Effective SEO needs three things working together: a technical audit that finds what blocks crawl and indexing, content that targets real user queries, and link-building from relevant sources. Every engagement starts with a gap analysis: where your site stands, what search volume exists in your segment, and what closing that gap actually requires. From that baseline, we build a prioritised action plan and work through it systematically.

Dortmund's harbour and rail connections make logistics one of its defining sectors. SEO here focuses on procurement-level queries with high commercial intent, specific to routes, capacities and service requirements.
The tech cluster around TU Dortmund has produced many software firms and consultancies. Organic search is often their primary growth channel, and content depth is what separates visible firms from invisible ones.
Dortmund's industrial heritage continues in specialist metals and processing firms. Buyers in this sector search with high specificity, and capturing those queries carries real commercial value.
City-centre shops and regional online retailers both compete hard in search. Product-level and category-level SEO directly affects revenue in this segment.
Clinics and health providers compete for patients searching locally. Accurate, structured content is essential for search visibility and for meeting the real information needs of people making health decisions.
Dortmund has a high concentration of insurance and financial businesses. SEO in this space requires compliance-aware content built to be accurate and durable, not just optimised for clicks.
Quite substantially. Logistics firms need to capture high-intent procurement queries covering routes, capacities and service terms, all of which carry strong buying signals and require detailed, specific content. IT companies compete on solution-oriented queries where content depth and domain authority carry more weight than volume alone. The keyword strategy, content format and link targets differ meaningfully between the two.
Not for SEO work. The discipline relies on crawl data, keyword research, content audits and backlink analysis, none of which requires physical presence in your city. TechNow works fully remotely from Berlin, with clear written updates and scheduled calls throughout the project.
For mid-competition keywords, ranking improvements typically become visible within three to five months, depending on your starting point and the current technical health of your site. Highly competitive segments, including finance and e-commerce, take longer. We set realistic expectations from the first analysis, based on your actual data.
