150 monthly visitors. No keyword strategy. No clustering. A 3-year-old website that had been online for years without ever being properly optimized.
That was the starting point for this Berlin-based organic food company — a B2B brand that manufactures and supplies organic food products to supermarkets and retail chains across Germany.
Eight months of consistent, ongoing SEO work later, the site pulls 5,100+ organic visitors every month, ranks across 508,000 impressions in just 3 months, and now receives traffic from Google, other major search engines, and LLM platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity.
That’s a 2,450% increase in monthly organic traffic.

What the Site Looked Like When We Started
Three years online. A real brand. Real products in real supermarkets. But almost nobody finding them through Google.
The problems were clear from the first audit:
No keyword targeting — pages weren’t written to rank for anything specific. No keyword clustering — related topics were scattered with no topical structure. No content strategy — the site had information but no architecture designed to earn authority. Technical gaps — crawlability and indexing issues that were silently limiting how much Google could even see.
For a B2B organic food brand targeting German buyers and retail partners, this was a significant missed opportunity. People search for organic food suppliers, wholesale organic products, and private label organic food in Germany every day. This brand wasn’t showing up for any of it.
What We Did
Taking full SEO ownership of this project meant building everything from scratch — strategy, structure, content, and technical foundations — while keeping the existing site intact.
Keyword research and clustering. We mapped every relevant topic the brand should own — product categories, ingredient-specific terms, B2B wholesale queries, and local German market searches. Each cluster was given a clear content strategy.
On-page optimization. Every product page, category page, and informational page was rewritten or restructured to target specific keyword clusters with natural, accurate content that matched what German buyers and retail partners actually search for.
Technical SEO. Fixed crawl issues, improved internal linking, optimized site speed, and implemented structured data — giving Google a clean, complete picture of the entire site.
LLM SEO. Structured content so AI models can extract clear, factual answers about this brand’s products and category. The site now receives traffic from LLM platforms — a channel that didn’t exist for them before.
Ongoing monthly SEO. This isn’t a one-time project. The client runs a monthly eCommerce SEO package — which means the work compounds every single month. New content, new optimizations, new opportunities identified and executed continuously.
The Graph Tells the Truth
February started at around 100 daily clicks. By May, the site was consistently hitting 250+ per day — with the trend still pointing up.
Average position at 10.2 means a large number of pages are sitting just outside the top 10. That’s the next opportunity. Pushing those pages from position 10–15 into the top 5 will dramatically increase click volume without requiring significant new content — just continued optimization of what’s already working.
The 3% CTR at position 10.2 already suggests strong title and meta description optimization. As positions improve, that CTR will pull significantly more traffic from the same impressions.
Why Ongoing SEO Beats One-Time Projects
This case study is ongoing. The client didn’t hire us for a 3-month project — they invested in a monthly eCommerce SEO package that keeps building.
That’s why the growth curve looks the way it does. Not a spike. Not a plateau. A consistent climb that gets steeper over time as domain authority builds and more pages enter the top 10.
For a B2B organic food brand competing in Germany’s grocery and retail supply chain, that compounding visibility is a commercial advantage that grows every month.
