Digital Foundations & Growth · Proposal

Preparing BarcelonaTours for the new search and AI landscape.

From SEO-led acquisition to a stronger digital ecosystem built to be found, understood, trusted and recommended.

INTRO

The environment has changed. The opportunity is to adapt the system around it.

BarcelonaTours has spent more than 15 years building a successful business, with SEO and SEM playing an important role in generating corporate opportunities. Search behaviour is evolving, AI is changing how businesses are discovered and evaluated, and visibility now depends on much more than traditional SEO alone.

What this proposal covers

Foundations first. Then continuous visibility and growth.

We set out what needs to be fixed first, what ongoing work should look like, two ways of working together and a clear investment path — without overpromising outcomes or hiding the real scope required.

01
The opportunity

Updating the system, not simply the SEO.

Modern visibility is influenced by the whole digital ecosystem: technical foundations, website structure, content, messaging, UX, credibility and authority across relevant platforms.

Easier to find → easier to understand → easier to trust → easier to recommend → easier to choose.
02
Why Bobs

One senior team. One strategic direction.

Bobs is a Barcelona-based boutique agency with a senior, bilingual team of around ten people. We stay small by design, work closely with a limited number of clients and plug into their businesses as an extension of the team.

Boutique by design

Small enough to care deeply.

Our core team has worked together for more than five years, giving clients continuity and direct senior involvement.

Content at the core

Strategy + content + execution.

Content remains one of our strongest capabilities, but today it must work together with brand, SEO, UX, design and distribution.

360 under one roof

Joined-up expertise.

Strategy, content, branding, copywriting, design, web, UX, technical SEO, SEO/GEO and marketing under one direction.

03
Our objective

Future-proof BarcelonaTours' digital presence.

Improve how BarcelonaTours is structured, understood, perceived and surfaced across traditional search engines and AI-driven discovery tools — strengthening the website first, then building the wider visibility and authority around it.

04
Our recommended approach

Two phases. One clear logic.

Phase 1

Foundations

Make the core digital ecosystem ready: website, SEO, AI-readiness, content, UX and authority foundations.

€3,000 fixed project

Same scope whether delivered over 3 months or accelerated over approximately 4 weeks.

Phase 2

Ongoing visibility & growth

Build continuously on the foundations through new content, optimisation of existing content, LinkedIn distribution and wider authority as investment grows.

From €1,250 / month

Option 1 · Recommended

Strategy + execution.

Bobs defines the strategic direction and takes responsibility for implementing the agreed work.

Phase 1 · SEO & AI Digital Foundations

€3,000 to get the core system ready.

Staged€1,000/month × 3 months
Ongoing execution begins in Month 4.
Accelerated€3,000 · approx. 4 weeks
Ongoing execution begins in Month 2.
01

Digital & search diagnostic

Focused review of current performance, technical SEO, website structure, search visibility, AI-discovery signals, content, UX and relevant competitors — prioritising what matters most.

02

Technical & structural foundations

Implementation of the highest-priority site-wide improvements affecting crawlability, indexation, architecture, hierarchy, internal linking and other core SEO foundations within the existing platform.

03

Key main pages

SEO, content, messaging and UX optimisation of up to four core pages or areas that define BarcelonaTours and its main commercial journeys. Blog content moves into Phase 2.

04

Content & UX framework

A reusable structure for future service and content pages covering messaging hierarchy, proof, calls to action, internal linking and the information BarcelonaTours should communicate consistently.

05

GBP & reputation foundations

Optimisation of the core Google Business Profile setup and a strategy for using reviews and client proof across the website and wider ecosystem. BarcelonaTours keeps review collection and responses in-house.

06

Measurement & roadmap

A clear starting point for monitoring progress, together with a prioritised six-month roadmap covering remaining website opportunities, existing content optimisation, new content and wider visibility initiatives.

06
Phase 2 · Ongoing Visibility & Growth

Keep building the signals that drive visibility and authority.

Once the foundations are ready, the core engine becomes new strategic content, optimisation of the existing blog estate, LinkedIn distribution and ongoing search/AI analysis.

Essential

Focused progress

€1,250 / month

A controlled programme to keep the content and search engine moving consistently.

  • 1 new strategic article
  • 1 existing blog article optimised
  • 2 LinkedIn posts
  • Search + AI performance review
  • Content prioritisation + reporting
  • Reviews leveraged in content/site when relevant
Integrated Growth

  • Search + AI performance review
  • Wider channel strategy
  • 2 strategic / performance sessions

Authority initiatives are selected according to opportunity and may include relevant industry platforms, partnerships, expert contributions, digital PR, directories or community channels such as Reddit when genuinely appropriate.

07
What to expect

Clear commitments. Realistic expectations.

Phase 1 sets the system up.

It is designed to put the core digital foundations in place and optimise the main website experience. It is not a promise that historic traffic, rankings or bookings will recover within one or three months.

Phase 2 compounds over time.

Search visibility, authority and AI discovery require consistent work, monitoring and adjustment. We track search visibility, priority-content performance, available AI-discovery signals and qualified corporate enquiries.

We commit to clear priorities, defined deliverables, senior execution and transparent reporting — not guaranteed rankings, AI recommendations or predetermined lead volumes.
08
Option 2

Strategic Advisory.

Bobs defines the direction. BarcelonaTours executes internally.

Phase 1 · Digital Foundations Advisory

Strategic direction only

€2,500

Focused diagnostic, priority roadmap, SEO/AI foundations framework, website/content/UX recommendations and implementation guidance.

BarcelonaTours remains responsible for technical implementation, website changes, copywriting, design, publishing and internal coordination.

Ongoing Strategic Advisory

Senior guidance, execution in-house

€900 / month

2 monthly strategy sessions + performance and metrics review + updated monthly priorities.

Bobs helps interpret performance, decide what should happen next and keep the strategy aligned. BarcelonaTours manages all production and day-to-day execution.

Why we recommend Option 1: the difference in the foundation phase is €500, but Bobs also implements the priority work. The same team that identifies the issues can carry the solution through, reducing internal workload and the gap between strategy and delivery.
09
Working together

Clear roles. No unnecessary duplication.

BarcelonaTours provides the relevant website, analytics and Google Business Profile access, existing business information and one primary point of contact. Bobs works within the current systems wherever possible.

Reviews stay in-house.

BarcelonaTours requests and responds to customer reviews. Bobs defines how that proof should be leveraged across the website and wider content ecosystem.

Multilingual, with boundaries.

The foundation assessment considers the multilingual website, while individual content-production quantities refer to one primary language unless additional localisation is allocated.

Major builds are separate.

Full redesigns, rebrands, custom development, paid-media management, major CRM work, original photo/video production and third-party software are scoped separately.

Our recommendation

Start with the foundations. Then grow the programme as the budget allows.

Based on BarcelonaTours' current available investment, we recommend the full-service foundation project delivered over three months at €1,000/month. If speed becomes the priority, the same scope can be accelerated into approximately four weeks.

Recommended starting point
€3,000

SEO & AI Digital Foundations

€1,000 × 3 months

Longer term, our recommended ongoing model is Growth · €2,000/month. Essential at €1,250/month provides the minimum ongoing programme if the budget needs to grow more gradually.
