For Interior Designers

SEO for Interior Designers

Get found by homeowners and businesses researching a design project — with SEO tools built for portfolio-driven creative services.

An interior design project is a considered, portfolio-driven decision — clients spend weeks browsing past work, comparing styles, and reading about process before enquiring. Illumae gives interior designers the same SEO infrastructure larger design studios use — keyword research, technical audits, AI-assisted content, and structured data — without the agency price tag. From £40/month per domain, or free to start.

Target the Research-Heavy Design Journey

"Interior designer near me", "small living room design ideas", "cost of hiring an interior designer" — clients search by style, room type, and budget across a long research window. keyword research and rank tracking gives you real search volume and difficulty data for these terms, then tracks your organic Google ranking for each one.

Draft Content — With a Regulatory-Accuracy Check

AI content generation drafts articles from a target keyword — style guides, project walkthroughs, or explainers on what working with a designer involves. Every draft runs through a fact-consistency audit, but it does not verify building-regulation or planning-permission accuracy — check any regulatory claims yourself before publishing.

Fix the Technical Issues Costing You Enquiries

A slow-loading portfolio gallery is a genuine problem when your finished projects are the main thing selling your work. site audit crawls your entire site and returns a health score with a prioritised, page-by-page fix list, flagging slow-loading pages and images without alt text specifically.

See Who's Linking to Your Portfolio

backlink checker shows domain authority and spam-risk banding for every backlink pointing to your site — useful for seeing which press features and supplier partnerships are genuinely helping. If you find links worth disavowing, Illumae generates a properly formatted Google disavow file.

Add Professional Service Structured Data

Illumae's Schema Generator produces valid JSON-LD Professional Service structured data — your business name, service area, and contact details in a machine-readable format. You paste the generated code into your site's page head yourself.

Frequently asked questions

What keywords should an interior designer track?+

It depends on your specialisms, but Illumae's keyword research gives you real search volume and difficulty data to decide with evidence. Useful starting points are room-type and style-specific searches, cost-related queries, and location-based "near me" terms.

Does the AI content tool get building regulations right?+

Not reliably — it doesn't independently verify claims about building regulations, planning permission, or structural requirements. Check any regulatory specifics against current guidance yourself before publishing.

How does the site audit help an interior design website?+

It crawls every page and returns a health score with a prioritised fix list — flagging things like slow-loading portfolio galleries and missing alt text on project photos, which matter enormously on an image-heavy site.

What does the Professional Service schema actually include?+

It's JSON-LD markup that tells search engines your business name, service area, and contact details in a machine-readable format. You paste the output into your site's page head — real, mechanical groundwork for how search engines represent your business.
