Jul–Sep 2026 vs. Apr–Jun 2026 · Google Search Console

The situation

From April through June 2026 the site earned 12 search clicks and showed up 2,090 times in Google, competing head-on with every bookkeeper in the country for "bookkeeping."

The problem

"Bookkeeping" is a national fight a small firm can't win. The firm needed a corner of the market it could own.

The work

Logo & brand identity

A new logo and brand system that feels trustworthy and approachable.

Website redesign

A new, fast, mobile-first website built to book discovery calls.

SEO

Technical cleanup and pages built around the industries the firm serves best.

Blogging

Niche articles on bookkeeping for landscaping, lawn care and other service businesses.

And more

Ongoing support that keeps the brand, the site and the rankings moving in the same direction.

The results

July–September vs. April–June 2026 (Google Search Console):

  • Clicks: 12 → 32 (+167%)
  • Impressions: 2.09K → 6.47K (+210%)
  • Landscaping and lawn care bookkeeping searches: 0 → 1,350 impressions

Average position moved from 7.1 to 18.4 because the site now shows up for hundreds of new searches, not because it slipped on the old ones.

What this means for you

You can't outspend national brands on the big keyword. Pick a niche, answer its questions, and own it.
