"I'm busier than ever, with so many more enquiries coming through."
That line from Jo at SOS Dogs did not come from an ad campaign. It came from doing everything right from the start.
When Jo came to us in July, her old site's hosting was about to expire and 16 of her search terms sat beyond position 50 on Google. Invisible.
So we built the foundations properly, in order:
01 Rescued the domain and kept her email running through the hosting change
02 Rewrote every page around what Brisbane dog owners actually search for
03 Refreshed the logo
04 Photography and copywriting that sound like Jo, not a template
05 Built the site so Jo can update it herself and sell from her own shop
06 SEO and AI search foundations built in: schema, titles, FAQs, redirects from every old URL
07 Analytics set up from day one, so we could see what happened next
What happened next: 100/100 for SEO on launch day. Google re-indexed the site within two weeks. And today SOS Dogs sits on page one, and top of the map, for puppy consultation searches in Brisbane. Then there is Jo's inbox.
Get the foundations right and the results follow. Skip them and no amount of marketing spend fixes it.
