Founder & principal · United Kingdom · Hands-on

I build the website and rank it. From a UK desk.

I am Sal, founder and principal of Consent Leads, a UK web design and local SEO agency. We build a fast, conversion-focused website, then run the SEO so UK businesses get found by the customers already searching for them. I do the work end to end. The person you speak to is the person who does it.

What I do right now

I run Consent Leads, a UK web design and local SEO agency. We build the website and we rank it: a fast, conversion-focused site, then local SEO so the business gets found by the customers already searching. The flagship is local SEO, from £350 a month, monthly rolling, no contracts. We also run enterprise SEO for larger brands, and offer reply and booking systems and one-off automation builds as supporting services. Senior-led and boutique. The work is done by hand, not handed off.

The site is at consentleads.uk. The live demo is at demo.consentleads.uk - message it the way a real customer would and watch a reply system answer in real time.

How I operate

  • The person you speak to is the person who does it. Senior-led, hands-on, end to end. No account managers, no handoffs.
  • Build it right, then rank it. A fast, conversion-focused site is the foundation. The SEO compounds on top of it.
  • Outcomes, not activity. We are paid for the customers you get found by, not for hours logged. Monthly rolling, no contracts.
  • Honest before impressive. One documented case study, real surfaces, no invented numbers. Receipts beat narrative.
  • ASCII-only copy. No em-dashes, no ellipsis, no buzzwords. Reads like a human, because one writes it.
  • Boring tech where it counts, the right tool where it pays. Lean infrastructure that lets us build fast and keep client costs sane.

What I am open to

I am not actively looking for any of these, but the door is open if any of them are a fit.

  • New clients
    UK businesses that want to get found. The day job: a fast website built and ranked, or local SEO that brings in the customers already searching. Flagship local SEO from £350 a month, monthly rolling, no contracts.
  • Engineering
    Senior IC / staff engineering roles at AI-first companies. Especially developer-tools or anything where full-stack shipping speed matters more than process. UK timezone preferred.
  • Investment
    Angel or pre-seed cheques into Consent Leads. Looking for operator-investors who have run a service business or agency before, not pure financial cheques.
  • Advisory
    Advisory work for other UK businesses and agencies. Particularly around web build, local and enterprise SEO, and the infrastructure that makes a lean operation ship fast.
  • Press / pod
    Interviews, podcasts, build-in-public spotlights. Happy to talk about building and ranking sites for UK businesses, the agency stack, or running senior-led delivery hands-on.
