Agency facts

What is the ‘3rd way’?Most search and social media marketing agencies either deliver consultancy or technology, rarely both, and never in configurations that are suited perfectly to your business’s needs and aspirations.

We call this the ‘3rd way’. Where experts meet technology and everything in between.

In practice this means that our sole focus is tailoring a solution that will deliver the highest return, in the shortest time frame – based on your reality.

The 3rd way means we can overcome every obstacle and meet your every ambition, because the solution we’ll put together will be designed specifically for your business. From a 100% software approach to 100% human application of expertise. This is why our results are the best around and why our clients have cumulatively made over £2bn in new revenue as a direct result of our work.

Are you ready for the 3rd way?

Greenlight is different. There are no limits. Whatever will work best for you – we’ll recommend it and execute it from inception to delivery.

SEO is an ever-changing discipline so you need an agency that has SEO at its roots, in its DNA, and the cumulative experience and resources to stay ahead of the curve.

Martyn Jobber ceo, hydra

Greenlight’s distinct innovation and solid number crunching stood out in our quest to appoint an agency to take us to the top of natural search. We targeted the 8 most competitive terms in online finance including current accounts, loans and savings, so it was important to work with an agency that understood the competitive landscape and how to deliver top 5 page rankings. Greenlight has helped us overcome the challenges of working with a new domain with no relevancy or quality back links, and continues to help Santander’s online presence grow in the UK. I would highly recommend Greenlight to any company wishing to boost its online presence.

Amanda Hydesr. emarketing manager, e-commercesantander

In less than 18 months Santander has become the most visible bank in the UK retail banking sectorSantander entered the UK retail banking sector in March 2010 after acquiring Bradford & Bingley, Abbey National and Alliance & Leicester.

Goals• Secure page 1 rankings for high

volume search terms on Google UK for its 4 core products

• Close the online visibility gap with its main competitors

• Become the most visible bank in the natural search results for retail banking products in the UK by the end of 2011

Greenlight strategy• Keyword Research – Extensive

keyword creation for products that Santander want to gain visibility for. Identification of core keywords to target

• Accessibility – Greenlight found a way to work around the SEO inefficiencies of the new domain’s CMS

• Link Building – Increased the credibility of the new website through traditional link building activities

Results• Greenlight secured page 1 rankings

for 7 of the 8 target terms in February 2011, less than 1 year after the campaigns and the subdomain were created

• In June 2011, Santander became the most visible bank for its core 4 products, overtaking its main competitors

One of the best things about Greenlight is that you know you can relax with the knowledge that everything will be taken care of. They were brilliant right from the start, working as an extension to our team. We really weren’t expecting this level of service – Greenlight’s account managers always go the extra mile, even if it means working to short deadlines or over weekends, and the results speak for themselves.

James Daveyhead of onl ine , new look

Thank you for a very good seminar, the SEO presentation in particular was really good. The facilitator had a good ability to keep the audience engaged and interested. I have recommended it to my colleagues that this was one of the best seminars I have attended.

Alycea Lamb-Horth account manager, responsible travel
