Rank First

Rank First operates from Melbourne and the Sunshine Coast, serving small and medium businesses across Australia, including tradespeople, professional service providers, retailers and healthcare providers. Founded in 2018, the agency positions itself as a specialist SEO and Google Ads provider rather than a full-service digital marketing company, stating it does not handle social media, email marketing or web development as separate offerings, despite web design appearing among its listed services. It works on a rolling monthly arrangement without lock-in contracts or keyword limits, aiming to help clients understand where their site stands and how it can perform better, including visibility within AI-powered search results such as ChatGPT. Core services include SEO, Pay Per Click management, Conversion Rate Optimisation and web design. SEO work combines on-page and off-page strategies aligned with Google's best practices, with regular reporting on keyword rankings, organic traffic and conversions. The PPC service covers Google AdWords, AdWords remarketing and Google Shopping campaigns, with ongoing monitoring and adjustment intended to reduce wasteful clicks and improve return on ad spend, supported by transparent reporting. A free, human-edited site audit is offered as an entry point, providing a technical SEO report that flags errors and issues affecting rankings, along with recommendations and indicative pricing. CRO activity involves testing to improve how visitors convert once they reach the site. Clients receive monthly updates outlining completed work and planned next steps.
