Impress with WordPress SEO
With its flexibility and extensive plugin ecosystem, WordPress is a leading choice for businesses, but its default SEO settings aren’t always optimised for performance. Common WordPress SEO issues include slow page speeds, duplicate content, indexing errors, and bloated code from excessive plugins, all of which can prevent your site from ranking effectively.
At SIXGUN, we take a technical, content-driven, and strategic approach to WordPress SEO. We optimise your website’s structure, metadata, page load speed, and content strategy, ensuring search engines can properly index your site while delivering a seamless experience for visitors. Whether you use Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or a custom-built WordPress setup, we refine every aspect to improve your site’s visibility and engagement.
We are an SEO agency with WordPress at our core
WordPress SEO is more than just installing a plugin—it requires technical adjustments, strategic content development, and ongoing optimisation to stay ahead of the competition.
- Site structure and navigation improvements – Optimising URL hierarchies, internal linking, and page depth to improve crawlability and rankings.
- Speed and performance enhancements – Implementing caching, lazy loading, script minification, and image compression to improve load times.
- Advanced keyword optimisation – Crafting high-quality, intent-driven content that attracts visitors and improves engagement.
- Technical SEO fixes – Enhancing XML sitemaps, structured data, indexability, and mobile responsiveness for search success.
We help WordPress sites rank and perform better
WordPress sites are highly customisable, but many themes and plugins introduce SEO challenges that require expert refinement. Our team ensures that your website is optimised for both search engines and users, balancing performance, usability, and search visibility.
A common issue with WordPress SEO is theme bloat, where excessive code from third-party themes slows down page speed and creates indexing challenges.
We audit your website’s core structure, remove unnecessary scripts, and refine CSS and JavaScript execution, ensuring a streamlined, fast-loading experience that Google rewards.
Expert SEO WordPress strategies
A WordPress website’s potential is only as strong as its SEO strategy. Our approach ensures that your site is well-structured, fast-loading, and delivering valuable content that ranks and converts.
Fixing common WordPress SEO issues
Many WordPress sites face crawl errors, duplicate content, and slow loading times due to poor configuration. We diagnose and resolve these issues, ensuring a clean and efficient site structure.
Advanced keyword targeting and content strategy
We develop SEO-driven content plans, ensuring that your pages, blogs, and landing pages target high-converting search queries.
Plugin and theme optimisation
Not all themes and plugins are SEO-friendly. We optimise page speed, structured data, and technical elements to reduce unnecessary load times. Another challenge is plugin overload—while tools like Yoast, Rank Math, and All in One SEO provide valuable guidance, over-reliance on plugins can create conflicts, slow performance, and limit customisation. We optimise plugin usage, reduce unnecessary dependencies, and implement direct code enhancements where needed to improve rankings and efficiency.
SEO for WordPress eCommerce (WooCommerce)
WooCommerce is a powerful eCommerce tool, but it requires specific SEO enhancements to compete in search results. We optimise product pages, category structures, and schema markup to increase organic sales.
