Boyd Digital has been a leading SEO agency for more than a decade. Formed by SEO specialists Colin Boyd & Grant Ruxton back in 2010, they quickly assembled, nurtured & grew arguably the largest team of dedicated SEO specialists in the United Kingdom. The extensive wealth of SEO knowledge & industry experience within the Boyd Digital team is core to our impressive resume and past track record within the search engine marketing world.
Grant Ruxton
Managing Director
Our Managing Director Grant Ruxton has an impressive SEO resume, as well as a strong background in the traditional and wider digital marketing landscapes, having successfully managed numerous omni channel campaigns for huge global brands. He knows what makes for excellent SEO strategies, client relations, communications and directs a team that reflects that in our Glasgow city-centre office.
Colin Boyd
Director
With nearly 2 decades of experience in search engine optimisation, our director Colin Boyd has worked with hundreds of blue-chip businesses across varying sectors, providing optimisations through the ages while consistently delivering impressive ROIs along the way. With his extensive experience, Grant and Colin have created an SEO agency that offers services that set us apart from the rest. This is due to our creative yet pragmatic approach to optimising websites, increasing online visibility, turning visitors into leads / sales and increasing profit margins for clients.
Gavin Boyd
Head of SEO
Gavin Boyd is the head of SEO at Boyd Digital having joined in 2011 and oversees day-to-day operations. Gavin offers a unique perspective in shaping bespoke SEO campaigns that garner results for small local businesses, large national corporations & huge international conglomerates alike.
With 15 years of hands-on experience, there is not a competitive niche or country Gavin hasn’t researched, analysed, strategized and executed a winning search engine optimisation strategy in.
Whether that be in hugely competitive sectors such as international law, global travel, multimillion pound ecommerce or local businesses with multi premises, Gavin and his team know how to win in every arena.
What Search Engine Optimisation Services Do We Offer?
We are a trusted SEO company, having successfully optimised thousands of websites. We have helped businesses of all sizes grow, from local SEO campaigns to international multilingual SEO for global businesses. We provide our clients with an impressive return on investment through our comprehensive and proven approach.
The Boyd Digital team is skilled and knowledgeable, covering all aspects of search engine optimisation. Including but not limited to in-depth research and analysis, technical SEO, optimised content creation, backlink profile development, analytics deep diving and conversion rate optimisation.
Not only can we provide you with game-changing SEO, we also offer digital marketing services such as PPC and social media marketing campaigns across platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok and LinkedIn.
Working with Boyd Digital can offer a multi-pronged approach to improving your digital marketing.
Work with us to take your business to the next level with more visibility, more leads, and more revenue.
Local, National, And International SEO
Our SEO campaigns can be suited to businesses seeking more visibility locally, nationally, or internationally. We have worked with businesses of all sizes seeking exposure to unique customer bases. We will provide a tailored approach that prioritises your goals and your clientele.
Local SEO Agency
If you run a local business you will want to catch the attention of those in and around your area, whether that’s a countryside town in Wales or the city of Singapore. We can help you do this with a local SEO campaign.
We have worked with and ranked hundreds of local businesses on Google’s first page for high-value keywords, in a wide variety of industries, located in some of the world’s largest and most competitive cities.
Think crème de la crème positioning in Google’s local pack results for terms such as hotels in London, serviced apartments Dubai, brand agencies in London, SEO company in Glasgow, lawyers in Washington, New York, Edinburgh, Dingwall, (Erm that’s correct,,, Dingwall!) or business water suppliers England, London, Timbuktu etc.
See it doesn’t matter if you are a global hotel chain, global law firm or local seo agency located in Glasgow. We know what it takes to get bricks and mortar businesses ranking in Google’s local pack results, wherever you are in the world, from right here in our agency headquarters in Glasgow, Scotland.
National SEO Agency
Businesses looking to rank nationally will be able to improve their online visibility with our comprehensive approach to national SEO.
We will be able to analyse competitors, how they rank and how to outrank them. We have run many highly successful national campaigns for national gems and household brands that operate in various industries such as trade, construction, utilities, travel, fashion and growing and emerging markets such as veganism, crypto, renewable energy and the electric vehicle industry. All clients who have seen a significant return on investment with a huge increase in organic visibility, leads, sales and revenue.
Again, think crème de la crème rankings in the most sought-after real estate plots in Google’s organic search landscape.
Think prime keywords like radiators, timber merchants near me, business water, vegan food, trade paint. Think ‘hotels in [every major city in the UK, Europe and beyond]’.
At a national level, we don’t just settle for owning Park Lane & Marlow Bone Street on the Monopoly board, we also want Bond St, Oxford St & Regent St. Hell, we will take Old Kent Road & Whitechapel Road if that’s all that’s left to own!!! And after that, we will move onto somebody else’s board and start to chip away at that search engine real estate. That’s the mindset we have here at Boyd Digital! There are no limits and no end to growth!
International SEO Agency
We run multi-lingual international SEO campaigns for businesses seeking to branch out across the world. We have successfully run huge international SEO campaigns for the likes of Groupon, Smartbox, Clarivate, Michelin, Frasers Hospitality just to name a few.
Each international campaign is unique in its own rite. Some campaigns involve gaining rankings in Google for the same keyword, in English, but in multiple English-speaking countries. Some projects involve achieving keyword rankings for high-value keywords in many countries in different languages.
Some international SEO projects involve unravelling complex issues that have arisen over time on large multilingual websites due to unsuspecting neglect. That’s why a large portion of our international SEO clients come to us subsequently to an issue being detected and not before. The challenges we have faced and the problems we have solved are what make Boyd Digital one of the best International SEO Agencies out there.
We can translate from and to most languages. We can write SEO-optimised content from scratch in any language using native speakers and writers. All this is achieved using our trusted pool of international content writers that are located the world over.
We have built long-term working relationships with the international SEO content writers and translators we work with. Most relationships have naturally developed over the years when one-time foreign students studying in Glasgow were looking for multilingual work to help with their finances during their study years.
Many of these international relationships continue today with an alumni-type vibe.
These relationships allow us to scale up fast, as and when large complex international SEO campaigns arise.
Out-with the foreign language aspect of international SEO and foreign language link acquisition campaigns, our team are experts in the international technical SEO front. We have a vast amount of experience in optimising complex multi-language websites using best practices with lang tagging, hreflang tagging, canonical tagging, geo-tagging, international tagging, XML site-maping Google search console tagging etc. We know how to rank websites in most languages and in most countries all over the world!
There is not an international SEO job too complex or too big for us here at Boyd Digital!
