Test Project: Local SEO Strategy, Audit & Implementation Purpose A small, paid task to see how you think strategically and execute technically to enable me to plan further SEO work and marketing strategy. Also to demonstrate wordpress skills and clear communication. Background The Range Holistic Spa & Wellness ([login to view URL]) is a private wellness retreat (Finnish sauna, cold plunge, magnesium spa, fire pit, contrast therapy) on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. We wish to target nearby potential guests and current guests within nearby luxury accommodation. Scope Part 1: Local SEO Strategy (written) Give me a short strategy document covering: • How to align our SEO/content with guests staying at specific local luxury accommodation locations (local intent, proximity-based search behaviour). • Include steps to expand the approach to google paid ads for these types of guests stating in the local area and also researching this accommodation. • Specific tactics: local landing pages, location-based schema, Google Business Profile optimisation, content ideas targeting near luxury accommodation providers. Part 2: SEO Audit (written) • Audit the current site ([login to view URL]) for local SEO gaps • Flag specific, prioritised issues (not generic checklist items) — on-page, technical, and Google Business Profile. Quite a bit of seo work has already been done on this site. • Reference actual data from Search Console/GA4 where relevant Part 3: One Small Implementation • Pick the single highest-impact fix from your audit and implement it directly in WordPress/Rank Math (e.g. one page's local SEO optimisation, one schema addition, one GBP fix) • This demonstrates you are able to implement described changes. Part 4: Fix some website implementation issues noted below: - Some pages have a grey banner at the top of the page, remove this - Fix the error in the current page (double header) [login to view URL] What I'm evaluating • Strategic thinking: do they understand local/proximity SEO specifically, not just generic SEO? • Are you a candidate to work with in the future on an ongoing basis? • Audit quality: specific and prioritised, referencing real data, vs generic advice • Implementation: correctly executed, doesn't break anything • Communication: clear explanation of reasoning, honest about what will/won't move rankings quickly Access provided • A separate WordPress account with Editor role — sufficient for page-level SEO/content changes, does not allow plugin/theme/site-level changes • View-only access to Google Search Console and GA4 Timeline Please complete within 3 days of receiving access. This is offered as a maximum of 3 hours work. Future This project is a tester for additional work to be performed in the future.

Hi, I hope you're doing well! This looks like a well-structured test project and I'm confident I can deliver clear, specific work across all four parts within your 3-day window. Here's my approach: Strategy doc focused on proximity-based intent and luxury accommodation targeting, not generic advice. Audit referencing real Search Console and GA4 data, prioritised by actual impact. One high-impact implementation done cleanly in WordPress and Rank Math. Grey banner and double header fixes handled carefully without breaking anything. A few questions to help me hit the ground running: 1. Do you have a shortlist of nearby luxury accommodation providers you'd like to target, or should I research and propose those? 2. Are there specific services like contrast therapy or sauna that you want to prioritise in the local SEO strategy? 3. Is there a particular page or search term where you feel the site is underperforming most right now? Looking forward to showing you how I think and work, and hopefully building something longer-term from here. Azeem Amin

Hi there, I can already see the hidden gap: you don’t just need more SEO ideas , you need local intent translated into bookings around nearby luxury stays. I’ve worked with WordPress and Rank Math setups, local landing pages, schema, and practical on-page fixes, so I can turn your existing SEO work into something clearer, sharper, and more measurable. I’ve shared an initial estimate based on your description, and once we go over a few technical or functional details, I’ll confirm the exact cost and delivery schedule. I’ll review Search Console and GA4, identify the highest-impact local SEO opportunities, write a focused strategy for nearby accommodation targeting, and implement one priority fix directly in WordPress without disrupting the site. I can also fix the grey banner issue and the double-header problem on the contrast therapy page as part of the same workflow. If you’d like, I can start by mapping the strongest local landing page angle and the quickest technical win. Which local accommodation clusters or nearby guest segments matter most for your bookings? Best regards, Asad Looking forward to your reply so we can finalize the exact plan.
