SEO Case Study Solihull: From page 6 to Ranking on page 1
Background
We built adsseosolihull.com to show what’s possible with smart, modern, local SEO – even with only 3 pages.
The goal was to rank on page 1 for “SEO Agency Solihull”, attract real local business owners, and prove that our system works.
The Challenge
Like most new sites, we started with:
- Zero visibility
- Zero Leads
- And stuck on page 14 for our target keyword
Most websites never recover from that. But we had a system – and now we’ve got proof that it works.
Our Local SEO Strategy
We used the same approach we deliver for our clients – here’s what works:
Google Business Profile Optimisation
We optimised our listing for Solihull, added services, images, and got results. This helped build immediate trust.
Focused Keyword Targeting
We started by targeting 1 keyword only: “SEO Agency Solihull” – to dominate 1 niche and not dilute our efforts.
Simple Site Structure
Only 3 pages for now, but we’ll structure the site like a pyramid. Each page will be linked logically to the next, building authority around our topic of SEO.
Schema Markup
We added local business schema so Google could clearly understand who we are and what we do.
Fast, Mobile Friendly Design
The site loads fast and looks good on phones (in my opinion) – this is key for rankings and user experience.
Local Citations
We built consistent citations across top industry directories to boost local trust signals.
Case Study Content
We documented the real process (as we’re doing with this case study) to show evidence – not opinions.
High Quality Backlinks
We earned links from relevant, high-authority sites to strengthen our domain authority.
Technical SEO Fixes
Using Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, and Google Search Console, we removed crawl issues and optimised for performance.
Google Reviews
We gathered real reviews from real people. These help searchers trust and click on our site – this helps boost rankings even more.
