Site audit
We check indexing, speed, the theme, plugins and Search Console data, and see which pages already bring traffic and which ones get in the way.
SEO for WordPress sites: we fix the technical issues that themes and plugins create, build a structure around real queries and work on the pages that bring customers from Google.
WordPress is friendly to search engines, but only after it is set up. A heavy theme, dozens of plugins, tag archives and attachment pages produce a slow site full of duplicates. We build WordPress sites ourselves, so we know where these problems hide and how to fix them.
We check indexing, speed, the theme, plugins and Search Console data, and see which pages already bring traffic and which ones get in the way.
We remove unneeded plugins and scripts and set up caching, images and fonts. Heavy page builders are often the main reason a site is slow.
Tag, author and date archives, attachment pages, pagination, URL parameters. Only pages that answer a query stay in the index.
We configure Yoast, Rank Math or All in One SEO: title templates, sitemap, canonical tags, structured data. The plugin does not do this by itself.
Service and category pages for real queries, internal links, texts. For WooCommerce: categories, attributes, filters and product pages.
We show what was done during the month, how rankings, impressions and inquiries from search changed, and what we plan next.
Rankings, traffic and leads from Google.
Google plus visibility in AI assistants.
Stores, several languages or regions.
A separate budget for backlinks is needed for SEO — we calculate it after the audit.
A plugin gives you fields and settings. It does not decide what to write in them, which pages to create or what to keep out of the index.
SEO for a WordPress site starts from $500 per month. The amount depends on the size of the site, the state of the theme and plugins, and competition in your niche. A separate budget for backlinks is needed; we calculate it after the audit.
The minimum term is 6 months. Google re-evaluates a site gradually: first it indexes fixed and new pages, then changes their positions. Every month you receive a work report and see what has been done and how impressions and clicks are changing.
No. A plugin adds fields for titles, a sitemap and structured data. It does not decide which pages the site needs, does not write texts and does not make the theme faster. It is a tool, not SEO.
Yes. For a WooCommerce store we work on categories, attributes, filters, product pages and structured data for price and availability.
We do. Starosta Agency develops WordPress sites, so we make technical changes to the theme and settings ourselves, without a third-party developer.
Starosta Agency is based in Lviv, Ukraine. We work remotely: calls, email and monthly work reports are all in English. Search Console and analytics stay in your own accounts, so you see the same data we do.
WordPress SEO services cover the technical health, structure and content of a WordPress site so that it brings customers from Google. They suit service sites, corporate sites, blogs and WooCommerce stores.
After installation WordPress creates many service pages: tag and author archives, attachment pages, pagination. Some of them duplicate the main content. The work starts with leaving only useful pages in the index, then moves to structure and content.
In a store the main landing pages are categories. We build them around demand: by product type, brand and attributes. Filters are set up so that they produce landing pages instead of thousands of duplicates.
Speed depends on the theme, the number of plugins, images and hosting. A specialist who also develops on WordPress can fix these in the code instead of adding one more plugin on top.
