Engineering in Sheffield
Sheffield has about 335 firms in metal products and fabrication, close to twice the share we see in other large UK cities, plus around 390 engineering consultancies.
That concentration makes general terms hard to win. The gains come from specific work: a fabrication process, a type of structure, a sector you know well. Each is a page that a specifier can find and judge quickly.
If your business is more about production than fabrication, our page on marketing for manufacturers covers that side.
What specifiers search for
Engineering searches are narrow and technical.
What we fix first for engineering firms
- ServicesSplit by discipline
- ProjectsCase pages
- ApprovalsVisible
- TrackingEnquiries measured
The first step is splitting broad service pages by discipline or process, so each can rank for its own terms.
Then we write project case pages from your past work. Specifiers trust detail: loads, spans, materials, timescales.
Finally we make enquiries measurable, including drawing uploads and calls, so the report shows what is working.

- Approvals shown
- Enquiry tracking
Fabricators and consultancies need different pages
A fabrication shop sells capability: what it can make, in what materials, to what codes and in what quantities. A consultancy sells expertise: the projects it has delivered, the problems it has solved and the qualifications of its engineers.
Both are engineering, but a specifier judging each looks for different evidence. We build pages to match. Fabrication pages lead with processes, sizes and approvals; consultancy pages lead with sectors, project types and named disciplines.
Project pages work for both. A short write-up of a real job, with the brief, the constraints and the outcome, often outranks a general service page because it matches the specific search a specifier makes.
We interview your engineers for the detail, then write pages they are happy to send to clients.
Six months of engineering marketing
A typical first six months, based on how similar accounts have run.
Month one
Service pages split by discipline or process; tracking for enquiries and uploads.
Month two
The first three project pages written from past work.
Months three and four
Approvals and memberships added where they count; first industry links.
Months five and six
More project and sector pages; regional or national targeting widened.

Mistakes engineering firms make online
A single "services" page listing every discipline. It cannot rank for any of them well.
Case studies written as press releases. Specifiers want the technical detail, not a quote from the managing director.
Treating the website as a brochure that never changes. New projects are new pages waiting to be written.
Our general approach for firms in the city is on the SEO in Sheffield home page.
