The problems we fix

The rules keep changing.
Most brands don't keep up.

01
"We're not showing up in search anymore."
Google's algorithm keeps shifting. Competitors are investing. Your rankings have dropped and organic traffic with it — and nobody internally knows why or what to do about it.
How we fix it
Technical SEO + content strategy that diagnoses exactly why you've dropped and builds a clear path back to page one — and beyond it.
02
"Our ad spend isn't working hard enough."
You're putting real budget into ads but the returns don't stack up. Clicks aren't converting, CPAs are climbing, and you're not sure where the money is going.
How we fix it
Paid media audits and restructures that cut wasted spend, tighten targeting and build campaigns engineered around profit — not just traffic.
03
"AI search tools never mention our brand."
When potential customers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI Overview for a recommendation, your competitors come up. You don't. That's a visibility problem most brands haven't solved yet.
How we fix it
Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) positions your brand as a trusted source that AI tools cite and recommend — before your competitors figure out how.
04
"Our competitors are pulling ahead online."
You can see rivals gaining ground — in search, in ads, in share of voice. The gap is widening and the internal team doesn't have the bandwidth or specialist knowledge to close it.
How we fix it
Competitor analysis and channel strategy that maps exactly where they're winning, and builds an integrated plan to outperform them across every channel.

Client testimonials

What our
clients say.

Four clients. Four different reasons they'd recommend Base Digital. All saying the same thing — we show up, we deliver, and we care.

1 / 4
FINEPRINTCO
"Brandon and the team stand in a league of their own — incredibly attentive, genuinely caring, and going above and beyond. Working with them feels like collaborating with family, not a distant agency that's only focused on results."
Core Healthcare
"Complete confidence that our marketing portfolio is in excellent hands — working with Brandon and his team allows me to focus my attention on other critical areas of the business. Their expertise and reliability have been invaluable to our operations and growth."
13SICK National Home Doctor
"A valuable partner in our business — not just an agency. The Base Digital team are highly responsive, enthusiastic and are seen as a valuable partner. Their support spans SEO, Google Ads, social marketing campaigns, website strategy and ongoing support."
REIQ
"Base Digital saved our SEO — our organic traffic suffered after a website migration and Brandon & team were able to help us get back to where we had been before. As a client I always feel fully informed. I learned so much working with them on our SEM strategy over four years."
Why Base Digital
