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

I worked with Peter and the Startup Voyager team for over a year to grow GoFractional's organic search traffic from zero to becoming our primary source of inbound traffic. Peter's team took a strategic, data-driven approach to SEO by building out a comprehensive keyword strategy. This strategy focused on identifying keywords with high search volume that we could realistically rank for while also targeting phrases that our potential customers were searching for—leading to higher conversion rates.

The process was incredibly streamlined. Startup Voyager produced content outlines, drafts, and production-ready blog posts that were all tracked in a project management tool for full transparency. Their team handled everything from topic research to final content publication, ensuring that each piece was optimized for search engines. Thanks to their efforts, we now have several blog posts ranking #1 on Google for important keywords in our niche, which has had a tremendous impact on our business.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The measurable outcomes from the project were impressive. Over the course of working with Startup Voyager, we went from having zero organic search traffic to making it our primary source of inbound leads. Some of the key metrics that demonstrate success include:

• Keyword Rankings: Several blog posts now rank #1 on Google for important search terms in our niche.
• Organic Traffic Growth: Organic search became the main source of traffic for GoFractional.com accounting for nearly 50% of traffic
• Lead Generation: The increase in targeted organic traffic has directly translated into more qualified leads for our business and 100% growth in revenue
• These measurable outcomes had a direct impact on our bottom line, contributing to business growth and making SEO a core part of our marketing strategy.

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

Startup Voyager's project management was highly organized and efficient. They used a project management tool to track every step of the process, from content outlines and drafts to final production-ready blog posts. This gave us full visibility into the progress of each deliverable and ensured everything stayed on track.

In terms of timelines, they consistently delivered items on time and sometimes even ahead of schedule. If we had any changes or additional needs, they were quick to respond and adapt their approach, showing great flexibility. Communication was seamless, with regular updates and prompt responses to any questions or feedback. 

Overall, their approach to project management made the entire process smooth and hassle-free.

What was your primary form of communication with Startup Voyager?

Virtual Meeting

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

What impresses me most about Startup Voyager is their deep understanding of SEO and their ability to craft a strategy that aligned perfectly with our business goals. They didn’t just focus on driving traffic—they focused on attracting the right kind of traffic. Their emphasis on finding rankable keywords with high search volume and a strong potential for customer conversion made a huge difference for us.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Startup Voyager could have done differently?

One area where we faced some challenges was due to our custom-built site with unique technology. This made it a bit more difficult for Startup Voyager to implement certain SEO strategies directly, and some of the work required collaboration with our engineering team. 

That said, this issue was specific to our platform, and I don’t think it would be a problem for companies using more standard platforms like WordPress or Webflow. Despite this, Startup Voyager remained flexible and worked closely with our team to ensure everything was optimized effectively.

We continue to rank in Google's top 10 for several competitive keywords related to wine, wine investing, whiskey investing, and alternative investing in general, beating several high-authority finance sites.

How did Startup Voyager perform from a project management standpoint?

Startup Voyager collaborated with us on our internal project management tool (Notion) for blog submissions. We could clearly see which ones were in progress and which ones were submitted and published. Depending on the month's budget, they helped us publish 8–15 articles a month — all delivered on time. They also provided us with regular updates on content performance and suggested changes to the content strategy based on those updates. Overall, the team was very flexible and prompt with any queries and ad hoc requests.

I was impressed by the fact that they were able to scale up our traffic so quickly and outrank several high-authority wine websites with over 10 years of experience.

Startup Voyager could have explored additional alternative investment clusters, but given the scope of the content strategy at that point, their approach effectively met its target of reaching 100,000.
