SEO services for personal training brands

SEO audit and strategy
Is your website hitting its goals? Even minor errors can halt growth, but our experts isolate gaps and mistakes with an in-depth SEO audit. We also assess your competition and target audience, enabling us to develop a bespoke strategy that aligns with your long-term objectives.

Technical SEO
Technical SEO is the process of fine-tuning your personal trainer website and eliminating errors. Many brands focus on their on-page SEO and content strategy without realising how technical issues impact user experience. We optimize your platform for mobile devices, fix broken links, and perform regular crawls, ensuring nothing stands in your way.

On-page SEO
While technical SEO is behind the scenes, on-page SEO defines whether your website visitors have a positive user experience. From turning each meta description into an irresistible proposition to refining title tags and internal links, we ensure nothing stops you from converting visitors into paying clients.

Local SEO
Many people search for a personal trainer within their local area, which means you have an excellent opportunity to build a loyal client base. Appearing on local Google search results requires a targeted strategy, including local link building, obtaining citations and optimizing your Google Business Profile. We’ll track your growth and ensure you remain relevant in your locations.

Content marketing
Content marketing is at the heart of any successful SEO strategy. It helps you secure new clients and demonstrate your knowledge. However, most personal trainers struggle with content. Our SEO specialists and highly skilled writers work together, combining their skills to create high-quality content that establishes you as a thought leader.

Off-page SEO
It’s no secret that the fitness industry is competitive, but backlinks let the search engines know that your brand is reputable. Finding the right links can feel like an uphill struggle, but our specialists isolate authoritative websites and focus on quality, giving you ongoing growth. With a team of talented link-building gurus, we’ll make sure your personal training business meets its goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I handle my own SEO campaign?
SEO for personal trainers is an intensive process that requires constant monitoring and adaptation. From performing keyword research to writing content and assessing your growth on search engine results pages, managing a business and focusing on SEO can be challenging.
Working with Assertive means you won’t have to worry, as our experts will handle all aspects of the SEO campaign, including finding relevant keywords, building high-authority backlinks, and streamlining lead generation.
I'm already using paid advertising. Do I need SEO?
Paid advertising and search engine optimisation are effective digital marketing strategies, but each offers unique benefits. While PPC offers immediate results, it’s also expensive and typically used for new fitness brands when they launch or run promotions.
SEO for personal trainers is a long-term strategy that increases organic visibility and ensures ongoing website traffic. By combining SEO and PPC services, fitness professionals can achieve quicker wins and maximise their reach.
Do you guarantee top-ranking positions?
We don’t promise top-ranking positions with personal trainer SEO campaigns because your results depend on the competition and other factors. As a reputable SEO agency, we focus on securing more clients for your PT business and moving you towards your goals.
Any agency that promises you the first page of Google within a few months is probably using black hat techniques, which could cause reputational and financial damage to your brand. Witnessing results on search engines can take time, but once they appear, we can maintain them.
