TESTIMONIALS
What our clients have to say
Caleb and Aidan from Studio Better have been absolutely fantastic to work with. As a small, independent business with both a brick and mortar store and an online shop, we honestly didn’t know where to start with SEO. What really stood out to us was how personable, patient, and genuinely invested they were in helping us understand the process. They’re incredibly organised, with clear systems in place, and they take the time to talk everything through in a way that actually makes sense. We always feel supported and never rushed, and they’re consistently available whenever we have questions. They’ve given us a clear plan forward and are always thinking ahead to what’s next, which gives us a lot of confidence. We truly couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Why should I work with studiobetter?
We operate differently than the typical agency model. Instead of being handed off to a junior account manager after signing, you work directly with the specialists executing your strategy. We prioritize actual business growth—revenue and leads—over simple metrics like "impressions" that don't always impact your bottom line.
What businesses does Studiobetter work with?
We partner with a diverse range of brands, from niche e-commerce stores to established professional service firms and global entities. We tend to be the best fit for businesses that are looking for a long-term search partner and value a strategy-heavy approach rather than a "set and forget" service.
What is a Search Specialist?
While a generalist marketer handles a bit of everything, a Search Specialist focuses purely on how people find things online. We balance the technical side of search engines with the psychological side of user intent. Our goal is to make sure your business is visible exactly when and where your customers are looking.
How does SEO, Google Ads and AI Search Work together?
We view these as a single ecosystem. Google Ads provides immediate visibility and data, which we use to inform our long-term SEO strategy. AI Search (like ChatGPT or Google’s AI Overviews) is the newest layer, ensuring your brand stays relevant as search evolves from keywords to conversations. Using them together ensures you're covered at every stage of the customer journey.
What would I Work with a small agency rather than a big agency?
It usually comes down to access and agility. In a smaller agency like ours, your budget goes toward senior-level expertise rather than overhead. You get a direct line to the person doing the work, which means faster communication, deeper brand knowledge, and a strategy that can pivot as quickly as your business does.
Is SEO really worth it anymore?
It is, but the "how" has changed. Traditional SEO focused on volume, whereas modern SEO focuses on intent and authority. While it’s a longer-term play than paid ads, it remains one of the most sustainable ways to build a brand and lower your customer acquisition costs over time.
How much does it cost?
Every business has different needs, so we don't offer one-size-fits-all packages. Our pricing is based on the complexity of your industry and the scope of work required to meet your goals. We provide transparent quotes after an initial discovery call so you know exactly what is required to see a return
My business can't afford the basic monthly retainer? Is there still a way to work with you?
Absolutely. While retainers allow for the most consistent growth, we also offer one-off projects, comprehensive audits, and strategy sessions. These are designed to help you get your foundations right or provide a roadmap that you can implement at your own pace.
How do you message success?
While we keep a close eye on rankings and traffic, we consider those "health indicators" rather than the end goal. True success is measured by business outcomes: qualified leads, increased sales, and a positive return on your marketing spend. We report on the numbers that actually help you make business decisions.
