SEO in Finnish, by a native speaker

Your customers in Finland search in Finnish, and Google shows them Finnish pages. A translation gets you the words, not the searches.

Finnish keywords

Finnish nouns take 15 case endings and join into compounds, so one idea is searched in many forms. I find the forms your customers use, and the volume behind each.

Native Finnish content

I write your pages in Finnish myself, one search per page, so that they read naturally and answer what Finns ask.

Links from Finnish websites

Google trusts a site that other sites link to. Your links come from Finnish websites, in Finnish articles on your topic.

English for you

We talk in English: the free check, the monthly check-in meetings and every email. You always know what I am doing and why.

What does SEO include?

To get your site to the top positions in Google search results, these tasks are typically performed.

Competitor monitoring

How do your industry’s competitors currently appear on Google? What actions have they taken?

Comprehensive report on the top 10 competitors

Keyword research

Where do you currently show up in searches? What words do people use to find your services?

Comprehensive report on search terms

Technical SEO

Does your site work on all devices? Are there problems in the site’s code? How fast do pages load?

Content SEO

Is the site content formatted according to SEO best practices?

Even the best-optimized page won’t be visible if there are no external links pointing to it.

The monthly service pays off especially when the website is large (100+ pages), its content changes all the time, or your field has hard competition.

Why “coding”?

When I find a fault on your website, I don’t leave it in a report: I fix it myself, in the code too.

I have built hundreds of websites with WordPress. Coding them took me deep into the world of SEO.

Even the best ad campaign fails if the page it leads to doesn’t convert. That’s why I take care of SEO, your website and your advertising together.

Every month I spend the hours where they bring the most.

How the work goes

SEO starts with an analysis and fixes, and continues every month with new content and improvements.

  1. Discovery

    Let’s see how your site appears on Google now, how customers search for your products, and what your potential visibility is.

    We analyze the current visitors: where they come from and who they are.

    • Load speed: We test the site’s load speed with GTmetrix, the Google PageSpeed Tool, and Pingdom Tools. We fix performance issues if the site scores below 90/100.
    • Code errors: Is the site coded correctly? Is it loading any unnecessary or slow files? We fix any errors.
    • Meta data: Meta data gives Google extra information about a page—for example, the description. We make sure every page has its meta data in order.
  2. Keyword research

    How often is each search term used, and which keyword opportunities should we target?

  3. Planning

    A fix plan if the site has technical issues, recommendations for on-site changes (headings, meta data, site structure), and suggestions for ongoing SEO development based on the keyword research: which terms to create content for.

  4. Implementation

    The changes and new content are created based on the plan.

  5. Search engine optimization monitoring

    It’s important to monitor SEO. Often results show up several weeks or even months after actions are taken.

    Monitoring SEO is easiest with Google Search Console and a paid tool like Wincher.

    In the live dashboard you see how keyword visibility changes day by day, the search volume trends (how many searches per month), how competitors appear in search, and what percentage of the total search market you own (Share of voice).

    A one-time optimization can deliver results for years.
