Sunshine Coast Client Reviews

Our Happy Clients

I think you are a great presenter, and there is a need in the market, especially in the agency world, for agency owners to invest in facilitated team training rather than self-driven online training offered by platforms. This is great for team culture and better for professional development.

Chilli Marketing
We engaged Annabelle and Grace to provide SEO and digital marketing support from the commencement of our practice and have been very pleased with their work. They are reliable, deliver on their commitments, and communicate clearly and professionally. They have demonstrated a strong understanding of our business and have gone above and beyond in their support. We have enjoyed working with them and would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Annabelle has been wonderful to work with on our SEO and blog content. She has taken the time to really understand our business, our target market and the style and tone we want to present through our website and online presence. The blogs are SEO work she produces feel tailored to our business rather than generic content, which is something we really appreciate. She is always professional, creative and easy to communicate with, and the whole process has been smooth and enjoyable from the start.

SEO SErvices Plus More

Six services done properly, not ten done adequately.

They run as one strategy with one content plan underneath, so search, social and email pull in the same direction instead of three agencies invoicing separately.


01

SEO

Transactional keywords that move the pipeline, technical fixes that unblock them, and content built to earn rankings rather than fill a calendar. For businesses that live and die by the map pack, our local SEO Sunshine Coast service puts your Google Business Profile to work. No short-term tricks, no vanity metrics.


02

Getting your business cited in ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. Entity and schema work, source-worthy content, and tracking of where the AI answers are actually pointing buyers.


03

Planned against the same topic clusters as your search work, so the audience you build and the audience you rank for are the same people.


04

Email marketing

The channel that converts the traffic you already paid to earn. Lists, flows and campaigns written in your voice, measured on revenue.

04

Working alongside your SEO campaign. Get your brand in front of the right people when they are searching on Google or scrolling on social media


05

In-house SEO and digital marketing training for teams who'd rather build the capability than rent it. Good for culture, better for professional development.

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

Annabelle Cochrane

MANAGING DIRECTOR & SEO SPECIALIST

I founded ALC Consulting because most marketing agencies suck. I'd worked both agency-side and in-house, and the pattern was always the same: a salesperson closes the deal, then you're handed to a junior account manager relaying updates from a strategist you never actually speak to.

So ALC runs the other way. I'm the person who plans your strategy, does the work, and sits on the call when you have questions about it. Seven-plus years of hands-on search experience and a QUT qualification behind it — not a generalist account manager with a checklist.

INDUSTRIES

Sunshine Coast Businesses We work with.

Most of our clients are service businesses where one good enquiry pays for the month. The search behaviour differs by industry, so the strategy does too.

Trades & home services

Builders, electricians, plumbers, landscapers, roofers. Suburb-level local search and a Google Business Profile that actually earns the call.

Professional services

Legal, accounting, finance, real estate and consultancies. High-intent, high-value keywords and content that demonstrates genuine expertise.

Health & allied health

Clinics, dental, physio and specialists. Local visibility for new practices and treatment-level pages that answer real patient questions.

eCommerce

Product and category SEO, technical clean-up at scale, and email flows that convert the traffic you already earned.

Tourism & hospitality

Accommodation, venues and experiences. Seasonal demand, destination search and direct bookings over third-party platforms.

Not on the list?

If you sell a considered service and people search before they buy, the fundamentals hold. Worth a conversation either way.

Are We A Good Match?

ALC works best with businesses where search is worth getting right: each new client is worth a lot, customers compare options before they call, and the business needs senior direction rather than another pair of hands.

FAQs

The things people ask before starting.

Who actually does the work?

Every project is handled entirely in-house by our core team of senior strategists and developers. We never outsource your brand’s critical work to third parties, ensuring premium quality and seamless communication throughout.

While SEO is fundamentally a long-term investment, most clients begin to see measurable shifts in keyword rankings, search impressions, and organic traction within the first 60 to 90 days of implementing our strategy.

AI SEO leverages machine learning models to analyze competitor content gaps and optimize technical schemas rapidly. It is highly beneficial if you want to scale content generation and outpace competitors who are already using automated insights.

No. We believe in earning your partnership month-over-month. Our standard agreements operate on a flexible 30-day notice period, meaning you stay because you see continuous value and growth, not because of a restrictive contract.

While we call the Sunshine Coast home, we work with brands from Noosa to Caloundra, as well as Australia-wide.
