FAQs
Q: What’s included in a Kaizen SEO case study?
A: Each case study outlines the client’s goals, the challenges they faced, and the strategy we implemented - from technical SEO and content optimisation to AI visibility and link building. We also include measurable outcomes like ranking improvements, organic traffic growth, and lead generation results.
Q: Are the case studies based on real clients?
A: Yes. Every case study is drawn from genuine client projects. We only publish them with full consent and anonymise sensitive details if confidentiality is required.
Q: Can I see a case study for a company similar to mine?
A: In most cases, yes. We can share relevant examples from your sector or agency size during your consultation to demonstrate what’s achievable in your specific market.
Q: How recent are your case studies?
A: We update them regularly to reflect current SEO and AI search trends. Most published examples are from projects completed within the last 12 months.
