Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Our SEO engagement with the 180 Marketing team is built on a full-stack approach. It started with a detailed audit, tech fixes, and strategic planning, then those learnings drove improvements in site structure and page-level optimization. 

From there, 180 Marketing's team created targeted content - blog posts, product detail pages, and category descriptions - to answer customer questions and support conversion, while running steady outreach to acquire quality links.

On biweekly calls, my 180 Marketing Project Manger and I dig into the numbers - rankings, traffic, and revenue - and use that data to refine priorities, address what’s working, and keep momentum strong.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We've seen meaningful lifts everywhere: high-priority keywords moved up from page three or four to top spots, and Organic Shopping revenue jumped 340x (and still climbing). We’re now at 127 top-three ranking terms and have kept up strong momentum with high-value keywords pushing into or holding top ten positions. Pet-friendly and washable searches are driving wins as well. On top of that, the 180 Marketing team was essential in supporting a seamless platform migration from our custom setup to Shopify Plus, ensuring the new site launched with a strong SEO foundation.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

180’s project management has been outstanding. Ralph, our project manager, always brings deep SEO knowledge, prompt replies, and genuine flexibility when our priorities shift. He does his own research to keep us ahead on trends, makes himself available whenever we need, and is just great to work with. Both Andy and Jeff are hands-on and care deeply about client success. Everyone on the team goes the extra mile and keeps the process smooth and transparent. Having worked with other SEO shops in my agency days, 180 stands out for their responsiveness, commitment, and technical skill, especially with leading the way on AI-led search and adapting strategy for evolving platforms (Google AI, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and more). The insights and strategic thinking they provide always make us feel confident we’re in the best hands.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

When we started working with 180 marketing, we were ranking well compared to many of our competitors, but there was still room for improvement.

In particular, we wanted to boost organic revenue, address keyword cannibalization issues, fix accessibility issues, and build quality links.

180 executed on all of these goals in a precise and timely manner. In the first two weeks, they optimized SEO blogs, and a host of images that needed optimization. Throughout the time working with 180, they optimized product pages, content pages, and built quality links that improved our keyword rankings across the board, while solving difficult keyword cannibalization problems that we were having.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Over the time we worked with 180, our keyword rankings inproved massively:

• Many of our top keywords went from ranking 10-20 to ranking in the top 5.
• They solved critical keyword cannibalization issues which were preventing our websites home page from ranking as well as it should.
• Our organic revenue grew from ~20% to over 25%.
• By the end of our contract, our monthly revenue had grown +80% YoY.
• The number of keywords ranking 1-3 across roughly doubled over the 6 month contract.
• 180 built 40+ quality links.
• We saw a 30-50% YoY increase in total organic monthly users.
• We saw a 5x increase in total clicks to key product pages we wanted to target.
• We saw a consistent increase in non-branded search and website traffic over the course of our contract.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Communication with the 180 Team was amazing throughout our time working with them (thank you Zoe!). Our project manager clearly communicated deliverable timing, deliverables were completed on time and implemented promptly following review and approval from our team. The 180 team made themselves aailable whenever we needed to hop on a call short-notice, and they were able to quickly address any urgent issues we encountered.

What was your primary form of communication with 180 Marketing?

• Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Our company operates in a very specific niche of an agricultural/industrial industry. The 180 team was able to get up to speed very quickly when it came to learning the industry jargon and effectively implementing it in deliverables.

We were also very impressed with how responsive and flexible their team was throughout the course of our contract. Commnication and project management was top notch!

Are there any areas for improvement or something 180 Marketing could have done differently?

No major issues. Given the industry that we are in, there was a bit of a learning curve for their team to learn the techincal language around our products, but they were very quick to adjust once we gave our feedback.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We have been working with 180Marketing since early 2020.  They were hired to help us improve our SEO and white-hat link building.  Initially they did a complete evaluation of our website, preimarily focusing on technical issues since we have been online since 1999 and have managed our own SEO internally.  Then, on an on-going basis, they were retained to help drive quality content and links to the website.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Yes, monthly reports are provided showing link quality and impact.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Yes, they delivered around the same time each month without any issues.

What was your primary form of communication with 180 Marketing?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We are a small company.  In the past, we tried a few SEO companies that were highly rated. However, because of our size, they would assign a junior person to our account. By junior, very often it was the person's first or second assignment, so they would start with the same basic script (page titles, meta descriptions, etc.).  Our in-house staff was far more knoledgable so it was simply a waste of money.  

Besides the referrel, we were attracted to 180 Marketing since it too is a small company and their owner led all of the initial reviews, analysis and discussions.

Are there any areas for improvement or something 180 Marketing could have done differently?

While I continue to use and trust them, they have not provided any real substanative recommendations in quite a while.  What they are doing is fine and helpful, but I would like to see a bit more creativity.

Once engaged with 180 Marketing, I met with Andy, and subsequently with Adolfo who managed our account. All three of them were highly professional and a delight to work with. I have little technical knowledge myself, and they were always able to explain things to me in a way I understood. The culture at this company is great too. They all worked really well together and stayed on top of their industry knowledge, which was forever changing.

ECOM CPA engaged 180 Marketing at a time when lead flow was diminishing and competition was rising. We knew we needed to create a new website that converted more leads for the traffic that did hit the site, and that we needed to improve our overall standing on Google. We hired 180 Marketing to help optimize the content on the new site so that the first Google crawl post launch impressed them. 

During the build phase of the site 180 Marketing worked on backlinking and pushing out content to increase our domain rating, which more than doubled before even launching the new site. Once the new site was live, we had assistance in optimizing the back end of the site.

A website that has an above average SEO rating, doubled our domain authority, increased traffic, cleaned up our site structure, educated us on what we need to do better.
