The Background

Fort Knox approached us disillusioned with their previous agency. Despite a willingness to invest, they were trapped by a performance ceiling and a "black box" approach to reporting.

The Challenge 

Stagnant Local SEO

Stagnant Local SEO

Falling visibility for high-intent "storage Melbourne" search terms.

Ad Account Overload

Ad Account Overload

A bloated account (30+ campaigns) that was impossible to optimize.

Data Blindness

Data Blindness

A lack of clear analytics made it impossible to see which channels drove the best leads.

The Strategic Solution

Google Ads Consolidation
Pruned the account from 30+ campaigns to a lean structure, pivoting from "Maximize Clicks" to "Maximize Conversions."
Hyper-Local Targeting
Shifted focus toward Google Map Pack visibility to capture local, high-intent users.

Strategic Migration Pause
Implemented a landing page testing phase to identify the highest-converting designs before committing to a full site migration.

TESTIMONIALS

What our partners have to say

"We recently partnered with Studio Better for our SEO work. We are absolutely ecstatic to have Studio Better on board and have found his approach both engaging & commercially framed. Within a few months he is quickly up to speed with our business and making systematic improvements that are driving tangible value. Keep up the amazing work Studio Better and Studio Better Team."
Jimmy Mouzakiotis, Managing Director
Fort Knox Self Storage
Caleb and Aidan from Studio Better have been absolutely fantastic to work with. As a small, independent business with both a brick and mortar store and an online shop, we honestly didn’t know where to start with SEO. What really stood out to us was how personable, patient, and genuinely invested they were in helping us understand the process. They’re incredibly organised, with clear systems in place, and they take the time to talk everything through in a way that actually makes sense. We always feel supported and never rushed, and they’re consistently available whenever we have questions. They’ve given us a clear plan forward and are always thinking ahead to what’s next, which gives us a lot of confidence. We truly couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
