However, thanks to the SEO measures implemented, visibility has significantly improved, and the client is now achieving many top positions on Google in their segment. <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An interesting observation from Customer Project 1 and Customer Project 2: Although the average ranking has improved, the click-through rate has either remained the same or even decreased. This shows that even with very good rankings, the click-through rate often remains disappointingly low. The reason lies in users&rsquo; search habits: Many click in Google Shopping or on the product snippet before they even reach the organic search results.  <\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Customer Project Corporate Website: Patient lives, pulse is present again.<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is not always possible to achieve enormous increases in visibility for every project. A good example of this is this project from the HR sector, which operates in an extremely competitive market. When we started the relaunch, the project was essentially already seemingly dead. However, it is precisely such challenges that make the appeal of achieving sustainable results through targeted SEO measures.   <\/p><section class=\"custom-theme-block image-full-container theme-image-full-container block-padding-middle\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-12\">\n                <div class=\"image-wrapper\">\n                    <script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc.avif\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc.avif\",\"width\":1440,\"height\":704}<\/script>\n\n<picture>\n    <img src=\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc.avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-2160x1440.avif 1893w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-1440x960.avif 1440w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-1080x720.avif 1080w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-960x640.avif 960w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-720x480.avif 720w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-640x428.avif 640w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-480x320.avif 480w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/corporate_website_seo_ff457f92cc-320x214.avif 320w\" alt=\"Corporate Website SEO\" title=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"704\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\">\n<\/picture>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After all, one can say: The patient is alive again and has a noticeable pulse.

The increase was further driven by publishing new pages on the website that were specifically optimised and equipped with suitable images.

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The chart shows exactly the same outlier at the end of July as in our chart one image higher. Although the post was published in October, the author does not show what happened after the core update in mid-August. Her screenshot only shows the values up to the core update. My question in the comments also went unanswered, although I was honestly interested. The author of the post has over 30,000 followers on LinkedIn, and this chart has already been used as a case study in three posts. But always only incompletely up to mid-August, the time of Google&rsquo;s core update.     <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What happened next with the chart &hellip; you can probably guess. It is suspected that this website was also negatively affected by the Google update. However, this doesn&rsquo;t quite fit the celebratory post and is therefore better left unmentioned and unseen.  <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another comment certainly caught my attention due to the bold appearance of the self-proclaimed SEO expert. To the right, I have placed the current Sistrix charts of the two referenced projects. <\/p><section class=\"custom-theme-block image-full-container theme-image-full-container block-padding-middle\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-12\">\n                <div class=\"image-wrapper\">\n                    <script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac.avif\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac.avif\",\"width\":1440,\"height\":734}<\/script>\n\n<picture>\n    <img src=\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac.avif\" srcset=\"https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-2880x1920.avif 2357w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-2160x1440.avif 2160w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-1440x960.avif 1440w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-1080x720.avif 1080w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-960x640.avif 960w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-720x480.avif 720w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-640x428.avif 640w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-480x320.avif 480w, https:\/\/4eck-media.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/ki_spam_seo_ec234016ac-320x214.avif 320w\" alt=\"Only short-term success with AI spam.\" title=\"international_seo_best_case_d24f404ebf\" width=\"1440\" height=\"734\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" sizes=\"auto, 100vw\">\n<\/picture>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also evident here that time-based snapshots of charts should be taken with caution.

Otherwise, as a customer, you risk being stuck with incomplete, outdated, or improperly claimed evidence of supposed SEO successes. <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SEO market is fast-paced, complex, and characterized by constant changes. That&rsquo;s why only one thing matters: transparent, up-to-date, and well-founded references. Success reports that only represent snapshots or remain incomplete can be misleading.  <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are looking for professional SEO consulting, make sure to work with partners who disclose how they respond to challenges such as algorithm updates and who communicate their successes honestly and transparently. Sustainable SEO is not a matter of short-term outliers, but rather continuous optimization, informed decisions, and the willingness to achieve the best possible results even in dynamic environments. <\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the current numbers from our projects, we show exactly that: genuine, verifiable SEO expertise that has long-term effects.
