How I'd Choose, Honestly
Straight: for an in-person Yorkshire team, The SEO Works and Bobble Digital are the proper local operations. For the strongest remote authority system — that's ours, checkable record and all.
What I'd Do With a Leeds Business
My honest Leeds play: own the area-plus-service term first, then go where the city's competitors don't — the Yorkshire regional terms and the AI answer layer, both softer than they should be. I'd put budget into earned Yorkshire authority over polish, check monthly who the assistants recommend for my terms, and treat the city-wide head terms as a year-two campaign funded by year-one's enquiries. Patient sequencing beats heroic spending here.
Conclusion
My honest seo agency leeds answer: local for proximity, us for authority — judge the evidence.
