Locomotive Digital provides monthly reporting in the format most convenient for the client.
The report includes:
- Ranking dynamics across the full semantic core (TOP-3 / TOP-10 / TOP-30 breakdown)
- Organic traffic chart with month-on-month and year-on-year comparison
- Number and quality of new backlinks, overall link profile growth

Format: Google Sheets or PDF — at the client's choice. Once a month — an online meeting with the account manager to review the report.
Yes. Core specialisation: large-scale semantic cores, navigation optimisation, duplicate elimination, structured data for product cards (rich snippets), category and filter page promotion.
The minimum budget for launching Google Ads depends on the niche and competition level. For most projects, the recommended starting budget is from $600/month. For e-commerce with a broad product range — from $1,500/month. The more competitive the niche and the higher the cost-per-click, the larger the budget needed to gather statistically significant results and scale effectively.
Google Ads captures existing demand (search intent). Meta generates demand: targeting by interests, behaviour, and demographics. The most effective strategy combines both channels.
Yes. Best for audiences aged 16–35: fashion, beauty, gadgets, food, entertainment, online education. Lower CPM than Meta and Google makes it attractive for testing and scaling.
Ad budgets stay in client accounts. The agency receives partner-level access (admin/analyst) with no ability to withdraw funds. All accounts remain the client's property after the engagement.
SMM is essential for any business whose audience spends time on social media. This applies to e-commerce, local businesses, service providers, education, B2B companies, and personal brands. At the start, we recommends focusing on 1–2 platforms and prioritising content quality over posting volume. Done right, SMM builds brand trust, increases awareness, and strengthens loyalty among existing customers.
The agency handles the full cycle: copywriting, post and story design. The client provides source materials (photos, brand book, TOV); the agency produces the publications.
The standard Locomotive Digital SMM package includes:
- From 60 stories per month
- From 6 posts per month
- From 8 videos per month
The exact volume depends on the chosen package, platform, and promotion goals. All formats are confirmed after the brief and content strategy approval.
Locomotive Digital runs targeted advertising on: Facebook, Instagram (Meta Ads), and TikTok Ads. Platform selection depends on the target audience, product, and campaign objectives. For audiences 35+ and B2B — primarily Meta. For younger audiences aged 16–35 and broad reach — TikTok.
We set up the full spectrum of campaigns: brand reach and awareness, website traffic, engagement (likes, comments, followers), lead generation (Lead Ads), on-site conversions (purchases, enquiries), retargeting of site visitors, and lookalike audiences. Campaign structure is built according to the client's sales funnel.
Key KPIs: CPM (cost per 1,000 impressions), CPC (cost per click), CTR (click-through rate), CPL (cost per lead), CPA (cost per action/purchase), ROAS (return on ad spend). We set up the Meta Pixel and conversion tracking to see the full journey from ad impression to purchase.
Yes. Meta allows lead generation directly through a form in Facebook/Instagram (Lead Ads) — without redirecting to a website. This is particularly convenient for service businesses, consultation bookings, and enquiry collection. Traffic can also be directed to WhatsApp, Messenger, or a social media page.
Meeting with the project team. Week 1: access collection (GA4, GSC, ad accounts), technical audit, competitor analysis. Month 1: semantic core/strategy and launch of technical and content work. A dedicated account manager is assigned.
SEO: minimum 6 months recommended (delayed effect). PPC and paid ads: typically from 3 months. Exact terms discussed individually.
All deliverables belong to the client: content, technical improvements, backlink profile, ad accounts, analytics. The agency transfers all access credentials and material archives.
Yes. The integrated approach synchronises channels: SEO builds organic traffic and authority, PPC delivers fast conversions, SMM builds loyalty and remarketing audiences. All channel data is analysed together.
For some technical tasks — yes. The agency requests CMS access (WordPress, OpenCart, Magento) for robots.txt, sitemap.xml, and redirect configurations. Access level is agreed in advance and all changes are logged.
Google Analytics 4, Google Search Console, Ahrefs / Serpstat / Semrush, Screaming Frog, Google Looker Studio, Google Ads / Meta Ads Manager.
SEO: organic traffic growth, TOP-10/TOP-3 count, Visibility index. PPC: CTR, CPC, CPL, ROAS. SMM: reach, ER, follower growth, social leads. KPIs are set jointly with the client at project start.
Google's performance metrics: LCP (load speed), INP (interaction response), CLS (layout stability). A ranking factor: sites with poor scores lose positions to competitors even with quality content.
UAH for Ukrainian clients; USD/EUR for international. Bank transfer or card payment.
Yes. Bundled orders (e.g., SEO+PPC or SEO+SMM) are discounted compared to individual service prices. Exact discount determined after scoping the project.
Yes. An official service agreement is mandatory. After payment: invoices and service completion certificates are provided.
AI transforms but doesn't replace SEO. Competing now means winning in both Google rankings and AI-generated answers (ChatGPT/Gemini). Brands with authoritative, structured content gain an advantage in both.
E-E-A-T: Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness — Google's content quality framework. Key actions: publish content by real subject-matter experts, build brand mentions in trusted sources, collect verified reviews.
Organic: free search traffic via SEO — delayed start but stable and scalable long-term. Paid (PPC/social ads): immediate results but requires continuous spend. The optimal strategy combines both channels.
