Content marketing for schools, universities and training providers

Parents and students search courses, fees, admissions and outcomes, and most institution sites bury all four. We build course and admissions pages that rank, guides that answer the questions before the open day, and local pages for each campus.

Case study: Propsult Realty: a Lagos estate agency gained 150 per cent more organic traffic and 60 per cent more qualified leads.

The three things content for a school or training provider has to get right

In the order students and parents meet them.

One page per course

Fees, dates, entry, outcomes and how to apply, written for the terms people search.

Answer the admissions questions

Guides on applying, funding, requirements and what happens next.

Show the outcomes

Alumni stories and outcome data on pages that rank for the career terms.

Pages and content we produce for schools, universities and training providers

Fees, dates, entry requirements, outcomes, apply.

 

How to apply, funding, deadlines, documents.

One per campus, with local SEO.

Where graduates went, with numbers.

What a subject involves and where it leads, which rank for the broad terms.

 

Published early, with schema.

Details that matter in this industry

Education search is seasonal and specific: “nursing course fees in Lagos” in one month, “how to apply for a bursary” in another. The calendar follows the admissions cycle, and course pages are refreshed before each intake with the new fees and dates.

Foundation fits most schools and training providers: course pages fixed, four guides a month, a listing per campus. Growth adds links from education press and the volume of subject guides a university needs.

What content and SEO for a school or training provider costs

The retainer that usually fits is Foundation, which runs $1,500 to $2,500 a month for clients invoiced in dollars. Where you land inside that depends on how much has to be written each month, whether links are part of it and how much technical work the site needs first; the pricing page sets out all five. Nigerian clients are priced in naira on a separate local list, not a conversion, and we give you that list on the call. A standalone audit and a content strategy are also sold as fixed projects, each credited against a retainer started within 60 days.

Retainer Price Minimum Terms Includes
Foundation
$1,500 to $2,500 a month
One-month minimum, then month to month
4 articles a month, 1,500 words each; technical fixes and on-page work

Questions schools, universities and training providers ask

For the specific course and location, yes. Portals list; a real course page with fees, dates and outcomes ranks and enrols.

Applications and enquiries by page from your forms, in the monthly report.

Yes, with subject guides and comparison pages, and technical SEO for the platform.

What to have ready for the first call

None of it has to be perfect; rough notes are enough to start, and the research in the first two weeks fills the gaps.

How it goes

First call to first report

Three stages, the same in every industry. Only the pages and the terms change.

01

Weeks 1 to 2

Discovery and strategy

A 30-minute call, then two weeks of research: your audience, the buying stages, competitors, and a keyword map of the terms worth ranking for. You approve the calendar before anything is written.

02

Month 1 onward

Execution

Technical fixes ship first, then the articles, pages and links on the calendar. You see every piece before it goes live, and the dashboard fills in from the first week.

03

Every Month

Measure and improve

A one-page report on the first business day of every month, with a call. What worked gets more of the budget; what did not gets dropped, in writing.

Content your travellers will find, and trust

We will show you the closest case study and propose the retainer that fits, with the goal and the month in writing.
