THE STUDIOHAWK DIFFERENCE

We have Google-y eyes for SEO

Founded by Harry Sanders in 2015, StudioHawk is a specialised agency dedicated to search engine optimisation. Our SEO services are responsive, ethical, authentic, and delivered by a genuinely passionate and diverse team of SEO specialists in Melbourne and London. We are experts in how SEO works. The journey of StudioHawk has been on the BBC World News, Forbes, SmartCompany, and dozens of other publications.
There’s a reason why we were named Semrush's agency of the year, as well as Optus Media Marketing and Advertising Business of the Year: it’s in our proven track record. StudioHawk clients reach their SEO goals and maintain an average of 300% ROI.

 

How? We use white hat SEO techniques to make sure your site succeeds and isn’t at risk from Google penalties. Over 300 campaigns, and never a single penalisation or manual action due to our work.

about charbel_steph
When we aren't doing SEO, we're contributing to the community through initiatives like the SEO Meetup which we help organise with over 2000 members, sit on the board of AWIA (Australian Web Industry Association) helping to regulate and oversee SEO as it matures as an industry.

 

We also created the industry’s leading SEO training platform, ‘Hawk Academy’ which helps educate people about SEO, raises the bar, and brings the best possible talent into the industry.

Rankings
With an optimised website, rankings are projected to improve. Our goal is to see your site on Google’s first page for all your targeted keywords so you can capture and convert targeted traffic into customers.

Traffic
Strong search engine rankings directs quality, targeted traffic to your site. When your website is found on Google by a user searching for targeted keywords, there’s a great chance this consumer is already interested in what your site has to offer.
web_traffic
Conversions
A conversion happens when a visitor to a website performs an action that helps you achieve a goal. Obviously, the more visitors a site has, the more opportunities it has to convert. Traffic from organic search is proven to be the easiest to convert compared to other traffic referral channels.
