01 / Why regional SEO needs a regional studio
South Wales is a patchwork of local markets, not one search term
South Wales has two million people spread across cities, valleys, market towns and coastal communities, and Google treats each of them as its own local search geography. Cardiff trades differently from Swansea. Newport behaves nothing like Cwmbran. Monmouthshire customers behave nothing like valleys customers. A site that tries to rank for 'South Wales [service]' with a single generic page rarely ranks well for any of them, and usually burns budget in the attempt.
Add to that the cross-border flows. A lot of South Wales businesses pick up custom from Bristol, Gloucestershire and the Forest of Dean. A lot of Newport and Cwmbran businesses serve buyers who commute across the Severn daily. Welsh-language search matters for some sectors in Swansea and Carmarthenshire and barely at all in Monmouthshire. Doing this properly means treating each area on its own terms, not averaging the region into a single page.
We build local SEO across South Wales with that reality in mind. Dedicated landing pages for the cities and towns you cover, Business Profile rewritten for each area's search habits, citations cleaned across UK and Wales-specific directories, bilingual setup where it pays off, and review generation that works by text after the job. All inside the monthly plan. And we are actually based here, which for regional SEO is not a small detail.
02 / What you get
Local SEO built for the full South Wales patchwork
Six things that actually move the map pack across CF, NP, SA and the cross-border BS postcodes.
01
Google Business Profile tuned for Welsh search habits
Profiles set up for the search behaviour of real South Wales customers. The right primary category, a full service list, bilingual descriptions where they help, and photos that fit the business rather than stock generics.
02
Map-pack coverage across the full region
Dedicated landing pages for the cities and towns you actually cover. Cardiff, Newport, Swansea, Cwmbran, Monmouth and the towns in between, each tuned for that area's search intent. Not one thin 'South Wales' page.
03
Citations across UK and Wales-specific directories
Yell, Thomson, Business News Wales, Visit Wales, Cardiff Life, Swansea Bay Business Life and local-authority directories all still carry weight. We audit every citation and fix inconsistent NAP data across English and bilingual listings.
04
Bilingual SEO where the numbers justify it
For some sectors, particularly those serving Welsh-speaking families in Swansea, Carmarthenshire and the Gwendraeth Valley, bilingual SEO is a genuine lever. For others the volumes are modest. We will flag it per sector rather than sell it as a bolt-on.
05
Schema tied to real South Wales geography
LocalBusiness and Service schema with the towns, wards and postcodes you actually cover. NP, CF, SA and the cross-border BS postcodes when your catchment runs into Bristol and Gloucestershire.
06
Reviews generated by a text after the job
A short follow-up message with a direct Google Profile link. Works equally well for a Cardiff dentist or a Valleys trade, and review velocity is one of the fastest levers for moving up the local map pack.
03 / City-level detail
Pick the city closest to your business
Each has its own competitive set, map-pack behaviour and seasonal quirks. Start with the one that matches your patch.

We map your rankings, Profile health and citation spread across the postcodes and towns that matter. Short report, no jargon.
Plan
We agree priority cities and towns. Cardiff competitive-set is different from Swansea, which is different again from Monmouthshire. We target the ones that move revenue first.
Ship
Landing pages, schema, Profile rework and citation fixes go live inside two weeks. Map pack watched weekly and iterated per area.
Prove
Your portal splits traffic by town and postcode, shows conversions by area and separates tourist and event traffic from resident demand.
