SEO Case Study #2

Standfast Security Systems is one of the largest installers and maintainers of commercial and domestic security systems in Bristol and the South West with over 7000 customers.

As an ambitious company it is always seeing to grow by winning new customers.    Before working with WSI, Standfast had recently spent 12 months developing a new stylish and informative website that it was pleased with. 

Challenges and Goals

Standfast wanted to make its new website work to attract new customers to request it’s offer of a free security survey within a 50 mile radius of Bristol.

The Solution

WSI took over the new website and added a content management system so that it could be easily edited.   Google Analytics was added to the site so that how it was being used could be measured. 

Traffic was initially generated by a Google Pay Per Click advertising campaign which generated some initial traffic and helped identify which keywords worked best.  Simultaneously, a search engine optimisation campaign was started which involved building high quality links to the site and the copywriting and addition of new pages of content to the website each month.

Regular improvements were made to the website to increase the conversion rate of visitors into enquirers.

Results

Traffic to the website is now significantly higher thanks to the high search engine ranking obtained for a wide range of relevant keywords.  A high majority of visitors are now coming from searchers who have not heard of Standfast before.  

This is producing a regular stream of high quality enquiries.

This has been so successful that the Google Pay Per Click advertising campaign has now been turned off and the budget re-deployed on other marketing activities.

So what does the client think?

'We were looking to continue to grow our business through effective use of the Internet and WSI has provided just that.   Now if we "Google" any of our keywords related to alarms in Bristol and Bath we are always found.  Normally in the top half of Page One - often in the top 3 spots. 

'As part of the service, WSI provides a regular detailed  review of our website analytics performance and is always looking for ways to make the website generate more leads.  We've been very pleased with the service from WSI.'
