We're a senior-led ecommerce marketing studio based in Hastings on the Sussex coast. We work with brands in Brighton, across East Sussex, and the wider South Coast. Strategy, paid media, Shopify, and SEO.
Sector 106 has worked with British brands since the late 1990s. The agency was based in Brighton for the early years and we know the city's ecommerce community well. We're now based down the coast in Hastings, East Sussex, but we continue to work with brands across the region.
SEO agency in Hastings, East Sussex
SEO agency in Hastings: earned rankings, not bought ones.
We do ecommerce SEO that earns Google's trust. No link buying. No black-hat. No keyword stuffing. The kind of SEO that holds its position through every helpful-content update Google runs.
For our ecommerce brands, that means:
- A full technical SEO audit of your Shopify (or other ecommerce platform) site, with prioritised fixes
- Content strategy built around the search terms your customers actually run
- Schema markup, structural fixes, and the unglamorous on-page work that compounds results
