We call it digital growth marketing, and it’s as beautifully simple and elegant as it sounds. We put brands in the right place at the right time in front of the right people in the digital marketplace.
We work with ambitious clients who want to be industry leaders online but struggle to get found ahead of the competition. We help you to be seen in the search results and get found by the people that matter to you. So that you achieve market leadership and get the results you deserve.
We are a leading digital marketing agency made up of strategists, analysts and creatives. And with over a decade of experience, we have built a reputation for delivering success online.
Whilst other agencies tire themselves out in a bizarre competition of who can shout the loudest, we know that it’s a quiet understanding of how to reach the people who matter that pays dividends.
Zelst was established in 2005 by Peter Van Zelst. Having spent the previous six years developing a successful online florist business, Peter felt that the time had come to hang up his gardening gloves and share his knowledge with other businesses.
Since then, Zelst has continued to develop and grow into a successful digital marketing agency. We’re a friendly, highly talented and creative team who share a passion for digital and making our clients happy.

Through a carefully developed and targeted integrated search and content campaign, we grew organic search traffic by 54.87% and increased visibility by 196.99% in their chosen legal service areas This fed into a much stronger organic footprint and number 1 rankings in their most competitive terms.

Their team embodies professionalism while maintaining a friendly and approachable demeanour, which has made collaborating on numerous projects both productive and enjoyable. From project inception to completion, their communication has been exemplary—always clear, timely, and proactive.

I highly recommend Zelst to anyone seeking a professional partner who delivers outstanding results with a personal touch.
We've been working with Zelst for a little over a year on various projects and both ourselves and our clients have reported extremely strong outcomes as a result of their work. They are helpful, consultative, proactive and conscientious - and, more important than any of that, their SEO work is highly effective. I can't recommend Peter and the team highly enough.
We had a great experience working with Zelst Ltd in 2023. Their expertise and strategic approach significantly enhanced our online presence. The team carefully monitored and then helped us to improve our website and played a crucial role in setting up our Google Business account, ensuring our business information is easily accessible to potential customers. Additionally, their efforts in crafting engaging and impactful LinkedIn posts have contributed to our brand visibility and audience engagement. The level of professionalism, attention to detail, and proactive communication exhibited by Zelst Ltd throughout the process was commendable. We highly recommend their services for anyone looking to elevate their digital marketing efforts.
We have worked with the Zelst team on our various projects designed to improve our rankings in search, keyword performance, ROI within Google Ads and shopping feeds. We have found that they continually search for every opportunity to improve our standings within our very competitive market. We can focus on the day to day running of our business needs, whilst knowing they are quietly achieving fantastic results that help us achieve our marketing goals.
