THE CHALLENGE

The Med Spa space has become increasingly saturated over the last decade. With that being said, competition has never been higher. With Lash & CO looking to be an industry leader, visibility is everything. Part of their growth model is to have new clients but also new students.

One location is particular was struggling with organic visibility and needed a leg up on the competition.

Our research revealed the size of the challenge, including:

  • The ranked will for Dearborn but not in Detroit which is only a few minutes away and holding all the search volume and demand.
  • Monthly organic traffic sometimes was in the single digits.
  • Little to no on page optimization.
  • There was no visibility for their marquee keywords such as “Esthetician Training Detroit” and “Lash Certification Courses Michigan”

In other words, they were not reaching a significant portion of their potential client base.

THE STRATEGY

Firestarter developed a strategy geared towards targeting better keywords, driving traffic to the website, and generating leads.
01

Keyword Targeting

There was almost no targeting for Detroit on the Dearborn location, so Firestarter SEO did an in-depth analysis on Detroit keywords.

02

On-Page Optimization

With no optimization for Detroit on the page, there was no way for Google to know that we wanted to rank for that keyword. Firestarter used one of their may tools to draw comparisons between first page results and their current page. We then even the playing field and strategically added keywords, headings and word count that gave Google what they need but not sacrificing brand messaging or voice.

03

Link Building

Firestarter SEO immediately began creating links to point to the Dearborn page to send more signals to Google that they wanted to rank for Detroit keywords as well.

THE RESULTS

Our strategy generated results that changed the course of Voyagers business – with massive increases in every key metric.
01

1253 INCREASE IN RANKINGS
