Studiohawk, a Pimento member SEO agency, embarked on a transformative journey with Officeworks, one of Australia’s premier retail giants, to enhance their website’s SEO performance.

Faced with a daunting challenge from the outset, our team not only navigated through an unforeseen obstacle but also surpassed the initial goals set by Officeworks, delivering results that exceeded all expectations.

The challenge

Upon first engagement, Officeworks was on the cusp of implementing a major technological shift to ReactJS for their website—a move that, without Studiohawk’s intervention, could have significantly impacted their organic traffic negatively. The objectives were clear yet ambitious:

  • Increase Officeworks’ organic revenue by 8% within 12 months: A target Studiohawk not only achieved but exceeded, reaching a remarkable 29% increase.
  • Empower Officeworks’ digital team: Educate and guide them in restructuring their online content with SEO best practices in mind.
  • Cement the role of SEO in business strategy: Highlight the critical importance of SEO to the executive team at Officeworks.

The impending ReactJS transition presented an immediate challenge, risking a significant drop in site traffic if not handled correctly.
