London and Cape Town Google Partner with packaged dental SEO for dentists
About Nautilus Marketing
Nautilus Marketing is a full-service digital agency with offices at Vintage House on Albert Embankment in London and at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town, South Africa. It builds websites and apps and offers SEO, link building, digital PR, social media, email, Google, Meta, Amazon and LinkedIn ads, design, photography, video and copywriting. It is a Google Partner, a Wix Partner and a Shopify Partner. The team has 10 to 49 people.
Tom Jauncey started the business in 2017 as a social media agency. He is a former actor who now hosts The Nauti Nerds Podcast and a YouTube channel on small business marketing. Jake Ashby, who came from corporate IT, joined in 2020, and the two co-own the agency with the title 'Head Nerd'. The wider team includes an operations manager, a senior SEO and PPC account manager, a web and design project manager and social media staff. Since 2021 the agency has given funding to marine charities such as Surfers Against Sewage and the Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Clients include Amazon, the European Commission and Swindon Borough Council.
Its dental SEO service is aimed at dentists and orthodontists in the UK, the US and elsewhere. Work starts with keyword research, a technical audit and competitor analysis, described as 'reverse engineering' what ranking rivals do. A one-off Jumpstart package (£699 for a five-page site, plus £175 per extra page) sets up Google Analytics, sitemaps, meta data, ALT tags, an AI search setup, a Google Maps listing and three local directory entries. Monthly packages add content optimisation, blog topics and web development support. Higher tiers add monthly blog posts, brand mentions and optimisation for AI assistants (LLM optimisation), and the top tier adds Reddit and Quora mentions.
The agency names no dental clients and has no dental case study. It has first-page results for clients in the US, UK, Europe, South Africa and the UAE. Reviewers credit it with more website traffic, better-quality visitors and, in one case, a first client won through AI search. It suits single-site practices and orthodontists who want a fixed package with a set number of target keywords, rather than a dental-only specialist.
Ratings are strong across platforms: 4.8 from 55 Trustpilot reviews, 5.0 from 187 Google reviews, and 4.7 on Semrush. Clients often name staff members and praise quick replies and care after launch. The Entry package costs £799 a month for 12 keywords. Accelerator costs £1,499 or £1,599 for 25 keywords, and Growth £1,999 or £2,149 for 40 keywords; two prices are given for each. Prices exclude VAT. Every tier includes a dedicated account manager and a monthly report and call. Work is on a rolling monthly basis with one month's notice, though Entry carries a six-month minimum. The agency does not guarantee first-page rankings.
