Background
The roaster had a devoted cafe wholesale business and an online store that only its existing fans could find. Every product page was named after an in-joke, collections were organized by roast date, and nothing on the site matched how coffee drinkers actually search.
The challenge
Four things were holding this e-commerce seo engagement back before the work started:
- Product names carried no searchable meaning, and collections mirrored internal logistics rather than buyer intent.
- Zero content existed for the brewing and origin questions their customers asked daily on social media.
- Subscription, the highest-value conversion, was buried three clicks deep with no landing page.
- Bigger marketplace sellers outranked them for every varietal and origin term.
The strategy
01
Rebuilt collections around origin, roast level, and brew method, the three axes customers actually shop by, keeping the playful product names as secondary branding.
02
Built a brewing-guide cluster answering the exact questions from their own customer messages, linked to the products each method suits.
03
Gave the subscription its own landing page targeting gift and recurring-delivery intent, with honest comparison content.
The results
Non-brand organic clicks grew 2.4x in seven months, over 120 brewing and origin keywords reached page one, and 38% of new subscription starts began on an organic landing. The wholesale side also reported cafes citing the brewing guides as the reason they reached out.
