The problem

What was broken.

A respected Adelaide dance studio with strong instructors but a struggling website — slow, untracked, and invisible on Google for the competitive Adelaide dance, salsa, ballroom, and wedding-dance keywords that actually drive enrollments.

The strategy

What we did.

  1. 01Ran a full technical SEO audit — fixed crawl, indexation, schema, site speed, and IA so every page was eligible to rank in Adelaide.
  2. 02Built a Shopify store for dance shoes and accessories with optimized product, category, and collection pages targeting commercial-intent queries.
  3. 03Owned local SEO — GBP optimization, location pages, and citation cleanup to win the Adelaide map pack for dance, salsa, ballroom, wedding, and Latin queries.
  4. 04Maintained a 4+ year content + link-building program: dance-style guides, wedding-dance landing pages, and ongoing technical maintenance.
The result

What changed.

DanceAmor now ranks #1 for 25+ keywords, top-3 for 40+, and on page one for 85+ — including 'best dance class adelaide', 'salsa classes adelaide', 'wedding dance lessons adelaide', and 'bachata dance shoes'. Organic traffic is up 400%+ and the studio is Adelaide's most-discoverable dance academy.

Duration: 4+ years (ongoing retainer)
