The Content Problem

Why Your Content Strategy Isn't Working

UK marketing managers and founders face the same three challenges when it comes to content marketing.

📅

Inconsistent Publishing

You start strong, then client work takes over. Two weeks become two months. Google rewards consistency — and your competitors are showing up every week while your blog gathers dust.

💰

Expensive Agencies

UK content agencies charge £2,000–£5,000 per month for a handful of blog posts. In-house content managers cost £35K–£50K plus benefits. That's before you pay for writers, editors, and SEO tools.

🤖

Generic AI Slop

You tried ChatGPT. It produced surface-level content that sounds like everyone else's. No domain expertise, no unique data, no real point of view. Google's helpful content update penalises this — and readers bounce instantly.

What We Produce

Content That Works Across Every Channel

Every piece is keyword-researched, AI-drafted, human-edited, and SEO-optimised before you ever see it.

📝

SEO Blog Posts

Long-form, research-backed articles targeting high-intent keywords. Structured for featured snippets, with internal linking and EEAT signals built in.

📊

SEO Landing Pages

Service pages, pillar pages, and location pages designed to rank for commercial-intent searches. Schema markup, keyword optimisation, and conversion-focused CTAs.

📢

LinkedIn Content

Thought leadership posts, carousels, and articles that position your brand where your B2B buyers actually spend time. Written in your voice, not generic corporate-speak.

✉️

Email Sequences

Welcome series, nurture campaigns, and product announcement sequences. AI-personalised subject lines, human-edited body copy, tested against UK email benchmarks.

📱

Social Media Posts

Twitter/X threads, LinkedIn updates, and Instagram captions. Platform-optimised, on-brand, and scheduled to your publishing calendar. We handle the formatting too.

🧲

Lead Magnets

Ebooks, whitepapers, checklists, and templates that convert visitors into leads. Research-backed, professionally formatted, and designed to demonstrate your expertise.

Our Process

From Brief to Published — In 5 Days

AI speed meets human judgment. Every piece goes through five checkpoints before it reaches you.

01

Keyword Research

We identify high-opportunity keywords your competitors are ranking for but you're not. Search volume, intent, and difficulty mapped to your business goals.

02

AI Drafting

Multi-model AI system drafts the content — pulling from real search results, competitor analysis, and your brand guidelines. No hallucinated facts.

03

Human Editing

A real person reviews every word. We fix tone, add industry-specific insight, cut fluff, and ensure the content sounds like it was written by someone who knows your market.

04

SEO Optimisation

Title tags, meta descriptions, header hierarchy, internal links, schema markup — everything optimised for search. We check against top-10 SERP features for your target keywords.

05

Publish & Track

Content delivered to your CMS or Google Doc. We track rankings, clicks, and engagement for 30 days after publishing and optimise based on real data.

Quality Guarantee

The 80-Point CORE-EEAT Quality Gate

Before any piece leaves our studio, it passes through our quality framework — inspired by Google's EEAT guidelines but built for real results.

CORE-EEAT Framework

Every piece of content is scored across four dimensions. Nothing ships below 70/80.

📚

Factual Accuracy (20 pts)

Every statistic sourced. Every claim verified against primary sources. No AI hallucinations. We cross-reference competitor content to catch industry-specific inaccuracies.

🏆

Expertise (20 pts)

Content demonstrates real domain knowledge. We include specific examples, data points, and insights that generic AI generators miss. Your industry's language, not template-speak.

👑

Authority (20 pts)

Proper citations to authoritative sources. Author bios with credentials. Original research and unique perspectives that position you as the expert, not just another publisher.

🛡️

Trustworthiness (20 pts)

Transparent about what's AI-assisted. Clear publication dates. Contact information visible. No misleading claims, no fake reviews, no dark patterns. GDPR-compliant data handling.

FAQ

Common Questions About AI Content

Won't this sound like generic AI content?

No. This is the most common concern — and the exact reason we built the 80-point CORE-EEAT gate. Every piece goes through three stages: AI drafting (speed), human editing (voice + accuracy), and SEO optimisation (ranking). The AI generates a first draft in minutes; our editors spend hours refining voice, adding industry-specific knowledge, and removing anything that sounds templated. The result reads like a knowledgeable human wrote it — because a knowledgeable human edited it.

How do you handle industry-specific or technical topics?

We start with your input — your product knowledge, customer insights, and subject matter expertise. Our AI systems then research the competitive landscape (what's ranking, what's missing, what's being cited) before drafting. The human editor then applies domain context: industry terminology, regulatory considerations, market-specific data. For highly technical topics (legal, financial, medical), we flag the need for specialist review in advance and can work with your in-house experts.

What's your revision process?

Unlimited revisions, no questions asked. You receive the draft, you request changes, we implement them. Typically clients ask for minor tone adjustments or additional sections in the first month; by month two, our understanding of your voice means revisions drop to near zero. Turnaround on revisions is 24–48 hours.

How quickly will I see SEO results?

SEO is a long game — anyone promising first-page rankings in 30 days is lying. What we can promise: you'll have consistent, high-quality content publishing every week from day one. Most clients see meaningful organic traffic growth within 3–6 months of consistent publishing. We also optimise for immediate wins: featured snippets, People Also Ask boxes, and long-tail keywords that convert faster than competitive head terms.

Do you publish directly to our website?

Yes, if you want us to. We can publish to WordPress, Webflow, Ghost, or any CMS with API access. Alternatively, we deliver in Google Docs formatted and ready for your team to publish. Publishing includes internal linking, image alt text, category/tag assignment, and meta data — the full package, not just the body copy.

Is there a long-term contract?

No. Month-to-month, cancel with 30 days' notice. No termination fees, no minimum commitment beyond the first month. We keep clients because the content performs, not because they're locked in. That said, SEO content compounds — the longer you publish consistently, the better your results. We recommend a minimum 3-month commitment to see meaningful traffic growth.
