Bathroom remodeling: recovering visibility after a Core Update

After the March 2025 Core Update they lost rankings and, a month later, with AI Overviews already live in Spain, leads too. We strengthened their service pages, internal linking with a commercial goal, and the FAQs an AI can cite.

The challenge

Where we started

After Google’s March 2025 Core Update they lost rankings. A month later, with AI Overviews already live in Spain, leads dropped too.

  1. Service pages with thin content and meta tags that could be improved.

  2. Internal linking without a commercial goal.

  3. FAQs and summaries that an AI could cite were missing.

  4. Fewer qualified forms and messages, and the risk that the AI answer would take the visit.

What we did

The work, by workstream

  • Service pages

    • Content that adds value on every service page.
    • Titles and descriptions written for the searcher’s intent.
    • Business‑oriented internal linking.
    • FAQs in a conversational tone that an AI can cite.
  • Content

    • Blog articles for each moment of the decision.
    • Each one answers the sub‑questions an AI breaks the search into.
  • AI visibility

    • A “Summarize with AI” button that generates a summary with a link to the brand.
  • Authority and structured data

    • Mentions in forums and sector media, with natural anchor text.
    • Local business and FAQ structured data.

What changed

Every figure comes with its source and period; and if something is missing, we say so.

Let’s talk

Let’s start by getting acquainted

Tell us what you sell, to whom, and what you’ve tried so far. We’ll tell you frankly whether we can help and where we’d start.

What happens next

  1. You tell us your situation, through the calendar or the form.
  2. We talk: your context, what you want to achieve, and whether we’re a fit.
  3. If we’re a fit, we propose how to start: the audit and its scope, in writing.

The first conversation is to get to know each other; the audit comes later, if we decide to work together.
