Technical SEO Turnaround for The Expert Gate Company

Client: The Expert Gate Company.

Challenge

The site had decent content but three technical issues were quietly capping its growth: 23 pages sitting unindexed, an outdated and unlicensed Elementor installation creating a security risk, and slow page load times dragging on both user experience and rankings.

Approach

  • Diagnosed why 23 pages were showing as "discovered — currently not indexed" and resubmitted all of them to Google
  • Upgraded to a fully licensed, up-to-date Elementor Pro installation, removing the security risk and restoring plugin support
  • Installed and configured WP Rocket premium caching to fix slow load times
  • Tracked all of it monthly against a Semrush-based baseline

Unindexed pages

In two months, ranking keywords grew 53%, organic traffic grew 34%, and the estimated monthly traffic value more than doubled — all three moving together, which is the clearest sign that the technical fixes and content were reinforcing each other rather than one masking a problem in the other.

The 23 pages that were previously invisible to Google are now fully indexed, with the outdated plugin and slow load times resolved alongside it.
