Industry Expertise

Digital Solutions for Insurance & Financial Services

Financial services is one of the most competitive and heavily regulated sectors online. Google applies heightened scrutiny to financial content through its YMYL guidelines, requiring pages to demonstrate authority and trustworthiness well beyond what other industries need. Generic approaches that work in less regulated sectors often fail here.

EXPRE builds and optimises digital presences for insurance companies, financial advisers, wealth managers, fintech platforms, and mortgage brokers. We understand the compliance constraints, the trust-building requirements, and the SEO complexity specific to regulated financial content.

Sector Challenges We Address

Compliance Complexity

FCA regulations, financial promotions rules, and YMYL content standards mean financial content cannot simply be written for SEO. It must be accurate, properly disclaimed, and compliant. We work with your compliance team throughout the content process to ensure nothing is published that creates regulatory risk.

Trust-Building Online

Financial services customers need to trust you before they enquire. FCA authorisation details, professional accreditations, client testimonials, published case studies, and industry awards all serve both human visitors and AI systems evaluating your credibility. We implement these signals systematically.

Legacy System Integration

Many financial services businesses run on legacy technology that does not connect cleanly to modern digital platforms. We use n8n to bridge legacy systems and websites, automating data flows that would otherwise require manual intervention or expensive bespoke development.

How EXPRE Helps Financial Services Firms

We implement E-E-A-T signals systematically across every page: author credentials, regulatory compliance signals, accurate disclaimers, and verifiable expertise. Google classifies financial content as YMYL, subject to its highest quality standards, and these signals are not optional for businesses competing in this space.

AI-powered search adds a second layer of complexity. Google AI Overviews and large language models are now answering financial questions directly. If your business is not structured as an authoritative source for these systems, you lose visibility twice: once in traditional search, once in AI-generated responses. We address both.

Common Questions

Why does financial services SEO need a specialist approach?

Google applies YMYL standards to financial content, requiring higher authority and trustworthiness than most industries. Financial content also has regulatory requirements that generic agencies overlook. A specialist approach ensures your strategy accounts for both search requirements and regulatory obligations.

How do you handle FCA compliance in content?

We work closely with your compliance team. All content goes through a review process ensuring regulatory accuracy before publication. We implement proper risk warnings, FCA disclaimers, and ensure no content could be classified as an unapproved financial promotion.

How long does financial services SEO take to show results?

Due to the competitive landscape and YMYL requirements, financial services SEO typically takes four to eight months for significant ranking improvements. Technical SEO, local search, and long-tail keywords can deliver results within the first eight to twelve weeks.

Can you help with AI visibility for financial services?

Yes. AI platforms are increasingly answering financial questions. We optimise your content to appear in AI Overviews and LLM responses, ensuring your business is cited as an authoritative source when potential clients ask AI tools about financial topics.
