Who Was the Client?

A small business seeking better online visibility through local SEO, national SEO, and Google Ads on a controlled budget.

What Was the Challenge?

The business needed search growth but could not afford wasted clicks or months of unfocused SEO activity. Website content needed optimization, rankings needed movement, and Google Ads had to stay tight.

What Was the Strategy?

We started with an SEO audit and keyword map, then grouped terms by local, national, and paid-search intent. Website content was updated around priority terms while Google Ads campaigns were structured around the highest-intent searches.

What Were the Results?

  • Local and national SEO priorities clarified
  • Google Ads spend focused on high-intent keyword groups
  • Website content updated from the same search map
  • Reporting aligned around traffic, rankings, and qualified enquiries

Impact Metrics

  • 32% reduction in Google Ads cost per lead
  • 49% increase in organic enquiries
  • 18 target keywords improved across local and national SEO
  • 24% higher landing-page conversion rate

Why Did This Work?

SEO and Google Ads work better together when paid search validates demand and SEO improves the long-term cost structure.
