Content and SEO for logistics, freight and delivery companies

Shippers search the service, the route and the price: “freight forwarding Lagos to London”, “last-mile delivery cost”. Most logistics sites describe capabilities in general. We build service and route pages that answer the search, guides that explain the process, and local pages for each depot.

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 logistics company has to get right


In the order shippers meet them.

One page per service and route

Freight, courier, warehousing, customs; and the lanes and cities you serve.

Explain the process and price

Guides on documents, timelines and costs that answer what every enquiry asks.

Be found where you operate

Depot and office pages with local SEO.

Pages and content we produce for logistics and freight companies

One per service, with process, timeline and price range.

Origin to destination, transit times, requirements.

One per sector you move goods for.

Customs, documents, packaging, insurance.

Depots and offices with local SEO.

 

Written and indexed properly, which cut support calls.

Details that matter in this industry

Logistics search is specific and commercial, and the sites that rank name the route and the number. A page for “Lagos to Accra road freight” with transit time and a price range brings the enquiry that a general “road freight” page never will.

Foundation fits regional carriers and forwarders; Growth adds links from trade press and the industry page volume a national company needs. The report shows quote requests by page.

What content and SEO for a logistics company 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.

Questions logistics and freight companies ask

Ranges and the factors, with a quote form. The page ranks; the quote comes by form.

They rank almost alone, because few competitors write them.

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.

Recommended retainer

Foundation

Service and route pages fixed for the terms shippers use, four pieces a month, and local SEO for depots and offices.

Related industries

Automotive

Model, service and dealer pages that bring buyers and bookings.

E-commerce

Category copy, buying guides and seasonal pages that rank.

Manufacturing

Product, specification and application pages for engineers who search.

All retainers

Foundation

$1,500 to $2,500 a month

Four articles a month on a fixed keyword map, technical fixes first. For a site that is not yet ranking for its own name.

Growth

$3,000 to $5,000 a month

Eight articles, link building and landing pages every month. The retainer we recommend for a site that has to rank for new terms, and the closest fit to the UPay and UEEx work.

Scale

$6,000 to $9,000 a month

Sixteen pieces a month, digital PR and a second market. For teams that already rank and want to hold the category.

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 shippers 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.
