Crushing SEO Goals with Empress Locs of Royalty 👑

At Candy Creative, we believe that SEO services should be available to more than just the Fortune 500 companies of the world. One of our recent niche clients was Empress Locs of Royalty, a local loctician serving the Houston area. We encountered them struggling to obtain leads and rebuilt their website from the ground up with a major emphasis on attracting potential clients and booking more appointments. The results were so sweet we are now looking for a dentist to fill the cavities >:)

First-Page Domination for Local Searches 🚀

We helped Empress Locs of Royalty reach the first page of Google quickly for important terms so potential clients could find them more easily. Terms we got them ranking first page for include:

“Loctician Katy”
“Locs Katy”
“Loctician Near Me” (for local searches in Katy/Cypress Area)

By optimizing for these high-intent keywords, we positioned their business right where potential clients were looking for loc services, bringing them from invisible to undeniable in the local search results. By ranking for these keywords we exposed them to another segment of clients who had never heard of their business before.

This is the type of exposure that we are here to bring to businesses of all sizes in the Houston area!

Organic Search Driving Results 🌱

In the last 90 days, here's some quick stats showing our progress:

Out of all the visitors to the homepage, 60% clicked through to the booking page, and 13% of those went on to book appointments! 💰 You can’t catch them all but we focus on improving conversion rates at every step in the process.

59% of visitors found the website through Google searches instead of just visiting directly from word-of-mouth or bookmarks. These are people who were not specifically searching for our client who found and engaged with their website.

We didn’t stop at just driving traffic. We more than doubled the average engagement time per visitor on the website. We increased the average engagement time per visitor from 30 seconds to 1 minute 11 seconds, meaning visitors are sticking around longer to interact with content and possibly book appointments.

We Got First Page for Important ‘Near Me’ Searches 🔍

We’ve also helped Empress Locs rank for a variety of “near me” search terms, which are critical for local SEO. We also worked on local SEO for Empress Locs of Royalty by helping them get on the first page for critical near-me searches clients are making.

These are some of the most qualified leads as they are looking for our client's service in their service area.

While not every search term is pulling massive clicks yet, their Google Search rankings are starting to shine for queries like:

“Dreadlock near me” (#1 position!)
“Dreads near me”
“Dreadlock reattachment near me”

We are competing with lists of Locticians from Booksy at this point.

Imagine how much better qualified our client’s traffic is than Booksy locticians that compete with many others on the same page.

Client Feedback ✨

“I’m absolutely thrilled with Candy Creative! They crafted a fantastic website for my business, Empress Locs of Royalty, that’s made managing appointments and payments incredibly easy. The design is beautiful, and I’ve seen a noticeable uptick in calls and bookings. Working with their team has simplified my day-to-day tasks and boosted my business significantly!”Empress Locs of Royalty (Iesha Stan)

If I search Google right now for your product/service will I see you on the first page? If not, you are missing out on countless potential customers who simply cannot find your business. Many people think SEO is nice to have, but the reality is that it is just as important as being in the phone book in the 90s. Without an online presence, many customers will fail to realize your business exists. Let Candy Creative help you get visible where it matters! 🍬

You’ve Found the Sweetest SEO Team Around 🍭

At Candy Creative, we’ve got the SEO strategies that will have your business popping like your favorite candy. Don’t let your competitors steal all the shine—it’s time to sweeten the deal! Sweeten My Leads Now!

Keyword Research & Strategy 🔍

Keywords are the words people type into Google when trying to find stuff. We research deep into your niche and keyword wishlist to discover what words people enter to find your competitors and create a competitive keyword strategy for your website. Our strategy focuses on creating useful content for your website to compete on the keywords you need to show up for.

Link Building 🔗

The internet is like one big social network but instead of friends, websites have backlinks. A backlink is when another website puts a link to your website on their page. The more popular and trustworthy the website that links to you, the more popular and trustworthy your site is seen by Google. We focus on building high-quality backlinks and work to avoid low-quality spammy links that could damage your website's reputation.

Technical SEO ⚙️

Technical SEO is all about making sure your website runs perfectly across all devices. We improve page load speeds and fix any crawl issues. Google will not like to rank your website if it loads slowly for some users or not at all. We handle canonical tags, robots.txt, sitemaps, and ensure mobile usability.

Local SEO 📍

If you provide a local product or service in Houston, local SEO is of utmost importance. We optimize your Google Business Profile and optimize your listing so your business appears on the first page when people search for your product/service “near me”. This ensures more people can find and visit your store.

On-Page SEO 🖥️

On-page SEO is making sure everything on your page is structured in a way Google will love. We optimize titles, title tags, meta descriptions, headers, and images. Your content will be full of rich keywords, crisp tags, and a coating of hi-res images. We create content that actually engages your audience and keeps them coming back for more like a sugar addiction.

Off-Page SEO 🚀

Off-page SEO is all about getting other websites to talk about your business. Alongside link-building, we enhance your reputation with strategic efforts like influencer partnerships, social media marketing, and other off-site activities. Google sees these links to your website from other important sites and thinks “Does this site maybe have the sauce?” 🍭

Franchise SEO 🏙️

Got multiple business locations? Okay, Mr/Mrs Big Time! We offer Franchise SEO that consists of creating geo-targeting landing pages for regions you operate in with geo-specific content, obtaining local backlinks to increase local visibility, and hyper-local keywords designed to bring leads to all your locations.

Shopify SEO 🛒

If you're running a Shopify store you need our Shopify SEO Services that help you show up when people search for your products on Google. We optimize all product and landing pages, and enhance product descriptions, meta tags, and URLs for best ranking performance. Our strategy relies on CRO techniques to maximize organic traffic.

Amazon SEO 📦

Are you selling on Amazon Marketplace and need to make your product listings and ads stand out? We are here to help you capture a larger percentage of your potential customers. We aim to ensure your product gets seen by customers searching relevant keywords that signal buy intentions.

eCommerce SEO 🛍️

eCommerce SEO focuses on optimizing your online store for better visibility in Google. We improve product pages, and integrate with platforms to broaden your reach and increase sales. Our strategy includes product review videos, structured data on product pages for rich snippets, and content marketing focused on capturing long-tail searches and driving more sales.

Content Writing ✍️

If you want to stand out you will need to create content your audience genuinely finds captivating and leaves them creating more. Whether it’s videos, blogs, product descriptions, or web copy, we turn our keyword research into a traffic magnet with our content writing service. From sweet and sticky headlines to filling your content with rich keywords, we create content so tasty even Google is addicted!

Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) 🚀

CRO is trying to optimize your website as much as possible to ensure everyone who visits your store buys something. We use A/B tests to optimize landing pages, streamline checkout, and create user-specific content. We aim to personalize the experience, increase engagement, and lower your bounce rates.

SEO as 🚀 as Your Business

All of our clients get a custom solution tailored to their business and not some cheap template copy.

Whether you are a Fortune 500 company or a mom-and-pop store scrapping along, our SEO strategies are built off the shelf customized for your specific business.

If you are still questioning why you should partner with us, here are some of the things that make us stand out in the sweet digital world:

Generic strategies just don’t cut it in this competitive market and won’t cut it with us. 🍭

We don’t even know the meaning of ghosting!

Long-Term Success, Not Just Quick Wins

We are sure you have noticed the guys on Fiverr selling SEO results for $19.99 by now, but we are here to tell you that their strategies only lead to short-term wins and can harm your ranking long term. SEO is a slow and rewarding process.

We focus on sustainable growth and avidly avoid any spammy or unethical strategies that could get your website penalized. Our plans are shaped with the idea of you climbing the ranks for years to come! Ready to take your Digital Presence to new heights?

Partner with Candy Creative to unwrap the sweetest partnership you’ve ever experienced with a Digital Marketing agency. 🍬

GROWING SEO IS LIKE GOING TO THE GYM. IT MUST BE OBTAINED OVER SOME TIME THROUGH REGIMEN, GRIT, AND DETERMINATION 💪

Dripping Candy All Over the Web! 🍭

We don’t mess around when it comes to delivering results that stick.

We provide the candy rush your business needs to stand out online and attract new customers. Our strategies are all conducted ethically using the perfect blend of strategies to boost your search engine ranking.

Let’s break down some of the things that make our service so sweet:

🍬 Did we mention your strategy will be custom?
We are starting to feel like a broken record, but we can promise you that you don’t want generic SEO strategies. Your competitors could already be using the same strategies, and that won’t help you stand out, will it?

🍡 High-Quality Content that Doesn’t Sound All AI-ish
With the invention of ChatGPT, it is more important than ever to not have generic-sounding content. No one likes reading AI content, and your potential customers surely won’t. We put blood, sweat, and tears into ensuring your content is engaging to your target audience and doesn’t sound like generic AI 💩.

🍫 Organic SEO + Paid Ads Blend Great Together
If you want faster results, we recommend combining our SEO services with paid ads. We spread your content across curated relevant platforms, social media pages, and news outlets. Paid ads can provide a short-term traffic boost to your website while we await the results of your long-term SEO campaigns.

🍭 Onsite SEO That Covers All the Basics!
We consider every element of your digital presence from the foundation up. Every little title tag, meta description, or image alternative text is a playground for us. We fine-tune all elements of your page to boost your search rankings.

🍬 We Keep an Eye on the Opps for You
We aren’t in this game to trail your competition, but rather to outcompete them. We take a hard, detailed look into what your competitors are doing, learn from it, and sprinkle a little magic on it to produce results that outshine them.

🍡 We Spread Your Content Everywhere to Expand Reach
We ensure your content is delivered across a variety of platforms—even the ones you might not have considered in the past. We do this to ensure as much exposure as possible to your content, helping you reach customers you may not have before.

🍫 Deep-Diving for Those Keywords & Market Analysis
We don’t just search your business name on a tool and consider our job done. We start by searching keywords related to your business, then we delve deeper into your top competitors and others in your industry. We use this data throughout the design and implementation of our campaigns.

🍭 Carefully Crafted Link Building
We build links slowly and sustainably. We aren’t going to pay someone to give you 90 DR 95 links in one week, but when we get your high DR links, they will be quality and stick. We review each link manually and ensure it is relevant to your industry and has the proper authority to help your online reputation. We focus on the long-term results when building links and do not cut corners in your content, so we get backlinks from people inspired to link to you—not a bunch of spammy web pages.

🍬 Analytics & Data-Driven Insights
We use tools like Google Analytics, Ahrefs, SEMrush, and others to ensure we have real-time data to base our marketing decisions on. This data allows us to stay connected with the audience and adapt quickly to changes in user preferences.

Ready to unwrap the full sweetness potential of your digital presence? 🍬 Let’s make those dreams of having too many customers to handle a reality 🌞What do you think about that? Let us know if you’d like to add a little more flavor and sauce to your digital marketing strategy! 🍭💻
