The client
Agency Index is a curated platform helping brands discover the best digital marketing agencies in the UK. As the creators of the platform, our objective was to build a search-optimised experience that delivered instant value to users and search engines alike, without relying on paid traffic or brand awareness.
The challenge
With no existing domain authority and a brand-new website, we needed to hit the ground running.
- Build scalable landing pages for hundreds of keyword combinations
- Structure the site for crawlability and internal authority flow
- Optimise UX to encourage engagement and session depth
- Ensure fast load speeds, mobile-first design and schema markup
- Launch with strong SEO foundations and natural interlinking

We approached the project with a combined SEO and UX-first mindset. Every decision was guided by performance, user journey and content discoverability.
