eXtraSearch Staff
Any company is only as good as its staff...
We invest in people and systems, not offices or buildings. Staff training is important, and also keeping up to date with latest search techniques, and sharing in house research. Our success in search is the result of working on the basis of our ongoing research work, not waiting for the previous six months best practice to be published on Internet forums.

Offshore?
Unlike most SEO agencies, 100% of our English language work is carried out within the UK.This will carry on as long as our research shows that low grade link building (which Google dislikes) is not an effective SEO policy, but an unnecessary cost.
Some work in other languages is carried out in other countries by natural language speakers.
