About Opace

Opace Ltd is a family-run digital agency in Birmingham. It started in 2008, and the current company was formed in July 2010. Its address is 11 Brindley Place, Brunswick Square, and it earlier had addresses at The Mailbox and Park House. David Bryan is managing director and Rob Bryan is technical director. The managing director oversees every client relationship personally. The team has 10 to 49 people.

The agency covers a wide range of work. On the build side it handles WordPress, Drupal, Umbraco and headless sites, Magento and WooCommerce stores, and Laravel or React web apps. On the search side it offers technical, local, international and e-commerce SEO, audits, schema, link building, copywriting, and GEO and AEO work for AI answers. It also runs Google, Meta and LinkedIn ads, digital PR, content, email, CRO, A/B testing, accessibility work and AI chatbots. New clients start with a free website audit and discovery call, then get a tailored roadmap and a dedicated account manager.

Opace has no dental page. Its closest material is a healthcare and medical page offering CQC-ready, GDPR-compliant websites with patient booking, healthcare SEO and marketing for clinics, private practices and care providers. Its healthcare and care clients include Acorns Children's Hospice, Compassionate Communities and White Cross Vets, but no healthcare results are published. They are best suited to UK private practices that want a new website and SEO from one supplier, with the option to train in-house staff. David Bryan delivers SEO training, which several reviewers mention.

Most of their published results come from retail and manufacturing. Shedstore gained 45% in organic visibility and more than 500 page-one rankings. SPI Lasers saw search visibility rise 25%. Corcorans Home & Furniture saw roughly four times more traffic and conversions within about six months, and Physical Gold's daily organic visitors rose from about 30 to about 150. They hold 5.0 on Clutch from 15 reviews, which mention speed and clear guidance; one client asked for more frequent updates. Trustpilot shows 4.7 from 26 reviews, although none were posted in the past year. Clutch named them a top full-service agency and a top web design company in Birmingham in 2023.

Prices are published. SEO campaigns run from £650 a month for smaller local work to £5,000 a month for larger projects. Support costs £60 to £90 an hour, and pay-monthly websites start at £50 a month. There are no fixed-length contracts. They expect SEO gains within three to twelve months.
