Case Study: Tropical Plant Rentals
How an Environmental Service Company Blossomed with TheOnlineCo’s Digital Marketing Expertise
Imagine walking into an office, lush with greenery and radiating freshness. Now imagine helping the company that creates these green havens flourish online. When the management team of Tropical Plant Rentals, a veteran environmental service company with an esteemed history spanning over four decades realised their digital growth had stagnated, they knew it was time for a change.
However, the transition wasn’t so simple. Tropical Plant Rentals had relied on a close acquaintance for their SEO needs, but this alliance hadn’t kept pace with their burgeoning aspirations. With an illustrious clientele of over 2,500 spread across major states, capital cities, and towns in Australia, the company needed to sprout wings in the digital world.
They sought a catalyst for transformation, and that’s when they stumbled upon TheOnlineCo. It was as if the stars had aligned, TheOnlineCo was the first link they saw in their search results, and a seed was planted.
SEO and Website Development
To address this issue, we optimised Tropical Plant Rentals’ website by improving its load speed and clearing out irrelevant content. We also did keyword mapping and SILO site process and created a 12-month rollout plan and decided to opt for the highest plan for three months, which the client has continued since then. The focus was on optimising not only individual franchise locations but also the entire website and distributing leads to the right franchisee.
We also optimised the Tropical Plant Rental’s website’s local site pages, as 75% of their turns are local turns for plant hire. User experience was negative, so we gave the site a facelift over time, improving the UX and load speed. The company’s website traffic has increased, and the leads are more consistent in a highly competitive space. We have paid attention to competitors and worked to improve the relevant traffic by removing content from the webpage that would not result in leads.
As a result, we’ve replaced irrelevant traffic with hot leads, resulting in a 36% increase in traffic year-over-year.
