The SEO Works

The SEO Works is a search marketing agency headquartered in Sheffield, England, with further offices in London and Leeds. Founded in 2009, it has grown into a team of between 50 and 249 people and works with clients ranging from growing small businesses to national and enterprise brands, mainly in the UK and the United States.

The agency positions itself around integrated search, combining classic SEO with optimisation for AI-driven answers and large language model platforms. Its campaigns typically cover technical audits, on-page optimisation, content strategy, digital PR and link acquisition, all shaped by research into search demand, competitors and user intent. Paid search is a second pillar: the team runs Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, shopping campaigns and paid social, with a focus on conversion quality and return on ad spend.

For businesses looking for a link building partner in the UK, The SEO Works is a good fit when you want links tied to a wider search plan rather than bought in isolation. It is especially relevant for B2B, education, fintech, healthcare and legal brands, the sectors it lists as its main areas of experience, and for Shopify or WordPress sites that need technical and content work together.
