The Challenge
Thin Content and Traffic Declines Across Service Areas
The website had experienced multiple traffic declines and was not generating the consistent inbound leads needed to support the business. The core issue was not lack of coverage—the site had many location pages—but rather weak content that was not competitive in search results.
Key issues included:
90% of pages had extremely thin content, averaging around 90 words
20% of indexed URLs were not getting indexed by Google
Location pages lacked depth and competitive strength
Previous performance drops had reduced visibility across key service areas
No clear strategy to prioritize high-value locations
Instead of spreading effort thin across all locations equally, the strategy focused on identifying and prioritizing high-value service areas, expanding thin content with relevant service details and search-driven terms, and strengthening how pages connected across the site.
We identified the most valuable service areas based on search demand and commercial opportunity. This allowed us to focus resources on locations with the highest potential.
Thin content was the primary barrier to ranking. We expanded location pages with relevant service details, search-driven terms, and improved structure to make them competitive.
We introduced a blog to support location and service pages with informational content that could capture user intent at earlier stages of the customer journey.
We strengthened how content connected across the site to help search engines prioritize valuable URLs and users discover relevant services.

Worth Noting
Thin Content Doesn't Always Recover on Its Own
Many businesses assume that once traffic drops, it will naturally recover. But thin content pages (90 words or less) typically stay weak unless deliberately improved. By prioritizing your highest-value locations and expanding content with specific, search-driven details, you can reverse declines and build momentum that compounds over time.
The improvements came from making the site’s existing pages competitive, focusing resources on high-value locations, and creating supporting content that fed traffic to commercial pages.
