Ahrefs, client domain; volumes are monthly search volume for the tracked market. Traffic figures from the account's own monthly reporting, December 2023 to February 2026.

Overview

The situation, goals & challenges

The client makes the systems rather than laying them: microcement, epoxy, polyurea, self-levelling compounds and sealers. The specifications lived in product literature and almost nothing was reachable through search.

The category is searched two ways at once — an architect specifying a system, and a villa owner who wants a garage floor sealed — and the site answered neither. A manufacturer also competes against two different sets of results: the installers who rank for the service, and the international brands who rank for the product.

Strategy & solution

SEO strategy for a flooring manufacturer

A manufacturer competes against two different sets of results at once: the installers who rank for the service, and the international brands who rank for the product. Winning needs more published depth than either bothers to produce.

Cadence

Publish on a cadence, not a campaign

Twenty researched posts a month, every month, for two years. The keyword base compounds because the library does; at this scale there is no other mechanism.

Intent

Answer the comparison before the sale

Polyaspartic against acrylic, sealer against no sealer, slip resistance by surface. Comparative queries are where a specification decision actually gets made.

Structure

Split the product from the application

Microcement is a product; sealing a pool deck in Dubai is a job. The same system gets a page for each, so both searches land somewhere that answers them.

Format

Write for the snippet the query already shows

Each outline is built against the answer box on that result page, which is why several of these terms hold the featured snippet rather than a numbered position.

Scope of work

What actually gets produced each month

Publishing volume is the strategy here, so it is worth being specific about what one month contains. This is the standing scope, not a launch sprint.

  • Primary, secondary and NLP keyword research per post
  • Twenty topics across buyer-intent, informational and comparative queries
  • An outline per post, written against the featured snippet on that result
  • Twenty drafts at 1,200 to 2,000 words
  • SEO title and meta description for each
  • Sixty or more custom images
  • Scheduled publishing across the month

The longer view: organic traffic rose 75.4% across the six months to August 2025, and the keyword base has grown month over month since December 2023 without a flat quarter. This is a compounding programme rather than a spike.

Conclusion

The verdict: strategic SEO transforms businesses

Nothing here was clever. Twenty researched posts a month for two years, aimed at the comparisons a specifier actually makes, is what took the category terms off the installers and the international brands.
