Caring Places Management Partners with HawkSEM to Triple Keyword Rankings & Grow Organic Traffic by 79%

Caring Places Management’s mission is to provide personal care through assisted living, memory care, and independent living communities for seniors when living at home is no longer feasible. 

With more than a dozen facilities across Washington and Oregon, Caring Places (caringplaces.com) sets itself apart through innovative programs, hands-on care, and a stellar reputation for providing personalized living environments that encourage dignity, independence, privacy, and safety.

The Challenge:

Caring Places Management was looking to boost its organic presence and bring in more organic traffic as a result. They hadn’t worked with a previous SEO agency and didn’t have tracking set up on their website, which left us without historical data to base our strategies on.

As far as content marketing, the team mainly had published newsletters, thin content, and event announcements, rather than long-form content or blog articles. 

The Solution:

Once we implemented tracking on their website, our team got to work on creating a solid, long-term SEO strategy that would allow Caring Places Management to gain more visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs). We created categories for blogs, filtered all existing blogs into these categories, and optimized existing content for location-based keywords. 

From there, we included local schema markup on community pages to help improve local presence on the SERP for location queries. Then, we added more content to the program pages and rewrote all meta titles and descriptions.

Through conducting technical audits, we were able to identify and fix broken links, canonical tags, and redirects to create a faster page load speed.

Lastly, we partnered with developers to add more call-to-action (CTA) buttons and boost their website’s user experience (UX).

The Results:

While partnering with HawkSEM, Caring Places Management was able to: 

  • Increase keyword rankings by 212%
  • Increase organic traffic by 85%
  • Improve keyword ranking in the top 3 positions by 215%

“I couldn’t ask for a better marketing team. My account managers have been excellent – they are always prompt and responsive to any questions or concerns. Hawk has helped Caring Places create and grow an online presence that has significantly increased website traffic and customer conversions. We wouldn’t be where we are today without our partnership with HawkSEM and implementing their expert advice in improving our marketing practices.” – Hanna Hales, Marketing & Design, Caring Places Management
