Issue → Action → Result
This is the core story of the engagement: each visibility problem, matched to the work performed, matched to the measurable outcome.
| Issue | Action Taken | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Weak organic visibility: average position 30 and 0.2% CTR on core landscaping search terms. | Targeted on-page and technical SEO focused on commercial landscaping maintenance and installation keywords. | 684 organic clicks and 304K impressions generated over 6 months, despite the average position still sitting around 30, showing meaningful headroom for further gains as rankings continue to improve. |
| Inconsistent local map rankings, dropping to position 6–20 outside the immediate service radius. | Ongoing GBP optimization and local SEO management to strengthen map-pack visibility across the full service area. | Rank-tracking grids show #1–#2 local pack rankings concentrated across the core service area for “commercial landscaping near me” and “commercial landscape installation near me.” |
| GBP listing is underused as a lead-generation channel. | Active, ongoing management of the Google Business Profile to convert visibility into direct customer actions. | 680 total profile interactions, including 365 phone calls and 536 direction requests, in 6 months. |
| Risk of technical issues undermining SEO and GBP gains. | Ongoing website maintenance to keep the site functioning as a reliable landing point for incoming traffic. | 102 website clicks delivered directly from the Google Business Profile, supporting the traffic generated by the SEO and GBP work. |
