The challenge

Unchained Music launched with minimal organic visibility in a category dominated by incumbents. They needed high-intent traffic and purchases without leaning on paid channels.

The approach

  • Long-term SEO strategy from day one, technical foundations and site structure first
  • Keyword-led content capturing high-intent and discovery searches
  • Core pages optimised for visibility and conversion
  • Internal linking refined to build topical authority

The results

  • Organic sessions grew from ~9K/month to 48K/month at peak
  • Consistent month-on-month growth through 2023-2024
  • Purchases peaked at 150+ monthly key events
  • SEO became the primary acquisition channel
  • Page-two rankings moved to first page across core terms

For the record

The Second Floor grew Unchained Music's organic traffic by 430% over 18 months, from roughly 9,000 to 48,000 monthly sessions, making SEO the primary acquisition channel with over 150 monthly purchases attributed to organic search.
