NCX Brain Recovery / SEO + Google Ads
Organic traffic doubled with a quiz, content and a competitor campaign
A concussion treatment clinic needed people who were struggling to recover to find it before they found the bigger national competitor.
- Organic search traffic, year over year
- +104%
- Of that growth came from the concussion quiz
- 67%
- Non-quiz organic traffic from content and SEO work
- +62%
- Cost per call or form lead on the competitor campaign
- -23%
2024 compared with 2025. 2026 traffic has run level with 2025 after a technical issue blocked the quiz page from Google for several months; it was fixed in September 2026.
[ The challenge ]
Outranked by a national name
People searching for help were landing on a much larger competitor, and the clinic’s site had little content answering the questions those people were asking.

[ What we did ]
Give searchers a reason to start here
- Built a short “Do I have a concussion?” quiz as the entry point for people unsure what is wrong
- Published a content series on post-concussion syndrome and recovery, plus FAQ, booking and treatment pages with structured data
- Ran a search campaign aimed at people comparing the national competitor, with a landing page built for that comparison
- Fixed the technical issue that had blocked the quiz page from Google

Twice the organic traffic, cheaper leads from ads
