01 · Challenge

Strong service, quiet search.

Lansdowne Financial is a fast-growing firm offering corporate advisory and resident director services. The quality of advice was never in question — but the website wasn't pulling its weight as a growth channel.

In a competitive B2B finance niche, rankings on high-value industry keywords were limited, lead generation was inconsistent and the existing digital programme couldn't show a clear return. They came to us with a single brief: turn the website into a revenue engine.

02 · Approach

An SEO roadmap built for B2B finance — fast wins plus long compounding.

Financial services SEO doesn't reward shortcuts — but it does reward depth. We mapped a strategy that earned quick rankings on the high-intent terms Lansdowne's buyers were already searching, then layered in the topical authority that would compound the wins quarter after quarter.

Four workstreams ran together, every one of them anchored to a single metric: qualified leads at a measurable cost.

Audit and keyword targeting

Identified untapped, high-intent keywords aligned with Lansdowne's core offerings — then reworked landing pages to boost discoverability and rankings.

Content strategy

Created targeted service pages and authoritative thought-leadership content to build topical authority and drive qualified traffic from the right buyers.

Technical SEO fixes

Resolved crawl errors, lifted mobile experience and rebuilt site structure so every page Lansdowne published had the foundation to rank.

Lead funnel optimisation

Streamlined conversion paths and implemented analytics to track lead generation with precision — every enquiry tied to its keyword, page and cost.

03 · The result

219 new customers, 265% ROI, and a 43% lift in traffic.

Within six months, Lansdowne Financial had acquired 219 new customers directly from SEO traffic — at a 265% return on investment. Website traffic climbed 43% year on year, building a pipeline the team can now forecast with confidence.

Twenty key industry keywords reached page one of Google in the first three months, accelerating discovery in a niche that typically takes a year to crack.
