Our Process
Our proven process ensures your Houston business gets results
SEO Audit
We analyze your current website and search presence. What’s working? What’s broken? Where are the quick wins and longer-term opportunities? This audit provides a clear roadmap for improvement.
Technical Foundation
We fix technical issues that hurt your rankings: site speed, mobile experience, broken links, crawl errors, indexing problems. Search engines need to access and understand your site before they can rank it.
Keyword Strategy
We research what your target customers actually search for. Not just high-volume keywords, but the specific phrases that indicate purchase intent. We map these to pages on your site and identify content gaps.
Content Optimization
We optimize existing content and create new content targeting your strategic keywords. Title tags, meta descriptions, headers, body content. All written for both search engines and human readers.
Local SEO
For businesses, local visibility is critical. We optimize your Google Business Profile, build local citations, and create location-specific content. When someone searches “near me,” you show up.

Real Results for Local Businesses
The Challenge
Texana Global Energy had real credibility in the field and almost none in search. Their WordPress site loaded slowly, ran unreliably, and shipped with broken links, missing metadata, and no favicon. Buyers searching for industrial and energy services around Houston struggled to find them, and the ones who did lost confidence fast.
Our Solution
We rebuilt the site on stable infrastructure with clean metadata, a proper favicon, and a service-based structure search engines can actually read. Fragmented capability lists became organized pages for Industrial Services, ASME Fabrication, Inspection, NDT, and Safety, each written to match how prospects search. Faster load times reinforced the technical foundation.
The Results
Texana now presents a credible, fast platform when buyers arrive, built so industrial and energy searches around Houston can actually find them. Cleaner structure, metadata, and faster load times set the site up to rank, with priority service pages targeting page one for 8 local keywords and load time down to 1.8s. Search is built to feed sales conversations.
Common Questions
Everything you need to know about our search engine optimization services
How long does SEO take to work?
SEO is a long-term strategy. You typically see initial improvements in 3-4 months, with significant results in 6-12 months. The timeline depends on your starting point, competition, and how aggressively we pursue optimization. Unlike paid ads, SEO results compound and persist.
Do you guarantee first page rankings?
No one can honestly guarantee specific rankings. Search algorithms are complex and constantly changing. What we guarantee: proven strategies, transparent reporting, continuous optimization, and focus on traffic that actually generates business. We aim for results, not empty promises.
What makes local SEO different?
Local SEO focuses on appearing in location-based searches and Google Maps results. It includes Google Business Profile optimization, local citations, reviews strategy, and location-specific content. For businesses serving local customers, it’s essential.
Can you help if my website is on WordPress/Wix/Squarespace?
Yes. We work with any platform, though some are more SEO-friendly than others. We’ll audit your current setup and optimize within your platform’s capabilities. If your platform has significant limitations, we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What's the difference between SEO and GEO?
SEO optimizes for traditional search engines like Google. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) optimizes for AI tools like ChatGPT that recommend businesses. We offer both services because the way people find businesses is evolving.
