The client

Oven Rescue is a well-known cleaning franchise operating all over the UK. With more than 50 locations in England, Scotland, and Wales, they provide oven cleaning and repair services for both commercial and domestic customers.

The Challenge

We started working with Oven Rescue somewhat as a last report from the client; he had spent a lot of money on paid advertising, not seeing the result she expected. So he came to us wanting to know what we could do to help his business.

He had minimal experience of SEO, but was happy to take our guidance. A thorough audit of the site showed lots of room for improvement, but a limited budget meant we had to be even smarter about where we spent our time.
