We turned ZUGU’s website into a revenue engine — outranking competitors, owning AI visibility, and smashing organic revenue growth targets.

From Amazon Reliance to Revenue Resilience

ZUGU built a name for itself selling high-performance iPad cases on Amazon. But when COVID-19 hit and its products were classified as non-essential, Amazon sales took a hit. Founder Tim knew it was time to reduce reliance on third-party platforms and turn ZUGU’s website into a reliable, revenue-generating sales channel.

To do that, ZUGU needed a dedicated partner with a strategic focus and commercial mindset to unlock long-term organic growth goals. That’s where we came in.

We built a multi-channel digital marketing strategy around Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), Content Marketing, and Digital PR designed to attract qualified traffic, increase conversions, and build lasting authority.

As Google’s AI Overviews emerged, we saw an opportunity. We created content designed to rank not just in traditional search results but also in AI-generated summaries, giving ZUGU an edge in how future customers discover their brand.

Our integrated strategy delivered across the board: high-value commercial keywords reached and maintained position 1, organic and AI-driven traffic surged, and targeted digital PR earned ZUGU features in high-authority publications like WIRED and ZDNet.

ZUGU now has a high-converting site that ranks, earns attention in traditional and AI searches, and drives real revenue.

The Strategy

Step 1: Turn ZUGU’s Website Into a Sales Engine

Our SEO strategy was geared towards one goal: driving more revenue directly through the website. We focused on:

  • Improving visibility for high-intent keywords
  • Aligning on-page content with buying behaviour
  • Enhancing the user experience to reduce friction and boost conversions
Every action, from content tweaks to structural fixes, was designed to attract ready-to-buy visitors and guide them seamlessly to checkout.

Step 2: Create Future-Proof Content

We developed a content strategy focused on high-intent, informational searches to boost rankings, drive traffic, and build trust. We also aligned content creation with AI Overviews' best practices, resulting in multiple blogs appearing in these AI-generated summaries and driving visibility beyond the traditional SERP.

Step 3: Get the Brand Talked About

Hand holding the earth

Our digital PR strategy prioritised high-authority, Apple-focused outlets like WIRED, ZDNet, and MacRumors to elevate brand credibility and boost SEO authority. These weren’t just backlinks — they were powerful third-party validations that introduced ZUGU to millions of high-intent, tech-savvy shoppers.

The Work

EN Underline

Technical SEO Audit and Fixes

We completed a comprehensive technical SEO audit, identifying crawlability issues and performance blockers across the site. With fixes implemented or passed to ZUGU’s developer, site health jumped from 54% to 78% — laying a solid foundation for organic growth.

Product and Collection Page Optimisation

We reviewed ZUGU’s highest-impact collection and product pages and recommended improvements to layout, copy, and keyword targeting. Updates to metadata and on-page content helped maintain rankings for key commercial terms and drive more qualified traffic to buying pages.

Blog Strategy Aligned with AI Overviews

We built a blog strategy around informational, long-tail keywords. Posts like Why Does My iPad Battery Drain So Fast? were crafted to deliver value and meet Google’s AI Overview requirements. These posts now appear in AI-generated summaries, expanding ZUGU’s top-of-funnel reach.

Content UX Improvements

To boost engagement and crawlability, we led a redesign of the blog homepage and template. Updates included post categories, sticky navigation, and author bios to support both user experience and E-E-A-T signals.

Metadata and CTR Optimisation

Outdated page titles and descriptions were reworked across high-performing and new product pages. These changes not only improved alignment with search intent but also enhanced CTR in competitive SERPs.

Digital PR That Boosts Search and AI Visibility

We built a targeted media list of tech and Apple-focused publications, then pitched timely, product-led angles tailored to each outlet. Outreach was strategically timed with Apple launches and ZUGU product drops, securing key placements in WIRED, ZDNet, MacRumors, and more. These high-authority features not only boosted SEO and referral traffic — they also helped ZUGU earn visibility in AI-generated answers on platforms like Perplexity and ChatGPT, extending reach far beyond traditional search.
