Common problem
FCA compliance gaps
Missing risk warnings, incorrect disclaimer wording, or absent regulatory notices create serious compliance exposure for FCA-authorised firms.
Common problem
Services are vague
Visitors can't tell whether you cover DB pension transfers, later-life planning, or SME corporate advice, so they enquire elsewhere.
Common problem
Invisible in local search
"Financial advisor London" and "pension advice [borough]" are high-intent searches. Most IFA sites don't appear for them.
Common problem
No clear conversion path
A phone number buried in the footer is not a lead generation strategy. Every visit without a conversion is revenue left on the table.

(FAQ)
Questions from financial advisors
about their websites.
How do you handle FCA compliance on a financial advisor website?
We build FCA-compliant risk warnings, regulatory status notices (FCA registration number, authorised and regulated by), disclaimer text, and price transparency information as standard on every IFA website. We work from your compliance team's requirements and flag anything that appears non-compliant on your current site during the pre-build audit. Note: we are not FCA compliance consultants, we implement the text you provide, and recommend you review final copy with your compliance officer.
Can you help us rank for "financial advisor" searches?
Yes. On-page SEO is built into every page, keyword-optimised headings, meta titles, LocalBusiness schema, and internal linking. We also build location-specific pages for the boroughs or towns you serve, and align your Google Business Profile. For more competitive terms, we offer an optional content and link-building SEO retainer.
What booking system do you recommend for financial advisors?
Calendly Pro and Acuity Scheduling both work well for IFA websites, they allow you to set availability, ask pre-qualification questions, and confirm appointments automatically. For firms using Intelligent Office (Intelliflo), we can integrate the scheduling module from your back-office instead.
Should our website mention specific returns or investment performance?
No. FCA regulations prohibit performance marketing claims that imply past returns are indicative of future performance. We ensure all performance references include appropriate past performance disclaimers, and we work with you to frame client outcomes in compliant language.
How much does a financial advisor website cost?
A professional IFA website with service pages, adviser profiles, and booking integration typically costs £3,500–£9,000. A larger firm with specialist service pages, case studies, and blog infrastructure typically costs £9,000–£18,000. Flat written quote after discovery call.
Can you integrate VouchedFor or Trustpilot reviews?
Yes. VouchedFor and Trustpilot widgets can be embedded on your homepage, service pages, and adviser profiles, showing live review scores and recent testimonials as social proof. We also structure review markup (AggregateRating schema) so your star rating appears in Google search results.
