WordPress & WooCommerce SEO · Hands-on in your dashboard
WordPress SEO Services for UK Businesses
Tania Search & Scale provides WordPress SEO services for UK businesses whose WordPress or WooCommerce site isn’t bringing in the traffic or enquiries it should. WordPress can rank very well, but it’s easy to get wrong: the wrong settings, too many plugins, a heavy theme or a page builder that slows every page.
You work directly with Tania, a WordPress SEO consultant with 4 years of hands-on experience, who works inside your dashboard rather than sending a report for someone else to action.

Common WordPress SEO Problems We Fix
| WordPress issue | What happens | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| “Discourage search engines” left on after launch | Google is asked not to index the site | Check settings and indexing in Search Console |
| Two SEO plugins active | Duplicate or conflicting titles, schema and sitemaps | Keep one, migrate settings safely |
| Tag and category archives | Dozens of thin, near-duplicate pages | Keep useful archives, noindex or remove the rest |
| Attachment pages on older sites | Every image gets its own thin URL | Redirect to the parent content or the file |
| Heavy themes and page builders | Slow loading and poor Core Web Vitals | Reduce unused scripts, optimise images, review hosting and caching |
| Plugin bloat | Slower pages and more security risk | Audit and remove unused plugins |
| Weak permalinks or changed URLs | Lost rankings and broken links | Clean URL structure with proper 301 redirects |
What Our WordPress SEO Optimisation Includes
WordPress SEO audit
settings, indexing, plugins, theme, speed, content and internal links.
Yoast SEO or Rank Math setup
we configure whichever you use (or recommend one), including titles, schema, sitemaps and archive settings. A plugin provides controls; the strategy decides how they're set.
WordPress site speed optimisation
image compression, caching, script clean-up and hosting advice, measured against Core Web Vitals, including Interaction to Next Paint (INP), which replaced First Input Delay in March 2024.
On-page and content work
page titles, headings, internal links and service pages that match real searches.
Structured data
Organization, LocalBusiness, Service and Product schema where relevant.
Safe implementation
changes tested on a staging copy where possible, with backups first.
This is WordPress SEO optimisation service work done inside your site, not a checklist.

WooCommerce SEO
WooCommerce SEO has its own issues: product category and tag archives, filter and sorting URLs, out-of-stock products, and plugin-heavy stores that load slowly. Our WooCommerce SEO services cover category and product page optimisation, controlling which filtered URLs Google crawls, Product schema and speed. For wider ecommerce strategy, see Ecommerce SEO.
Problems We Solve
Your site launched months ago
and barely appears in Google.
PageSpeed Insights shows red scores
on mobile.
You installed an SEO plugin, turned everything green
and nothing changed.
A redesign or theme change
dropped your traffic.
A developer built the site
but SEO was never part of the brief.
When a rebuild is better: if the theme is outdated, unsupported or extremely heavy, optimisation can cost more than a cleaner rebuild. We’ll tell you which is the better spend.

FAQs
WordPress SEO FAQs

I just need some WordPress SEO help — do you do small jobs?
Yes. WordPress SEO help can be a one-off fix, such as a plugin setup or speed clean-up. [Add: minimum job size]
