Alternative Investment Fund Dominates Local Search Results

Client: Alternative investment fund focused on real estate

Main Challenge: Low local visibility despite strong national brand

The client shared: "We knew we needed to reach investors in specific cities but didn't know how. LBL built a clear plan that got our fund in front of local investors. The local strategy brought in higher quality leads than our national campaigns."

  • 87 keywords in positions 4-10
  • 72% bounce rate
  • 31 referring domains
  • Struggled to appear in "hedge fund [city]" searches

What We Found

  1. Site lacked local content and regional focus
  2. No optimization for local search terms
  3. Few backlinks from local business sites
  4. No Google Business Profile optimization
