Camelot Moving and Storage

Overview

Camelot Movers is a family-owned moving and storage business based in Santa Clarita, California. They have been in this business for more than three decades, and have served customers throughout the contiguous US. The client wanted to migrate from the WordPress platform to Squarespace. They wanted us to help with the redirects, create and optimize their Google Business Profile (GBP) and other business profiles, grow traffic, and improve the visibility of their brand.

Problem

Camelotmovers.com has experienced growing organic traffic over the years. However, the brand’s GBP listing was not contributing much to organic traffic. Additionally, the listing was ranking for a lot of less relevant keywords on Google Maps, nothing that was driving meaningful qualified traffic. To improve brand visibility, the client hoped to focus on local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) strategies. Our team had to optimize the company’s Google Business Profile so customers could find them in their local searches. Our audit also showed that the company name was appearing as Camelot Movers in some business profiles and Camelot Moving and Storage in others. We had to make the profiles consistent and implemented strategies to improve website traffic.

Solution

We identified relevant keywords, and included these in the business profile listing. As rankings and impressions improved and activity on the listing increased, our team encouraged the client to respond to customers’ queries quickly. Keeping a high response rate will contribute to improved ranking positions for a GBP listing. We also added and updated several listings for Camelot Movers on a variety of other business profile sites to further increase the brand’s citation score.

Camelot Moving & Storage Google Business Profile

Optimizing Google Business Profile

Our team reviewed the client’s GBP. We updated their business information including the office and delivery hours. Our team optimized the listing description and added the brand’s products and services. We also added UTM codes to URLs to better analyze the website’s traffic. These codes inform the brand on what source, medium, and campaign is specifically driving conversions and provides more insightful marketing metrics. We added a Question and Answer section in the GBP listing. Website users can get answers quickly directly from the GBP profile.

Optimizing Bing Business Listing

The brand had an existing Bing Business listing with a different business name. Our team updated the company name from Camelot Movers to Camelot Moving and Storage. We then added further optimizations to the Bing listing including office opening hours, delivery hours, URL with UTM parameters, service areas, logo and social media profiles.

Optimizing Yelp Listing

The brand’s Yelp Listing profile needed optimization as well. We started with updating the business name and details. Banner images were added, products and services added, and other business highlights optimized.

Web Development Updates

The client moved from a WordPress website to a Squarespace website. After the migration, the Squarespace XML sitemap contained several duplicate URLs and tag pages. Our developers removed the duplicate URLs and tag pages from the new website, and added redirects. We added Title Tags and Meta Descriptions to all pages. We also created and implemented an HTML sitemap to further increase the visibility of the website in search engines, and implemented page speed improvements strategies.
