What needed to be fixed

The website had been hit by a Google algorithm update and lost nearly 40% of its traffic. Rankings dropped, organic visibility weakened, and the business needed a structured SEO recovery plan to rebuild trust with search engines and restore lead-generating performance.

  • Rankings dropped after a Google algorithm update.
  • Organic traffic declined by almost 40%.
  • Key local service keywords needed to be recovered.
  • The site required ongoing ranking and traffic improvements.

How we approached the recovery

The campaign focused on analysing current SEO standards, strengthening site quality, and improving local search relevance. The goal was not only to recover lost traffic but to create continued ranking growth across the business’s major garage door keywords.

  • Reviewed and improved current SEO standards site-wide.
  • Focused on recovery of organic traffic lost to the update.
  • Optimised pages around key service and location terms.
  • Built a foundation for continued ranking improvements.
