    1The Challenge

    Our agency partner brought us in as part of a larger marketing strategy that included a full website launch, organic SEO, search ads, and social advertising. The client needed to establish organic visibility from scratch after a complete website rebuild in the competitive recreational boating industry.

    • Brand new website with no existing organic authority or indexed pages
    • Competitive marine industry with established local players
    • Four distinct geographic locations requiring localized SEO strategies
    • Starting from -80% year-over-year performance baseline in January
    • Required seamless white-label execution maintaining agency partner relationships

    2Our Approach

    We immediately conducted a historical audit using the Wayback Machine to identify legacy URLs, then implemented a full 301 redirect strategy to prevent traffic loss. Our comprehensive approach involved technical SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, backlink building, and full white-label support that maintained seamless client relationships through custom reporting and live video follow-ups.

    • Established a 40-keyword strategy across four geographic locations
    • Performed full schema markup implementation including Open Graph, Twitter cards, and service-level schema
    • Completed data aggregator submissions and set up Google Business Profile listings with our proprietary '120% optimization' methodology
    • Executed technical SEO clean-up including crawl errors, mobile usability, and sitemap/robots.txt optimization
    • Partnered with the existing content team to align new content with keyword mapping and service targets
    • Initiated guest posting campaigns and contextual link insertions for authority building
    • Delivered all reporting via white-label video walkthroughs and GPT-generated summaries

    3The Results

    The transformation was nothing short of extraordinary. From a challenging start in January with -80% performance, we achieved +584% growth by October across all organic channels. We secured multiple #1-#3 rankings for core terms and achieved high local visibility across Google Maps.

    • 444% year-over-year increase in organic sessions by December 2025
    • 426% year-over-year traffic growth from Google search specifically
    • Growth trajectory from -80% in January to +584% by October
    • Multiple #1-#3 rankings secured for core service terms
    • High local visibility across Google Maps for all four target locations
    • Consistent month-over-month growth maintained across 8 SEO cycles
