Here, we share a case study of how we supported a social enterprise focused on providing education and skills development to disadvantaged groups, helping them achieve impressive growth in their online presence through content marketing.
Background
Our client is a leading UK-based social enterprise dedicated to improving lives through education and skills development.
Their mission is to empower those furthest from the workforce, equipping them with the tools they need to build better futures. While they have a long history of success in their sector, they faced challenges in reaching their primary external audiences effectively and achieving visibility in an increasingly competitive digital landscape.
The Challenge
The organisation’s goals for the year included:
- Improving website performance and increasing organic traffic by 10%.
- Securing top search engine rankings for core keywords relevant to their services and mission.
- Enhancing their position as a trusted leader in education for disadvantaged groups.
However, achieving these goals required overcoming several challenges:
- Navigating a highly competitive environment with new players entering the sector.
- Targeting a specific audience that includes policymakers, government officials, education bodies, and service providers rather than the general public.
- Maintaining strict standards for content tone, topic, and wording to align with their unique mission and audience expectations.
Our Approach
We developed a comprehensive SEO and content marketing strategy to address the client’s goals and challenges. Here’s what we did:
1. Keyword and Competitor Analysis
Our team conducted in-depth research to identify the most relevant and high-impact keywords for their audience. We also analysed competitor strategies to pinpoint opportunities for differentiation.
2. Content Strategy and Creation
We designed a content plan tailored to external stakeholders, focusing on topics of interest to policymakers, education bodies, and other key audiences. This included:
- Writing and publishing consistent, high-quality blogs and landing pages.
- Developing content that highlighted the organisation’s impact and thought leadership in the education sector.
3. On-Page SEO Optimisation
We optimised existing landing pages to align with SEO best practices, including:
- Refining metadata (titles and descriptions) to improve click-through rates (CTR).
- Enhancing content structure and keyword placement to boost relevance and rankings.
- Worked with the client to expand core topic areas and consulted on new page development.
4. Technical SEO Enhancements
To ensure optimal website performance, we:
- Resolved crawl issues and optimised the website’s technical foundation for search engines.
- Optimised on page elements such as alt tags, anchor text, headings and meta data.
- Fixed broken internal links.
The Results
Over the course of the year, our efforts delivered exceptional results:
21% Increase in Organic Traffic
Surpassing the client’s original goal of a 10% traffic increase.
38% Increase in Organic Key Events
Significant growth in form submissions and contact clicks, reflecting higher engagement.
Top Rankings for Priority Keywords
All priority keywords secured top 3 positions, with the majority ranking #1.
Future Plans
Looking ahead, we’ll continue to support the client by:
- Maintaining their #1 ranking for competitive career-related search terms.
- Expanding brand awareness through targeted content creation.
- Monitoring competitor activity to adapt and refine the SEO strategy as needed.

Social Enterprise SEO FAQs
What’s the best way to reach niche audiences through content marketing?
If your target audience isn’t the general public, such as policymakers, institutions, or specialists, your content needs to speak their language. That means focusing on sector-relevant topics, data-backed insights, and thought leadership rather than generic sales copy. Content should answer their specific challenges and reflect the outcomes they care about.
Does SEO work for non-commercial or mission-led organisations?
Absolutely. SEO isn’t just for e-commerce or big brands. In fact, search engines are one of the best ways for people to discover purpose-driven work – from services to funding opportunities to social impact stories. The key is crafting strategic content that demonstrates credibility and aligns with your mission.
How do I balance content that builds authority with content that drives conversions?
It starts with understanding your audience’s intent. Some pages (like service or product pages) should focus on action. Others (like blogs, case studies, or educational content) are better for building trust, showcasing expertise, and guiding long-term decisions. A strong content strategy blends both, leading users from awareness to conversion naturally.
How do I keep SEO content professional without sounding too dry or robotic?
The goal is to sound clear, confident, and human. Keep your tone aligned with your audience – formal but not stiff for B2B, warm and sincere for community-focused brands. Avoid overusing jargon or stuffing keywords. Instead, focus on being genuinely helpful, well-structured, and relevant to your reader’s goals.
