From Google rank 82. to rank 6-9: our half-year SEO sprint”

We started working with a client back in December 2024. Their website, for their target keyword (“generáltervezés” in Hungarian) was sitting at position 82 on Google. Practically invisible.

Their niche was tight, competition moderate, and budgets modest. We had a clear goal: get them onto page 1 (ideally top 10) organically.

Here’s the strategy we rolled out: 1. Landing page rebuild: A dedicated URL with the keyword in the slug, SEO-friendly H1/H2 tags, optimized meta, internal links. 

2. Content engine: We produced 24+ blog posts targeting adjacent keywords and building topical authority for the main term.  3. Link profile uplift: Over six months we placed 40+ high-quality external backlinks (not link farms, but relevant, high-DA sites) pointing to the site.  

The result? By May-June 2025 the client was ranking between #6 and #9 for the main term.
 Impressions for that keyword alone jumped from 20 (previous 6 months) to 521 (last 6 months) — roughly a 2,500% increase. 

Key takeaway: A seemingly “low-traffic” niche still allowed for dramatic visibility gains if the strategy is strict, consistent and focused.

Got other case studies like this? I’d love to hear them. Also happy to discuss how you handle the “top of funnel” when traffic is shallow but conversion value high.

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

GMB territory inching with service company

Seeking advice on extending our service area, while our main GMB profile states SD County, we only rank in our neighborhood but we have the team to service much more jobs. The boss wants us to get addresses in these hot territories within the county and use call rail numbers to validate the GMB profile. Question: Does this still work? Will it catch up with us? OR is there a better way to rank in a territory for a service.
