Company: Plumbing Plus
Dates: Between 2016 and 2021
The Challenge
Plumbing plus had invested a lot of money into building their website. In late 2016 however, they realised that the site wasn’t delivering the level of organic traffic they had anticipated.
With many large plumbing groups dominating the space, Plumbing Plus needed to make some big changes to improve its online position.
Search Republic was tasked with enhancing the website’s organic presence through increasing traffic, leads, and sales with Search Engine Optimisation.
The Search Republic Difference
- With the Christmas period fast approaching, Search Republic undertook a detailed SEO audit of the website. This generated a prioritised roadmap of technical, onsite, and offsite optimisation tasks to implement.
- We used the audit to identify and implement some quick technical fixes, ramping up traffic within the first few months in time for the pre-Christmas renovation rush.
- Using Search Republic’s proprietary SEO processes, we were able to identify significant content opportunities around high-ranking plumbing industry keywords.
- Our content creation team assisted Plumbing Plus in expanding the content around all of their plumbing products and services.
- Search Republic didn’t ever sit back to admire our success. Instead we continued to optimise the site and increase traffic, implementing a broad range of SEO projects to identify new opportunities for improvement and foster continual growth.
Search Republic drove a 1000% increase in organic traffic
The Results
- Within the first 2 months organic traffic doubled.
- Between 2016 and 2021, Plumbing Plus’s organic traffic increased by over 1000%.
- Between 2016 and 2021, Plumbing Plus’s organic leads increased by over 500%.
- Highly searched plumbing related keywords such as “bathroom supplies” moved from being on Google’s pages two and three to holding the first, second, or third positions on page one.
What our clients say
It's been great to work with Search Republic on both short and long term campaigns. They have a team of experts who can pick up a brief and help you execute to the highest level. I've enjoyed their can-do attitude and being able to continuously improve the performance of precious ad dollars.

Search Republic are one of the better companies I've worked with. Usually we're not a fan of outsourcing work but it is hard to compete with the digital skills of SR. Brad, Karl, Isaac are not only shareholders, they're also deeply involved in the work SR do. If you've got a need for digital marketing or SEO check these guys out first.
Peter Smith, OwnerFoodbox
Brad and his team at Search Republic have been fantastic. They are incredibly professional and have added significant value. I highly recommend their services!
Sarah Cotterall, OwnerSilk & Steel
Search Republic is a specialist in Google Search and SEO and as such know and understand their product very well. Often agencies that dabble in Search and SEO and don't do it well. It is a science with ever moving goal posts and its single focus means Search Republic is right on top of how to get the best results.
