What we do for recruitment agencies
Google Ads for recruiters
When a business owner or HR manager types "engineering recruiter Hampshire" or "logistics recruitment agency Surrey," they are ready to brief someone. We build campaigns that put you in front of them at that moment, with tight sector and geographic targeting, and ad copy that speaks to clients, not candidates. No broad match waste, no generic keywords that attract entirely the wrong traffic.
Candidate-side search campaigns
If you have live roles to fill, we can run campaigns targeting active job seekers in your sector. Useful for hard-to-fill positions or when you need to build a pool quickly in a new geography or specialism.
Local SEO and sector authority
Organic rankings take time but they compound. We build the kind of content and location structure that earns you rankings for "specialist recruiter in [town]" and "[sector] recruitment agency [region]." Content that answers the questions hiring managers and candidates are actually searching for, built around your genuine areas of expertise.
Google Business Profile management
Most recruiters leave their GBP in a default state. A fully optimised profile with current service descriptions, regular posts, and a growing review count makes a real difference to how you appear in local search and how a prospective client sizes you up before they pick up the phone.
Review generation
In recruitment, reviews are complicated. Candidates who did not get placed, clients who had a poor experience with a previous hire, placements who went on to thrive. We help you put a system in place that captures the right reviews from the right people at the right moment, consistently, so your profile reflects the quality of work you actually do.
Website development
A recruitment website needs to do two jobs at once: convince clients you are the right agency to brief, and convince candidates you have access to good opportunities. We build fast, clearly structured WordPress sites that serve both audiences without muddling the message.

Why digital marketing matters specifically for recruitment agencies
The recruitment market has shifted structurally over the last decade in a way that makes online visibility more important than most agency owners realise.
The established routes to new client relationships, conference circuits, sector events, warm introductions through industry contacts, junior consultants calling every procurement manager in a sector, are still valid. But they have a ceiling. And when a key biller leaves, or a retained client pauses hiring because of headcount freezes, the gap in revenue is felt immediately because there is nothing inbound to cushion it.
Meanwhile, the way hiring managers find new agencies has changed. LinkedIn has made the cold connection message so ubiquitous that it barely registers. Job boards have become noisy. And when an internal HR team or a line manager wants to find a recruiter they have not used before, a high proportion of them start with a Google search. "Recruitment agency for [sector] in [location]." "Best IT recruiter in Hampshire." "Supply chain recruitment specialist Surrey."

Frequently asked questions
Yes, regularly. Hiring managers, particularly those looking for a specialist they haven't used before, routinely search for recruiters by sector and location. The agencies that show up in those searches get the call. The ones that don't, don't.
Both. The strategy differs slightly. Executive search and retained work tends to come from a smaller pool of senior decision-makers doing more deliberate research, so content authority and credibility signals matter more. Contingency recruitment for volume roles is closer to a direct response model where search visibility and fast response time matter most. We adapt the approach to where you sit in the market.
That depends on your immediate priority. Most agencies benefit from both, but the balance shifts. If you have a strong candidate pool and need more client briefs, we weight toward client-side. If you are building a new desk or entering a new sector and need candidate flow first, we can build that instead. Often we run both in parallel.
Job boards serve candidates who are actively searching. SEO and Google Ads serve clients who are looking to brief a recruiter, which is a different intent entirely and one that job boards do not address. They also serve candidates who search specifically for a specialist agency rather than browsing board listings. You are filling a gap the boards leave open.
We don't need client names or case study specifics to build effective content. We write around sectors, job functions, and the types of roles you fill. If you have case studies you are happy to share in broad terms, we can use them. If not, we build authority through sector insight content that demonstrates expertise without revealing confidential client information.
That is an advantage, not a limitation. Niche specificity makes it easier to build genuine authority in search because you are not competing across a broad keyword set. A recruiter focused on food manufacturing in the East Midlands faces very different competition from a London generalist. We target accordingly.
Google Ads can generate enquiries within the first two to three weeks of a campaign going live. SEO typically takes three to six months to build meaningful organic visibility, though the timeline depends on what exists already, how competitive your sector terms are, and how actively we are building content and links. We set realistic timescales at the start and report against them.
Yes. In most cases, job-function and sector-specific searches are more valuable anyway because they attract candidates and clients with a defined need rather than people browsing broadly. We build a keyword map specific to your specialisms and build content and page structure around it.
No. We take one recruitment agency per sector and location. If you cover engineering recruitment in Hampshire, we will not take on another engineering recruiter in Hampshire while we work with you.
Not necessarily. If your current site is technically sound, loads quickly, and has a structure we can work with, we can improve it rather than replacing it. If it is significantly out of date, slow, or built on a platform that creates problems for SEO, a rebuild is worth considering and we can discuss what that involves.
Yes. Review generation for recruitment agencies needs to be handled thoughtfully. We focus on timing and audience: placed candidates, satisfied clients, contractors with a positive experience. The system is designed to reach the right people at the right moment rather than blasting everyone who ever registered.
No long-term contracts. We work on a rolling monthly basis. If the work is not generating enquiries, you should be able to leave without penalty. We stay because the results justify it, not because of a clause in an agreement.
