Cairns, Far North Queensland
Straight answers about SEO and Google Ads.
I am Adam Guerin, an independent SEO and Google Ads consultant in Cairns. I work with small and medium businesses across Far North Queensland and regional Australia, I take one client per industry, and I do the work myself.
Should I start with SEO or Google Ads?
It depends on when you need the work to pay off. Ads can put you in front of people searching this week, and you stop showing the day the budget stops1. SEO takes months to move, then keeps working long after the effort that built it.
In a regional market the numbers are smaller than most advice assumes. The right start is usually a modest version of one of them, sized to what your market can actually return2 3.

What I do
Three ways to work together.
SEO Consultancy
An audit, a second opinion, or training, done once and handed over.
PricingSEO Campaigns
Ongoing search work aimed at rankings, traffic and enquiries. It compounds over months.
PricingGoogle Ads Management
Paid search managed properly, so the budget goes on clicks that can actually convert.

Why it works this way
How I work.
Every client deals with me, from the first look at their search data to the last word on their site. That caps how many businesses I can take on, and it's why the work holds up.
Nothing goes live on your site until you've read it. Content written without the owner is where most SEO money goes to waste, and on a service page it can put words in your mouth.
There's no minimum term, and leaving doesn't cost anything.
