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

UPCORN AGENCY carried out a comprehensive SEO and ASO campaign tailored to our needs.. In terms of SEO, they carried out a thorough site audit and fixed technical problems that were interfering with indexing and crawlability.  By conducting thorough keyword research, they improved our on-page SEO and matched content to user intent and search behavior.  Additionally, they combined their insights from rank tracking with practical suggestions that we could put into practice right away.  In order to maintain our app listing's relevance and engagement, ASO benchmarked our competitors, optimized our app's metadata and descriptions, and developed a roadmap. Their Chrome Extension optimization strategy, which assisted us in emphasizing one of our most crucial features in a way that was search engine friendly, was a particularly useful deliverable.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The results were evident as our platform began to draw in more targeted organic traffic.  We observed improved app visibility in store searches and better ranking for competitive keywords that we had previously had trouble gaining traction with, which resulted in a consistent increase in user sign-ups.  Beyond rankings, we were reassured that we were on the right track both strategically and technically by the noticeable improvements in our site health indicators.

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

Their project management was reliable and seamless. They regularly provided us with succinct reports on their progress and completed each phase within the predetermined time frame. Their quick and solution-focused response whenever we needed more explanations or modifications made the working relationship feel simple and effective.

At a certain point, we reached a plateau in the process of promoting our website. We realized that relying solely on on-site SEO methods wasn't enough anymore. We thought about setting up our own team to build links internally, but it seemed too complicated and expensive. So, we decided to find an expert contractor to handle our link building externally. After looking into various options, we picked UPCORN AGENCY as our top choice.

The outcomes came quickly. The UPCORN AGENCY team has created 41 excellent links for us. Our DR has now risen from 36 to 57, and our traffic has grown by 275%.

Our agency doesn’t specialize in app store optimization, so when our clients needed to improve their app store presence, we partnered with UPCORN AGENCY. They offer a wide range of ASO services and tailored their work to the unique needs of each client. For some, this meant improving textual and visual metadata on app pages in both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. 
They also managed app reputation, helping to boost ratings and reviews, while running ASA and Google App Campaigns to achieve stronger CPI and ROAS. Thanks to their efforts, our clients saw improved user engagement, increased trust, higher download numbers, and a greater volume of positive app reviews.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Our clients have expressed strong satisfaction with the results of working with UPCORN AGENCY. They achieved exactly what they expected, including higher conversion rates, improved user engagement, more downloads, stronger reviews and ratings, and greater visibility in the app stores. Several clients even reported that their apps reached the Top 10 rankings for certain keywords within just 1.5–2 months of cooperation, an impressively short timeframe.

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

Communication was smooth and efficient. Tasks and issues were addressed quickly, and their progress reports were detailed yet easy to understand, even for those without advanced knowledge of app store marketing.

What specific goals or objectives did you hire UPCORN AGENCY to accomplish?

• Our aim was to improve the search rankings of several blog articles to drive more inbound leads. I had been handling SEO tasks myself since founding the company, but I wanted to hand this work over to professionals with stronger marketing expertise. UPCORN AGENCY’s deep knowledge of backlink strategy, especially in identifying placements that move the needle in Google rankings, made them a clear choice to take this responsibility off my plate.

The engagement began with several strategy discussions to ensure they fully grasped our business model and the type of websites that would best align with our services. The idea was to secure backlinks not only from general tech blogs but from industry-relevant sites that carried more weight for us. After the planning phase, they consistently built high-quality backlinks to four of our blog posts every month. Deliveries were always on time, and they provided monthly progress updates. We didn’t have to be heavily involved, which was ideal, and they reliably produced the kind of links we needed.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The work directly contributed to us closing new business, as the boosted traffic to those blog posts translated into opportunities. One article, in particular, climbed from not ranking at all to holding the #3 spot for its target keyword, generating steady monthly clicks. Overall, site traffic has grown significantly since starting the engagement.

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

Collaboration was smooth and efficient. Our preference was to remain fairly hands off so we could focus on other marketing initiatives, and they handled the workload seamlessly while still keeping us regularly informed.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire UPCORN AGENCY to accomplish?

• Our website had begun to feel invisible to the appropriate audience, so we brought on UPCORN AGENCY. Despite years of experience in the textile sector, our online presence lacked the creative spirit that characterized our goods. We wanted to increase visibility for categories like acoustic solutions and coated fabrics, but more importantly, we wanted to connect with architects, designers, and decision-makers in hospitality and healthcare who were actively searching for performance-driven textiles.

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

UPCORN AGENCY started with a thorough technical SEO audit, which revealed problems we had long disregarded, such as crawl errors in our product catalog and broken links on our wallcovering pages.  They collaborated with us to create a customized SEO strategy based on competitor analysis and keyword opportunities that made sense for our particular market after the foundation was established.  They created content briefs that our team could use as a guide when developing new product stories, rewrote meta descriptions to match intent, and optimized our most-visited landing pages.  One of the highlights was how they improved our listings' search engine visibility by incorporating structured data into our pages for outdoor products and coated fabrics.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The most obvious result was that we started to show up in searches that had never previously included our updated acoustic solutions pages.  Additionally, we observed a more seamless desktop and mobile experience, which was evident in the lengthier browsing sessions of new users.  What was particularly noteworthy was how they observed user behavior on our wall tiles section and modified the layout and call-to-actions to make inquiries feel organic rather than compelled.  Their strategy focused on ensuring that the right people continued to visit our website, not just on rankings.

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

UPCORN AGENCY utilized Trello for seamless communication, consistently providing updates and timely delivery of milestones, and providing thoughtful, practical responses for easy collaboration.

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

Their ability to simplify the intricate process of SEO into manageable steps that didn't overwhelm our internal marketing team was what most impressed us.  Instead of using a generic approach, they modified their strategy to fit the design-driven nature of textiles. They understood the subtleties of our industry.

Are there any areas for improvement or something UPCORN AGENCY could have done differently?

In terms of improvement, there were times when we wished they had included more illustrations to show how specific technical adjustments would affect the user experience, but that is a minor point in comparison to the overall value they provided.

At the start of our engagement, we gave UPCORN AGENCY full access to our analytics. They responded with a detailed discovery document outlining what they considered top priorities based on the data. From there, we collaborated closely to address those priorities. So far, their team has conducted usability studies and split testing on our product pages and ads to improve overall website conversion rates. They’ve also optimized high-traffic pages to maximize results. UPCORN AGENCY leads weekly calls where they walk us through ongoing and completed tests, discuss which ones succeeded or failed, and plan for upcoming experiments. Their team consistently comes prepared with fresh ideas informed by past tests, client learnings, and industry best practices. We also contribute our own ideas, and together we validate them using Google Optimize for A/B testing and Hotjar for user insights. While our internal team handles implementation, UPCORN AGENCY guides us through testing strategy and analysis. Most recently, they’ve supported our analytics transition. With the sunsetting of Universal Analytics, we initially considered migrating to GA4, but since GA4 isn’t GDPR compliant, we chose Matomo Analytics instead. UPCORN AGENCY helped us set it up, generate reports, and analyze the results — ensuring compliance for our European operations while maintaining data accuracy and usability.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Currently, we’re seeing about a 10X ROI from our work with UPCORN AGENCY. In addition, our overall site conversion rate has improved by roughly 0.6%. While that may not sound like a big jump, for an e-commerce business like ours it translates into a significant increase in revenue. We had high expectations going into this partnership, and UPCORN AGENCY has not only met them but exceeded them.

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

We’re truly impressed with their approach. Their methods are logical, methodical, and grounded in data. Every decision is driven by scientific analysis, math, and smart thinking, which gives us confidence in the process. Based on this, we feel we’ve found a great partner in them and are excited to continue working together.

Their team always comes prepared with a clear agenda and presents detailed PowerPoint or Google Slides updates. These sessions show us exactly where we are in our tests, what’s performing well, and what areas need improvement.

The work they deliver is timely, and they continually push us forward—which we see as a positive. As a small team with a heavy workload, having a proactive external partner has been invaluable. The budget structure is also excellent; we pay a monthly retainer that covers all our needs, and we’re very satisfied with the value we receive.
