When working for a charity, spending money can seem counterintuitive. But just because you’re a non-profit doesn’t mean people will automatically find you. Even charities need ads.

Whether you’re raising awareness for your cause, recruiting volunteers, promoting upcoming events or encouraging donations, PPC advertising can help you reach the people who matter most. Better still, eligible charities can receive up to $10,000 (around £8,000) of free Google Ads credit every month through the Google Ad Grants programme.

The catch? Receiving the grant is one thing – making it work is another. We work with numerous non-profit businesses creating successful campaigns that deliver meaningful action, while minimising spend.

If you’re a charity or non-profit, get in touch.

As a small-to-medium-sized business, what’s that one thing you can do that no one else can do better?

You know what you’re good at. That’s probably why you started the business in the first place. The thought of trusting that to someone else is unthinkable.

But what about the things you’re less confident in?

Whether it’s uncertainty or simply not wanting to add another expense to the monthly books, outsourcing can be a difficult decision. But it’s worth looking at the bigger picture. After all, your time has value too.

If it’s a job you hate, takes twice as long as it should, and you’re still unsure you’ve done it right, surely it makes more sense to hand it to a professional?

At Agency51, we see ourselves as an extension of your team. Our team of professionals can take care of the areas you’re less confident in, while you focus on what you do best. Monthly meetings, detailed reporting and complete transparency mean you always know what we’ve done, where your money has gone and, importantly, what it’s achieved.

Concentrate on what you’re great at. Let us take care of the rest.

When your business evolves, your website should too.

Springhill is an absolute expert in their field, maintaining private water supplies across the North of England for over 20 years. This weekend, we launched their new website, designed and built by us.

Springhill needed a modern site that showcased their technical expertise and strong branding, with easy-to-navigate pages that answered their customers' questions.

The new design introduces clearer categories, intuitive navigation, updated imagery and new technical elements that make complex information easy to understand at a glance.

The result is a website that reflects Springhill today; professional, knowledgeable and focused on giving clients quick access to the expertise they need.

It’s been a pleasure working with you on this one, Springhill.

Has your brand outgrown it's website? Whether it's a simple design refresh or a full replatform, we're here to create a website that looks and acts the part. Get in touch with A51 team or take a look at our case studies to see more of our work.

Some great insights here from Semrush.

2026 has seen a huge shift in search due to a surge in AI tools.

Traditional SEO is still essential, but it’s no longer the whole story.
More people than ever are turning to AI-powered search and understanding the difference between SEO (optimising for search engines) and GEO (getting cited in AI-generated answers) is becoming a real competitive advantage. Businesses need to think beyond rankings and focus on being found wherever people are searching.

The only problem is, when you’re spinning all the plates of running a business, it can be a struggle to keep pace with ever evolving SEO (and now GEO) changes, and ultimately your website pays the price. We’re here to stop that happening.

We keep your website visible, relevant and ready for the future of search. Send us a message for a chat about how we can help grow your online visibility.

What are you really optimizing for: rankings or visibility?
Here's how SEO and GEO fit together 🔎

We’re here to address rumours of another Google algorithm update. Before you throw your computer out of the window in despair, take a breath.

We get it, with algorithm updates comes uncertainty, volatility and a frantic scramble to find a quick fix before your rankings slip. But the brands that perform consistently in search rarely chase every algorithm change.

Instead, they focus on the core focus of business:

⚡Helpful, original content
⚡A fast, user-friendly website
⚡Clear expertise and trustworthiness
⚡Solving real customer problems
⚡A strong brand people actively search for

We’re not saying algorithm updates don’t matter, but they’re just part of the picture. Updates come and go; strong websites and brands are here to stay.

Whether Google updates tomorrow or next month, the best time to strengthen your SEO is today. If you’d like a second opinion on your website or search strategy, we’re always happy to chat.
