PPC, SEO & GEO Whitstable

Whitstable SEO and ads that fill tables in every season

In August, it can feel like customers find you without trying. In February, it’s a different story. The businesses that do well in Whitstable all year are the ones that keep appearing when people search, whether that’s a visitor planning a weekend or a local looking for somewhere to eat on a Tuesday.

We look after SEO, Google and Meta advertising and AI search optimisation for Whitstable businesses. You’ll get plain-English reports and regular catch-ups, in person in Whitstable or at our office, or by video call if that’s easier. Our search and advertising services:

Local SEO

Google Business Profile, reviews, photos and listings optimised so you appear in local and map results.

On-Page SEO

Clearer page titles, content and structure so search engines understand what you offer.

Google Ads Management

Search campaigns focused on people ready to book, buy or visit.

Meta Ads Management

Facebook and Instagram ads for events, offers and seasonal promotions.

Remarketing Campaigns

Bringing back people who looked at your menu or rooms but didn't book.

Keyword and Audience Research

Finding what visitors and locals search for, and when.

Landing Pages

Dedicated pages for campaigns, events or offers, designed by our web team.

Tracking bookings, calls, orders and directions requests.

Reporting & Optimisation

Our approach to search marketing in Whitstable

We plan Whitstable campaigns around the calendar. That means targeting visitors in the months before and during peak season, then shifting focus to locals, regulars and special occasions when the town is quieter. Before we spend anything, we audit your website, Google profile and reviews, because those are often the cheapest wins. We then build a plan with clear goals, set up tracking so every booking or call can be traced, and manage campaigns week by week. We review results with you regularly, coming to Whitstable or meeting at our Maidstone office, with a video call as an alternative in the busiest weeks.

1. Review
We audit your site, search presence, reviews and any existing ads.

2. Strategy
Agreed goals, audiences, keywords, budgets and seasonal timings.

3. Setup
Technical fixes, content updates, tracking and campaign builds.

4. Management
Ongoing optimisation of bids, ads and content.

5. Reporting
Clear monthly reports and a call to plan what’s next.

We manage search and ads for Whitstable businesses and for clients across Kent and the UK. Call us on 01622 470474 or get a free quote.

We worked with Andy and the team at Dope Studio to produce a series of videos for a Netflix advertising campaign, and we couldn’t fault them. Their pricing was very competitive compared to other agencies we considered, without compromising on the quality of service or the final product. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend them and look forward to working together again in the future.

I contacted dopestudio to develop my company website. They were really helpful, listened to my design brief and then guided me through the process from drafting, proof reading, configuring and finally publishing. I am really happy with the end result; from a client’s perspective, it was really easy to communicate my ideas across and their design feedback was very much appreciated – it’s always useful to get someone else’s view on things. I would definitely recommend them to anyone else who needs a website, without hesitation.
