Trial Sharks Proposal for SEO
Prepared By

Why We're Talking
Typically, companies like The Trial Sharks turn to us when they are:
Bummed
About the results, or lack thereof, provided from previous vendors.
Overwhelmed
By the sheer amount of noise going on in the industry with what works and what doesn’t.
Frustrated
With their current status quo. Should we prioritize citations, link building, content development, a new website, reviews, structured data, ML/AI, Google Business Profiles, or all of the above?
Pissed
Because they’ve been promised everything under the sun from sales reps of other agencies but have only ever received blog posts that get miniscule traffic, no ranking improvement on keywords that matter, excuses, and no real strategy besides “Look at this shiny report!”

Executive Overview
Traffic/rankings don’t pay the bills and keep you profitable – leads and new customers do. In order to drive new leads to The Trial Sharks, we need to set the right foundation.
We took a look at your current website and organic rankings. Here are our top areas for improvement:
- Thin site content
- Poor backlink profile
- Poor organic visibility and rankings
These aren’t surprising since this is a new website.
This proposal is designed to go into how we can help increase organic visibility.
We will be measuring rankings and organic traffic monthly but we’ll ideally be looking at reporting on new leads.
Let's Talk About Your Business
Thin Content
Our Car Accident Page
Competitor Car Accident Page
Poor Backlink Profile
We have significantly fewer referring domains and backlinks in comparison to our competitors based on the data we pulled from Ahrefs. Backlinks help with site authority and they are tied to several top-ranking factors for Google.
Poor Rankings
Due to our site being new, we have fewer rankings than our competitors. We will be performing keyword research and competitor analyses to understand what needs to be done to improve our visibility.

Tracking
Each client receives a monthly report set up using Looker Studio. We pull your data directly from Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and Google Business Profile. We also set up conversion tracking through your website.
Keyword Research
Ensuring that we’re targeting the right keywords is extremely important.
We will be relying on your Google Ads search term reports along with Google Search Console Date
During this process we’ll identify:
- New keywords to consider
- Content gap opportunities
- SERP features including, People Also ask, Knowledge Panels, Answer Box Results, etc.
Competitive Analysis
We look at 3-5 competitors that are ranking well for competitive
keywords to understand not just HOW but WHY.
Here’s what we look at:
- Site architecture: Internal linking, URL structure, observations on website copy, structured data, readability, and word count.
- Backlink analysis: We use Ahrefs to identify backlink opportunities and to see how the competitor is building their links.
- Reviews: Average rating, quantity of reviews, and review velocity
Proprietary Tools (seriously)
Proprietary tools:
- Competitive link benchmarking and ongoing link building CRM, saves a lot of time.
- Looker Studio SQR: The SQR downloads the previous 16 months worth of Search Console records & puts them into a BigQuery database. A bot downloads the newest records daily.
Our toolset also includes:
- ahrefs, Majestic, SEMrush, Nozzle, Looker Studio, Postamatic, BrightLocal, Whitespark, and more.
Proposed Potential Roadmap
We are a deliverables-focused company
This 3-month SoW (we call it a roadmap) was hand-built based on our conversation, your goals, and where we can bring value. There are no checkbox solutions here.
Why Potential?
We’re shifting things into turbo mode which means we may uncover some issues along the way that we want to address quickly. When that happens, we will let you know and will update the roadmap with as little disruption to our highest-priority tasks as possible.
Why is this Sow ‘Potential’?
SEO has changed dramatically over the years. ~6 years ago, you could build irrelevant backlinks and rank fairly well for your keywords.
Those time are no more, Given the constant-changing nature of local search, we like to be adaptive vs. reactive, e,g, We may see something that we feel should be prioritized now.
Instead of adding that to work to be done in the future, we would likely drop everything we were focusing on and whatever we could to get it done.
Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”

Why Us?
We probably don’t fit the typical agency mold that you’re used to working with. There aren’t 4-layers of communication to get to the people doing the actual work on your account.
As our homepage states; “We are passionate about supporting businesses. We understand what it takes to drive eyeballs, clicks, and ultimately customers for your business leveraging Google.” And we’re pretty great at it.
Our team is small but knowledgeable, experienced, and mighty! We are confident we’ll be able to drive the right kind of results to The Trial Sharks.
We live and breath search and actively contribute to the SEO and greater SEO community.
Client Proof

A.BETTER.BRAND.
These numbers are reported directly from them, not some arbitrary metric we pulled to make us look good.
INTERNET ONLY FIRST-TIME CUSTOMERS:
Where do I begin? It’s all so incredibly perfect! I have worked with quite a few people in this industry, one of them supposedly one of the biggest names in the SEO game, but no one has even come close to matching the knowledge and professionalism of Blake and his team at RicketyRoo.
Having a bunch of different service locations in varying markets accross the US and Canada makes it difficult work of developing plans they have put into motion is genius and working SO WELL! Beyond the abvojus knowledge of SEO and implementation strategies, the communication is as good as I’ve ever had with anyone. They are also EAGER to see results in your business and genuinely give a shit. I cannot recommend Rickety Roo enough! Really, you can’t go wrong here!
