Challenge

  • Searcher Behavior Misalignment: Thousands of monthly searches for "Instagram growth" weren't translating into meaningful actions on the microsites.
  • Low Conversion Rates: Visitors were not converting into leads or clients despite consistent traffic.
  • Inefficient Ad Spend: Paid campaigns weren't yielding a desirable return on investment.
