Frequently Asked Questions

Typically, you’ll start seeing improvements in search rankings within 2-3 months, with significant results appearing after 4-6 months. SEO for fitness businesses is a long-term investment, but the results are sustainable and compound over time. Gyms often show faster results in local searches due to geographic targeting, and seasonal peaks like January can accelerate traffic growth when fitness searches surge dramatically.

Local SEO focuses on optimising for location-based searches like “gym near me” or “fitness center in [area]”, whilst general SEO targets broader industry terms. For gyms, we combine both approaches – optimising for your services whilst ensuring you appear prominently in local search results across your service areas. Most fitness facilities benefit significantly from local SEO as members typically search for nearby workout options.

Whilst we can’t guarantee specific rankings (no legitimate SEO company can), we have a proven track record of achieving first-page results for 87% of our gym clients within 6 months. We focus on sustainable, long-term growth rather than quick fixes that violate search engine guidelines and could harm your business’s reputation. Our data-driven approach and industry expertise maximise your chances of ranking success.

We track comprehensive metrics including search rankings, organic traffic growth, membership enquiry generation, phone calls, class bookings, trial sign-ups, and ultimately, revenue impact from SEO efforts. Monthly reports demonstrate clear progress against your business objectives, focusing on meaningful performance indicators like qualified leads and membership conversions rather than vanity metrics that don’t drive business growth.

After your minimum 3-month contract period, you can cancel with 30 days’ notice. However, we’re confident in our fitness SEO results – over 91% of gym clients continue working with us beyond their initial contract term due to the positive return on investment and sustained growth they experience in member acquisition and retention throughout the year.
