I’ve worked with Simon for about two years across various projects in the creative industry. His passion for his craft, his depth of knowledge and the level of detail he always aims for are what make him stand out. You can tell he genuinely cares about the work he produces. I can always count on him to meet the same high standards I hold myself to when we work with clients together. I look forward to working with him even more in the future!

Wow! Simon absolutely nailed my new website. Not only is it stunning, but he built it incredibly fast! The quality is awesome, and I love how easy it is to manage.
Simon also walked me through everything in a personalised tutorial (which he recorded for me - so helpful!). He's also a whiz with SEO and gave me amazing advice on how to get my site noticed. Highly recommended!

I have chatted to Simon several times now and have very recently completed his SEO Bootcamp.
I was in two minds about doing this initially simply due to my own total lack of understanding about SEO despite trying several avenues in the past to get to grips with this daunting subject.
Doing the bootcamp was 100% the right decision and so worthwhile. Not only does Simon deliver a wealth of information his delivery style is absolutely spot on. His passion for SEO and knowledge/experience are evident throughout.
I can't recommend Simon enough for both novice SEO "students " like myself as well as those who already have a very good grasp of it.

My experience working with Simon has been nothing short of totally amazing! I had several Really Big Problems with my websites and email that were impossible for me to figure out on my own, despite trying for a long time. Luckily I found Simon and he was able to sort it all out. My SEO is on track again, my websites are faster and more secure, and my email troubles are blissfully over! All of this makes a huge difference in my business, and I am so grateful for his work.

I booked 1-2-1 time with Simon to help me identifying my SEO strategy based on what I have, to see where can I improve and what I should not do. Needless to say money well spent!
Not only have a clear roadmap in my head, but also know exactly how to do it, and most importantly after 3 months it is now showing clearly in my rankings too.
Highly Recommended

Paul Hickey Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Simon’s course was something i was wanting to do much sooner and I wish I did, I have seen growth sooner than expected and I am constantly using the information I have learned as I expand my website.
I have since reached out to him to ask for other courses which, I will be signing up to.
I would definitely recommend Simon to anyone.

Simon's advice and guidance has been invaluable in helping me create my own SEO-driven content. His knowledge is extensive. He keeps up to speed with what works and what doesn't. And he embraced AI right from the start, knowing it would be a gamechanger. He's also a thoroughly nice guy and fun to work with.

Simon helped me greatly with my SEO. I am really a dummy when it comes to websites and SEO! He held my hand every single step and never got tired answering my questions. He didnt only help me for the specific work I hired him for but also to move my website to a new platform. He has done an amazing job and I cannot thank him enough.

I found Simon through a Facebook group for wedding photographers & everyone was raving about his SEO work. I'd struggled for what seems like an eternity to rank my site on page one for the search term 'Essex Wedding Photographer'. I'd only been able to get it as high as page two.
When Simon come onboard to help me, I wasn't expecting much in all honesty, but here I am now seeing with my own eyes that not just for the search term above, but many other related search terms I'm also hitting page 1.
My goal is to stay there and solidify my position and I know with Simon Hogben SEO on board I know that will be a reality!
Thank you so much Simon for all your hard work & I'll be recommending his services to pretty much everyone, in fact I already am!

Simon did an amazing job on my SEO and I would highly recommend him. He’s a very experienced and you can tell this from the quality of his work which has great attention to detail. He even recommended some things over and above what I needed to improve my reach further. The proof is in the pudding and Simon’s work on my website improved my Google position from 8 to 2 in just a couple of weeks. He also made other recommendations on how to stay at the top of google ranking for my keywords. He’s a professional and very easy to work with.

Where do I even begin with telling you how amazing Simon is with providing excellent support services. I first discovered him on a free training zoom call where I just knew I'd be mad not to invest in his SEO courses. He is so kind, friendly and easy to talk to. He is extremely knowledgeable in SEO and he always wants to help others achieve amazing results. The value for money is superb and in fact you always get extra with Simon as he's always online for your support. The results i have seen in my SEO have been incredible and i am ever so excited for the future knowing that Simon will be there for any support I may need. I am so glad to be working with Simon and look forward to the monthly support chats he provides which is invaluable for any business no matter what stage you're at. Invest in Simon Hogben SEO now :)

Wow!! I'm extremely happy with my decision to hire Simon for my SEO and content management. I was reluctant to move from my previous SEO manager as I didn't want the transition to have a negative impact on my rankings but I'm so grateful I did! It's been one of the best business decisions I've made.
Simon has been incredible. His communication has been second to none, his knowledge and skills are superb, he's very honest, and he is constantly looking for new ways to help improve my rankings, content, and business as a whole! The exact type of person I like to do business with. I can't recommend him highly enough.
Thanks so much Simon! I'm very grateful for you and your hard work!

I have completed one of Simon's SEO courses and I have to say it was fantastic! As someone who looks at the language of SEO completely baffled, I found it easy to follow and understandable, and with the help of Simon's course I have managed to get onto page 1 for 2 of my chosen keywords and I have progressed onto page 2 for my third. Would highly recommend!
