At Cape Business Online, we don’t just build websites or run ads — we build digital foundations that drive growth. Since 2013, we’ve helped businesses across South Africa generate more leads, more traffic, and more visibility online — powered by the one thing that truly makes digital marketing work: strategy.
We started with a single goal: to make online visibility simple, affordable, and effective for small to medium-sized businesses. What began as a local online advertising platform quickly evolved into a full-service digital agency, offering SEO, web design, paid media, and social media marketing with one consistent focus: results.

What makes us different?
We’re not generalists. We’re a team of specialists with deep roots in SEO-first thinking — and that influences everything we do. From the way we structure a website to the ad copy we write, we’re always asking: how will this help your business get found, and convert?
We’re also not in the business of chasing likes or rankings for the sake of them. We chase qualified leads, commercial outcomes, and long-term client success. That’s why so many of our clients have stayed with us for 5, even 10+ years.
What sets us apart:
- SEO is in everything we do — from websites to ads to social posts
- We work with one client per industry, because there’s only one page-one ranking spot
- We speak your language — straightforward advice, no jargon
- We stay ahead of the curve, investing in training, tools, and tech
- We care about results, and we prove them with every report
We are the only digital marketing company that offers our customers access to affordable online directory advertising. While our advertising solutions are mostly targeted at the audience of the Western Cape, our web design and SEO offerings are tailored for businesses in any location.
