SEO agency that actually delivers results
More organic traffic, better positions in Google and demonstrable growth in enquiries. No empty promises — only measurable results.
What does an SEO agency do for your business?
An SEO agency ensures your website ranks better in Google — without paying per click. We optimise the technical foundation of your site, create content that matches what your target audience searches for, and build authority through relevant citations.
The result: structurally more visitors on the pages that matter. Visitors who are actively searching for what you offer, and therefore far more likely to become customers than people who see an ad.
At VDH Agency we work without intermediaries. Lars van der Hoek is personally involved in every project. You always know who is working on your SEO and what is being done.

How an SEO agency improves your visibility
Technical SEO Audit
We analyse your website on all technical SEO factors: loading speed, crawlability, Core Web Vitals, canonicalisation, hreflang and mobile performance. You receive a prioritised list of concrete improvements.
Keyword Research & Strategy
We map out which keywords your target audience uses and how achievable it is to rank for them. Based on this we build a realistic SEO plan aligned with your business objectives.
On-Page & Content Optimisation
Titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, internal links and content — everything is optimised for the keywords that really matter. We also write new content that attracts visitors and converts them.
Local SEO & Google Business Profile
For businesses that want to grow locally: we optimise your Google Business Profile, build consistent NAP citations and ensure you appear in local search results in your city or region.
What makes us different as an SEO agency?
No vague reporting
Every month you receive a clear report with your current rankings, organic traffic and development compared to the previous month. Precise, transparent and without jargon.
Honest about expectations
We tell you upfront what is realistic. If a keyword is too competitive for your budget, we say so. We prefer giving honest advice over signing a contract with unachievable promises.
No large agency structure
At VDH Agency you always work directly with Lars. No account manager passing things on, no junior executing your SEO while the senior sells. Direct line, personal involvement.
SME specialist
Our services are specifically tailored to Dutch SMEs. Not an enterprise approach with an enterprise budget, but an SEO strategy that fits the scale and objectives of your business.

Frequently asked questions about SEO agencies
What does an SEO agency in the Netherlands cost?
SEO agency costs in the Netherlands typically range from €300 to €1,500 per month depending on project scope and competitiveness. The exact investment at VDH Agency is always discussed in a free introductory consultation — so you know exactly what to expect.
How quickly will I see SEO results?
The first measurable improvements are usually visible after 8 to 16 weeks. Stable positions at the top of Google are typically achieved after 3 to 6 months. In less competitive markets this can happen faster. We report monthly on rankings, organic traffic and conversions.
Can an SEO agency guarantee Google positions?
Any agency that guarantees specific positions is lying. Google determines its own rankings based on hundreds of factors. What we guarantee: transparent working methods, proven techniques, monthly reporting and demonstrable growth in organic traffic. No empty promises.
What is the difference between SEO and SEA?
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) focuses on organic visibility — positions you earn through relevance and authority. SEA (Search Engine Advertising) involves paid ads in Google. SEO has a longer lead time but delivers sustainable results; SEA is immediately visible but stops when your budget runs out. We combine both for maximum effect.
Does SEO work for local businesses?
Absolutely. Local SEO is particularly effective for SMEs. 46% of all Google searches have local intent (Google, 2025). By optimising your Google Business Profile, targeting local keywords and building consistent NAP citations, you can demonstrably improve your visibility in your region.
