Working to improve your website presence…

Your Website Report

Hi Neil, … Hope all is well.. For this month I have carried out mostly ‘Behind The Scenes’ work for our ‘Moving Forward’ project, although you will see changes/updates to the main page for each website.

 

Below is a summary of works carried out and I have also attached copies of Audit Reports that I have generated and have been working from.. Not intended to blind you with science but more for reference, as I have been using these as a working/check sheet and gives you an indication of what has been carried out.

 

Quite a bit of ground work covered for this month.. I haven’t listed every item (although priority items are listed below and on the attached documents)

Title: Moving Forward project for: www.bpmgardenlandscapesanddesign.co.uk – Aiming to increase website traffic and enquiries. 

The main online marketing focus will be towards ‘Landscape Gardening’, with ‘Block Paving & Maintenance’ the secondary service.

With focus on promoting for mainly Brentwood and the following local areas:

  • Chelmsford
  • Essex
  • Ingatestone
  • Shenfield
  • (A12 Corridor)

Further below are explanations and details of each area that has been worked on.

A full AI Audit has been carried out on the following:

  1. https://bpmgardenlandscapesanddesign.co.uk/
  2. https://blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk/
  3. Google Business Profile.

In addition, I have set up an account for www.bpmgardenlandscapesanddesign.co.uk which includes a Site Audit & SEO optimisation tool – (www.ubersuggest.com) – A website ranking tool that provides Audit reports for ongoing improvements. Also tracks and analyses competition. (see item 5 below for further details)

In the meantime, I will also keep an eye out for the additional info from you as we have previously discussed.

  • Driveway/Patio installation
    • Preparing and laying lawns
    • Decking, Fencing
    • Preparing and building garden wooden structures.
  1. Patios
    If you could send me the names (and photos if you have them) of some recommended patio slabs.. I think it would be good to show examples of specific types of slabs, with descriptions. You can send me links to manufacturers/suppliers if that works.
  2. Lawns
    If you use or recommend a variety of grasses, perhaps we can expand the information on this page and include some close-up example photographs?
  3. Garden Structures
    If we can include some ‘Featured Garden Structure Projects’…
    If you have any specific ‘Garden Structure Projects’ in mind..
    • Highlight the customers requests for a particular garden space.
    • Explain the idea that BPM has presented
    • Show the finished project, detailing specific areas and the materials used.
    We may already show-case a project on the website but if we can utilise and expand on anything listed, that would be great.

June 2026

My next step will be looking at the new Google analytics platform and if the stats are ready, making a start on a website audit with regards to where we are situated in Google, where our competition is and the top priorities for improvements, focusing on your target areas. Particularly the A12 corridor; Chelmsford, Ingatestone, Brentwood and beyond..

I can certainly work on what we already have in place, in that regard and as soon as you have some fresh content, images etc. I will use that to build on moving forward..

 

 

…. End May/Begining June
I have started to prepare plans for moving forward with www.bpmgardenlandscapesanddesign.co.uk

In the first instance I have set up a new, updated Google Analytics account/profile..

This links directly into your website’s dashboard, giving us a snap-shot of:
‘Total Impressions’,
‘Total Clicks’,
‘Unique Visitors from search’,
‘How people are finding us’,

plus showing us the most popular pages/areas of the website.

The main criteria we will aim for is for visitor engagement and enquiries, either by contacting you directly and/or using the contact website contact forms.

I will add some further software to help improve our Google listings, plus track our competitors, aiming to beat their Google listings.

I will look at refreshing the ‘Home’ page and think it would be good to include some ‘working on-site photo’s.., Showing the use of professional plant – If you can send me (or point me to) anything you feel would be good to use..

Here is a list of items that we will initially need:

  1. On-site working photo’s
    If you can send me any photo’s you feel would highlight your professional working practices which utilise plant and machinery.
  2. Installation Procedures
    As you have mentioned, if you can send me a write-up of procedures you carry out for any specific types of work:
  • Driveway/Patio installation
    • Preparing and laying lawns
    • Decking, Fencing
    • Preparing and building garden wooden structures.
  1. Patios
    If you could send me the names (and photos if you have them) of some recommended patio slabs.. I think it would be good to show examples of specific types of slabs, with descriptions. You can send me links to manufacturers/suppliers if that works.
  2. Lawns
    If you use or recommend a variety of grasses, perhaps we can expand the information on this page and include some close-up example photographs?
  3. Garden Structures
    If we can include some ‘Featured Garden Structure Projects’…
    If you have any specific ‘Garden Structure Projects’ in mind..
    • Highlight the customers requests for a particular garden space.
    • Explain the idea that BPM has presented
    • Show the finished project, detailing specific areas and the materials used.
    We may already show-case a project on the website but if we can utilise and expand on anything listed, that would be great.

Hope the above makes sense.. If you would like me to add/include anything in particular, just let me know.

      Seeing as we have now come to the end of the summer season, just wondering if you have any thoughts and ideas for new plans moving into the new season?.. Any updates or new projects you would like to add/feature or perhaps any new sections to introduce to the website to show case up-coming garden area’s we could focus on? Maybe outdoor kitchen area’s, ‘specific garden spaces, such as pond area’s, water features, mind/well-being spaces etc?…

      Any thoughts, simply let me know.

      Many thanks.

      ———–

      December 2022

      As our recent discussion, here are some Ideas for moving forward with …

      – I would suggest a refresh of the front page..

      I think it would be good to amend the layout; Have the testimonials further towards the top. I will look at laying this out slightly differently, making it more eye-catching, keeping this section across the page but slightly less depth as current..

      Amend/refresh the order of content on the page.. – Introduction of ‘BPM Garden Landscapes & Design’ further towards the top.

      I will also look at highlighting your service areas, perhaps having each section in it’s own box with a button linking to examples;
      Garden Design • Maintenance • Garden Structures

      Also highlighting/featuring some of your recent projects –

      If you have any specific projects you would like me to give priority to, simply let me know.

      Simply let me know your thoughts?

      Many thanks,

      February 2021

      Hi Neil, …Hope all is well. – Below is your web site report page for: https://blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk

      A ‘Reviews’ section has now been added to the website, included your recent Google & Yell reviews

      Additional new post pages have also been added. – Created from your Facebook posts.

      All the website admin updates have been made as well as Google compatibility checks and resubmitting to Google.

      As discussed earlier, giving some thought to enhancing your Google listings for the ‘BPM Garden Landscaping’ side, I have  created a mock page with the idea of running a new, sister website – Although we have been making some headway with the BPM Landscaping rankings within Google for blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk, A dedicated site, optimised specifically for ‘Local Landscape Garden Design Company’ would certainly improve your rankings –

      Here is a draft home page example:
      https://blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk/bpm-landscapes-design-4

      I would suggest adding the following pages:
      • About
      • Garden Design – Some information on your garden landscape design service
      • Maintenance – Information on ongoing maintenance you offer
      • Garden Structures – Information on Fencing, Gates, Terraces, Lighting, Brickwork, etc.

      If you could let me know any amendments to the draft page, content amendments / additions etc.
      Plus the information / photo’s for the additional pages.

      Costwise, – Based on the above, I will aim to keep the set up around £100 plus VAT and replicate the ongoing monthly maintenance & promotion as per blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk @ £75.00 plus VAT per month – This will also include all ongoing hosting & e-mail forwarding costs. – I would also recommend registering a domain with the term ‘Landscape Garden Design’ included. i.e. bpmLandscapeGardenDesign.co.uk as this will help with the Google rankings..
      For ease of set up purposes, I can register this for you under your name and host it on my server. I can then set up all e-mail to be forwarded to the e-mail address of your choice.

      Any further thoughts, simply let me know.

      Many thanks

      Best regards,
      Gary

      Hi Neil, …Hope you are enjoying the Christmas break. – Below is your web site report page for: https://blockpavingmaintenance.co.uk
      This will give you an insight as to how your website will be working for you over the coming months. – All the data below which is taken from your Google Analytics and SM insights, is hopefully presented in such a way that you will find at a glance, all the valuable information that you need in a simple snap shot form.. Here is a summary of what you can find:

      • A list of all tasks carried out throughout the month that keeps your website’s functionality in check and compatible with Google’s requirements.
      • Any additional work completed that has been requested by yourself.
      • The total number of your website visitors (A visitor will be shown as a ‘session’ which means that Google will only record a visitor that has spent a certain amount of time browsing your website).
      • A record of ‘New Visitors’ along with ‘Returning Visitors’
      • A record of devices that people have viewed your website from ie ‘Desktop’, ‘Tablet’ & ‘Mobile’.
      • An overview of your website’s traffic for the month.
      • A list of your ‘Top Ten Pages’.
      • A monthly snap-shot of your website’s performance within Google.
      • A monthly snap-shot of your website’s listings within Google.
      • A snap-shot of your website’s security – We are continuously experiencing people attempting to hack our websites. There are a number of reasons why a website will be targeted. The main reason for a persisted attack is that a benefit can be gained by re-directing website traffic to other sources. Therefore, it is imperative that we have a good security firewall in place and continued monitoring is carried out.
      • A list of ‘Work Pending’, Work Carried Out’ & ‘Recommended Work’.
      • Examples of your Google Listings.
      • A list of your Google Reviews.
      • Your Google ‘Website Map’ – This is the link between your website & Google – A list of your website’s content, submitted to Google in a format that Google will accept and use and is updated/submitted on a regular basis.
      • A list of your Social Media sites – which should also be used/linked to your current website.
      • Your website’s Domain expiry date
      • Your hosting plan

      You will find the report covering data for the month of December and will continue to be implemented and updated over the coming months with the main emphasis to increase your Google rankings and website traffic across your priority key words. If you could please e-mail me a list of your priority key words/phrases so that I can include it here in the report and refer to it as we continue to work on the SEO for your website.
