KML Worktops went from 0 first-page keywords and ~300 monthly clicks to 33 first-page rankings, 988 clicks, 246,366 impressions, nearly 4,400 organic sessions per quarter, and a Domain Authority of 29 — with a 1.73× quarterly growth rate that beat the original target.

About the Client

KML Worktops came to us with clear growth potential but a limited search footprint. Core service and category keywords weren't ranking on Google's first page, organic traffic was flat, and domain authority sat at just 16. The brand needed more than tactical SEO fixes — it needed a complete growth framework that could rebuild rankings, authority, local visibility, and AI-era discoverability simultaneously. Over a 6-month campaign, we built that framework across eight pillars: service page optimization, internal linking, UI/UX refinement, product category expansion, competitor-led content, authority building, London-focused local SEO, and AI search optimization. The results were measurable, consistent, and compounding across every metric we tracked: 0 → 33 keywords ranking on Google's first page Organic Search sessions: 2,344 → 4,381 — a +86.9% quarterly lift (Q4 2025 → Q1 2026) Monthly sessions: 825 → 1,425 — +72.7% in just 4 months Clicks: ~300 → 988 — ~3.3× growth Impressions: ~70,000 → 246,366 — ~3.5× growth Domain Authority: 16 → 29 in 4–5 months Engagement Rate: 49.94% on organic traffic 5.32 events per session on organic search 82 key events driven by organic search in Q1 2026 The campaign delivered a 1.73× quarterly growth rate — well above the 1.5× target communicated to management at the start of the engagement.

The Objective

Build a complete SEO growth framework that could rebuild rankings, authority, local visibility, and AI-era discoverability simultaneously.

Our Solution

We built a multi-layered SEO strategy across eight connected pillars — each one reinforcing the others.

The Challenge

At the start of the project, KML Worktops had real growth potential — but its SEO foundation was working against it.

Low Keyword Rankings

Core service and category keywords were not ranking on the first page of Google.

Weak Service Page SEO

Main service pages were under-optimized for search intent.

Poor Internal Linking

Internal linking was weak, limiting authority flow across the site.

Homepage UX Issues

Homepage UX and structure needed refinement.

Content Strategy

Strategy Points

  • Service Page Optimization: Rebuilt the core service pages to improve keyword targeting, search intent alignment, and conversion readiness. Refined titles, metadata, headings, content structure, and on-page keyword placement so primary commercial queries had pages worth ranking.
  • Internal Linking Architecture: Strengthened the links between homepage, service pages, category pages, product pages, blogs, and commercial landing pages so authority and relevance could flow across the whole site — not just sit on the homepage.
  • Homepage UI/UX Refinement: Improved the homepage experience for both users and search engines — cleaner content presentation, better hierarchy, stronger category discovery paths, and tighter alignment between UX and SEO.
  • Product and Category Expansion: Uploaded new product categories and enhanced product sections to expand keyword relevance, deepen category coverage, and give service pages more connected content to draw authority from.
  • Competitor-Led Content Strategy: Analyzed competitors' top-performing informational content and published blogs, educational articles, and topic clusters that captured the same traffic — turning informational search demand into a real growth channel.
  • Authority Building: Ran a focused backlink program combining guest posting, high-authority placements, and link profile improvements. Domain Authority moved from 16 to 29 in 4–5 months.
  • London Local SEO: Optimized the Google Business Profile with consistent posting (~7–8 posts per month), encouraged genuine customer reviews, updated product listings regularly, and uploaded fresh photos to strengthen local relevance signals.
  • AI Search Optimization: Made the site ready for AI-driven discovery — allowed AI bots in robots.txt, improved crawl-friendliness, created prompt-aligned content, strengthened FAQ and featured snippet opportunities, and mapped content to the likely questions users were asking LLMs.
