply get seen online.

Why Choose Us?
Transparency is at the heart of what we do.
Our SEO strategies are completely unique in that our access to remote freelancers and agency professionals means that we will have experience in whatever your business area is. We are also proud to consistently provide bulletproof SEO strategies, including our immersion process which outlines organic competition, keyword forecasting, and technical updates to build an overall growth campaign.
Whether you’re looking for one-off SEO consulting services for your Manchester business, require a national campaign on a retainer basis, or are simply browsing digital marketing agencies in the North West and want to learn more, we’d love to talk.
Our approach to SEO is founded on transparent principles, meaning that if your website only requires 1 day’s worth of SEO work, that’s exactly what we will do. All strategies are discussed, approved, and implemented, with our clients given clear goals and KPI’s at every step of the way.
It also means that, through our team of experienced digital marketing professionals, we’ve been able to get every process from on-boarding clients to ongoing management down to a fine art.
From our Director, James: “I worked for multiple agencies in the Manchester area prior to starting Dispense Digital, and always had the same issues with the standard agency model; far too much time wasted on internal time leaving little time for clients. It isn’t even the fault of the agency, it’s the nature of having vast internal resource. Informational overload and too much time in meetings means little to no actual action (and results) for the client.
Utilising the remote agency model, I’ve been able to keep Dispense as a Manchester digital agency, but by having a team away from a standard office, we avoid useless meetings and sky-high office costs, meaning that all time is spent on clients, and prices don’t break the bank as we do not have fancy offers to pay rent for. This does however mean if you want an agency with a swanky office and daily meetings, we’re not the one for you.
Sound like information overload? Don’t worry. We’re straight-talking and easy to get along with, and we’d love to have a chat. Why not drop us a message at hello@dispensedigital.co.uk and get the conversation started.

The Depth of our SEO Services
There is a distinct different between each type of SEO service we offer. With our organic SEO services, many clients opt for a blend of several search disciplines, most notably technical monitoring and analytics reporting, local search development, and optimisation behind the scenes (such as Schema markup, page speed improvements, and conversion rate optimisation.
For small businesses, we offer local SEO packages which are split into 3 main areas; content, on-page SEO, and outreach. In the context of local SEO outreach refers to both white-hat citation building and genuine outreach to relevant sources. All content is crafted with local growth in mind, meaning our local business clients are able to effectively target several areas at once. And, when it comes to on-page SEO, our approach is simple… Complete coverage in all aspects of the search results page (most notably map results, rich cards, and fabled position zero). These are very similar to packages you may expect from a freelance seo specialist.
Many larger websites, eCommerce stores, and even other agencies come to our remote team for technical SEO assistance. All of our technical SEO services begin with an in-depth website audit, which allows us to prioritise tasks and get to work on a resolution. Along the way, page speed, bounce rates, and sessions are constantly monitored, alongside keyword growth tracking.
The aim of our technical SEO services is focused around one goal… To make every site as easy as possible for search engines to crawl. Our team also genuinely loves to technical SEO audits (meh, we know it’s odd), so let’s have a chat about the type of SEO package that is perfect for your business.

Straight-Talking Search Consultancy
If you’ve searched ‘Manchester SEO’ or are directly looking for an agency, then you’re probably on this page with several other tabs open to compare the digital offering across the great city of Manchester!
And, we don’t blame you. SEO, like anything, needs to be done right. It’s incredibly tempting to go with low-cost, local freelancers, or stretch your budget to trust larger network agencies who can deliver a digital strategy at a hefty cost… We’re incredibly to say that we sit in the middle. On average, we’re 60% cheaper than the larger agencies (we don’t have any ridiculous overheads or offices modelled on the latest Houzz styles), and have refined our SEO processes down to a science.
Utilising a network of tried and tested freelancers across the UK, we work remotely whilst maintaining the digital agency model. For example, a monthly SEO management service from ourselves would involve:
- Weekly competitor analysis and keyword research
- Regular copywriting and content gap analysis of competitors
- Consistent outreach (guest blogs, sponsored posts, PR and citations where relevant)
- Digital PR (press releases, outreach campaigns and targeted link building)
- Weekly technical SEO monitoring and consultancy
- Monthly data studio reports
- Google My Business management
- On-page SEO updates
The above is just an example of what a managed strategy would look like. In reality, all strategies are different and are crafted based on the needs of your website.
Let’s Talk Search.
From hiring a remote freelancer in the North West, to discovering an agency you can trust with retainer SEO services, we’re here to help.
We even offer hourly white-label rates for agencies who are short-staffed, or just need that extra boost on an SEO project.

Questions We’re Often Asked
How do you compete with other agencies if you’re not technically a bricks and mortar agency?
Dispense was born from disillusion with the standard agency model. For some businesses, they want to be pampered and fed fluff reports by large teams, and they’re not the ones for us. What we offer is hands-on digital marketing services, reducing jargon and ultimately getting the results that our clients rightfully expect to see. Anything else is just a distraction from the overall goal for ourselves and our clients.
I’ve been told I need to pay for a website audit – Is that really necessary?
If you have a very small site then a smaller audit is ideal, but not necessary for you. If it were up to us, you we would still run your site through our monitoring tools and have the team do an analysis, but if you’ve been told you need a website audit and have a small site then it might be best to focus your efforts on immediate fixes.
Websites such as eCommerce stores with often hundreds of thousands of URLs generally will greatly benefit from a website audit, as there are always issues to uncover. Either way, we’ve made our auditing process accessible to clients of all sizes, whether that’s a local SEO and Google My Business audit, or a larger technical process to outline and amend any issues plaguing your site. Drop us a message if that’s what you’re after.
What does a monthly SEO package look like with Dispense?
It’s that typical marketers answer, but it really does depend on your budget and the immediate issues or actions that will be of the greatest benefit for your online visibility. Whilst this means every strategy for our clients is different, there are some mainstays that make the pillars of an informed and actionable SEO strategy:
- Weekly audits & site monitoring
- Complete scope of link building & outreach
- Ongoing digital PR
- Copywriting site-wide
- Technical SEO development
