Context

A car financing broker in Quebec changes its business model: it goes from dealership to financing company. Removing the inventory pages leads to a drop of about 70% in organic traffic over two years. The engagement starts in April 2025.

Actions

  • Technical clean-up and end of internal cannibalization.
  • Consolidation: about 200 blog pages and 2,000 testimonials removed, with no loss on commercial pages.
  • Google Business Profile aligned with the loan agency status.
  • Semantic clarification of commercial pages and targeted external links.
