We don’t usually stop to shout about ourselves. Most days we’re too busy doing the work – fixing websites, building visibility and helping businesses get more enquiries.

Rank Kings started small, working with local businesses in Stockport and Manchester who needed SEO that actually delivered results, not just reports. From there, things moved quickly. Clients started recommending us, our own SEO began doing its job and before long, we were picking up work across the UK.

Today, we might work with a lot more businesses across the UK, but the way we operate hasn’t changed. We still focus on practical SEO that drives real growth. We don’t hide behind confusing metrics and pages of reports. We deliver what we say we will and customers love us for it.

That’s why this felt worth sharing.

In December 2025, Rank Kings was named SEO Agency Of The Year – Manchester & North West at the Prestige Awards, with the ceremony held in Leeds.

What makes this even better is how it happened. We didn’t push for votes or run a campaign. We were nominated by two separate customers, independently, because they felt the results we delivered were worth recognising.

Why this award actually means something

There are plenty of awards out there that exist mainly for marketing. This isn’t one of them.

The Prestige Awards focus on service quality, reputation and real performance, backed up by customer nominations and independent research. Winning SEO Agency Of The Year tells us we’re getting the fundamentals right and, more importantly, that our clients feel the benefit of the work.

Built locally. Grown the right way.

We’re proud of the fact that Rank Kings grew the same way we help our clients grow – through good work and visibility.

We didn’t start with a national footprint. We earned it.

Strong results for businesses in Stockport and Manchester led to referrals. Our own website began ranking. That brought enquiries from further afield. Now we have SEO clients across the UK, without ever losing the hands-on approach that got us here in the first place.

Why our SEO works

SEO only works when it’s done properly and consistently.

Our approach is simple and effective:

  • On-page SEO built around real search intent
  • Technical SEO that removes friction and allows your website to rank properly
  • Content written by people for people – we don’t just post whatever ChatGPT spits out like other agencies
  • Link building that strengthens authority naturally
  • Local and national SEO strategies that turn visibility into enquiries

We don’t chase shortcuts. We build systems that work over time. That’s why our clients stay with us and why we’ve built up plenty of 5-star reviews along the way.

A word from Chris Lenehan, Director

“We started out offering SEO and PPC in Stockport and Manchester. The growth since then has come naturally through results and word of mouth. To win an award like this off the back of customer nominations is incredibly rewarding and a real reflection of the trust our clients place in us.”

Thank you to the clients who nominated us

To the two customers who nominated us – thank you.

You didn’t just recognise the results. You recognised the way we work and that means a lot.
