Who we are and where we come from

evolv. is a search-first digital consultancy founded by James Deverick — a technical SEO and organic growth specialist with over 15 years of experience driving results for global brands and growth-stage startups.
Built on the belief that search should be strategic, ethical and fast-moving, Evolv helps businesses improve visibility across both traditional and generative search platforms. We operate with a lean, collaborative model that prioritises outcomes over bloated deliverables.
We’ve delivered search strategy and technical SEO for brands across a wide range of industries, including:
- Global eCommerce (Nike, Lazada, Jewson)
- SaaS and B2B technology
- B2C product and services
- Local and regional businesses
Whether we’re helping a multinational scale its search performance or working with a local team to get found online, our goal is the same: to create durable, measurable growth through search.
At Evolv, we don’t just keep up with the search landscape — we help shape it.
Our Core Values
“evolv.’s vision is to lead the charge in SEO innovation. We are actively moving beyond conventional methodologies and reducing reliance on costly third-party tools. Our commitment is to deliver higher quality, more impactful results with greater efficiency, defining the future of search optimization.”
How we got here
We didn’t get here alone.
We have been fortunate to work across many different verticals in our SEO journey, building relationships with key stakeholders that we still speak to after all these years.
We’re built on our client relationships, and truthfully, without them, we wouldn’t be here to help new and existing clients.
When you work with us, you’re working with people that care about what they do and who they work with. Delivering success is more than numbers on a chart – we’re here to make your teams look great and to elevate them further.
SEO and generative search is an ever evolving landscape and we invite you to join us on the journey.
