Client wins for Harrogate digital agency as demand for online search marketing grows

Zelst, a Harrogate Search marketing agency launched in 2006 by search marketing specialist Peter Van Zelst, has begun 2022 with two new client wins in January after 12 months of growing demand for the agency’s online search marketing services that has already created three new jobs.

The firm, which now employs a team of 12 staff, made three new appointments in 2021 in response to the boost in new business which also saw fee income rise by 40% over the year.

Zelst’s latest new clients are a Peterborough-based modular buildings provider Elliott, and My Student Halls, a UK-wide student accommodation search engine.

Peter Van Zelst said: “The mass migration to online that was triggered by the pandemic looks to be here to stay, as web traffic levels remain high long after lockdowns have ended, and that means it’s even more essential for organisations to be seen and get found.

“As one of the north’s longest-established and most experienced search marketing agencies we’ve carefully built up our expert team and our reputation for putting brands in the right place, at the right time and in front of the right people.

“We’re so pleased to be working with these two ambitious new clients because we know what we do for our customers really works, and enables them to succeed and grow.”

He added: “Although, like every business, we’ve come up against all sorts of challenges over the last two years, I’m really confident that Zelst is in a great place to continue to grow. We’ve got a great, passionate and highly skilled team on board and we’re excited about driving forward the growth and momentum we’ve built together in 2021. With several new clients in the pipeline, we hope to have more announcements to make soon, and to add to the team in due course.”

Zelst provides highly targeted SEO, paid search and biddable media management and content campaigns for businesses across the UK and also exports its services to a growing client base in the US.
