The On-Site SEO Crisis

UrbanGadget’s $8M website suffered from:
✔ Quality products with 4.8-star average reviews
✔ Strong brand recognition in their metro areas
❌ Only 6% of 12,000 product pages indexed
❌ Duplicate content penalties across color/size variants
❌ Zero visibility for “best ” searches

Our mission: Make Google fall in love with every page.

  • Product Page Reinvention: “Why This Blender Outperforms Vitamix for Iced Drinks”
  • Restructured categories from “by feature” → “by user need”
