SEO for Interior Designers and Design Studios
Clients find interior designers through search, portfolio sites, and increasingly through AI recommendations. SEO for interior designers turns your portfolio into pages that rank, so the right clients find your studio.
The problem
Beautiful portfolios rarely rank on their own.
Interior design websites are visual. Large images, minimal text, and elegant layouts impress visitors but give search engines little to understand. Many studios rank only for their own name.
Searches like “interior designer for small apartments” or “modern farmhouse interior designer” are specific, and they bring clients who already like your style. Without pages for them, you're invisible.
Many designers build on Squarespace or Wix, which can rank well when set up properly but often aren't.
My approach
Keep the portfolio stunning. Give it words that rank.
I turn portfolio projects into pages with short, thoughtful write-ups: the brief, the style, the space, and the location. Images get descriptive file names and alt text. Service pages explain how you work, who you work with, and the styles you're known for.
Local SEO and consistent listings on design directories help you appear for nearby searches. I work within your platform, whether that's WordPress, Squarespace, or Wix, so your design stays intact.

Not sure where to start?
Start with the audit. It shows exactly what to fix first.
Will SEO changes affect my site's design?
No major changes. I add text in ways that fit your layout, such as short project descriptions and service sections.
Do you work on Squarespace?
Yes. Many design studios use Squarespace or Wix, and I optimize within their settings.
Can SEO bring higher-budget clients?
It can help you reach clients searching for the styles and services you target. I can't guarantee client budgets, but specific pages attract more relevant inquiries.
Do features in design publications help?
Yes. Mentions and links from respected publications support authority and how AI tools understand your studio.
How much writing do I need to do?
Very little. I can draft project descriptions from short notes or a quick call, then you approve them.
How long does it take?
Local improvements can appear within weeks. Style and service pages usually build rankings over three to six months.
