Strategy, Planning and Understanding the Sector

ACO needed a platform that explained what they do clearly, built trust, and helped clients contact them without friction. Their work spans utility warrants, property repossessions, detection dogs and security support, often in sensitive environments. Welfare standards, professionalism, and operational experience matter to them.

We started by understanding their operation from Yeovil, how a Somerset-based team built specialist services used nationwide, and what matters to the organisations who hire them – utilities providers, enforcement teams, local authorities, and private landlords. From content to structure, the focus was always on clarity, procedure, and reliability.

A Professional Identity That Supports Credibility

ACO’s previous website didn’t communicate their experience or the welfare-first approach that underpins every job. We reworked their positioning, structure, and language to reflect who they are: calm, professional, and experienced handlers trusted to work in challenging situations.

The new identity uses plain language over sales talk, outlining services, approach, welfare standards, and contact routes in a way that a utility lead or enforcement coordinator wants to see. The visuals stay clean and direct, letting the work speak for itself.

Custom Website Design and WordPress Development

The entire site was designed and developed in WordPress using a lightweight custom build. Pages are structured around real workflows, from service outlines to direct contact paths. Every section can be edited by the ACO team without breaking layout or brand style, so they can update services, add information, and respond to the needs of clients themselves.

The new site is flexible, fast, and easy to navigate, whether someone is browsing from a phone on site, or reviewing service options in an office.

SEO, Performance and Best Practice From Day One

Technical SEO is always worked into the build not added afterwards. Content hierarchy, URLs, metadata, internal linking, and schema were all handled properly to support search visibility around their core service areas. Animal control, detection dogs, repossession support, utility warrants, and specialist field services across the UK.

Performance matters for credibility, so the site is lean, image-optimised, and built to load quickly regardless of device or signal quality. Nothing heavy, nothing unnecessary.

Secure Hosting and Ongoing Maintenance

The site is hosted on our fully managed WordPress stack, updated, backed up, monitored, and secured.

We continue to work with the team on improvements, content updates, and future phases, supporting a Somerset business growing its reputation across the UK.
