SEO case studies, real client engagements, Kodagu, Karnataka
A working record of what SEO, AEO and GEO look like in practice across Kodagu, Karnataka and India. From a Kodagu spice brand competing against bigger-city rivals in Bengaluru and Mysuru, to live engagements still in progress. The testimonials are client-approved. The historical first-page ranking and current offline/rebuild status are explained below.
Client-approved testimonials. No unsupported performance figures.
How to read these
Each SEO case study follows the same structure: the challenge as the client actually faced it, the strategy and hands-on execution, and the outcome. Quantified results appear only where a real, tracked number exists. Everything else is left honestly open, so you get genuine proof of SEO results rather than marketing spin.
Fawaz BH started in SEO in early 2025 and expanded into AEO and GEO as those disciplines emerged, so every engagement below is delivered directly by the practitioner doing the work, not handed down through agency layers.
Every study names the real business, its industry and its location in Kodagu, Karnataka or the wider India market, and describes the starting point plainly: the visibility gap, the competitors, and what was being lost while the business stayed invisible.
A repeatable four-step structure runs through each engagement, so you can see exactly what was diagnosed, what was planned, what was actually shipped, and what changed as a result. No black boxes.
Client testimonials describe the client experience. The first-page Google ranking is stated separately as a historical result. No time-to-rank, traffic increase or order-growth figure is published.
The testimonials published on this site were approved by the clients over WhatsApp. Their wording is retained as approved.
The case study
The Green Coorg Spices engagement is described below alongside its client-approved testimonial. Other engagements are listed separately as in progress, without performance projections.
Green Coorg Spices is a spice brand in Kushal Nagar, Kodagu. It had no prior website or digital presence. I built its website, which reached first-page Google rankings.
The site is currently offline because hosting expired. A rebuilt version is in progress. The ranking describes the previous website, not current visibility; the external link is disabled until the site returns.
Case Study 01, Green Coorg Spices
Challenge, strategy, execution, result.
01, Challenge
Green Coorg Spices had no prior website or digital presence.
02, Strategy
Fix the technical foundation, then dominate locally with Google Business Profile, Kodagu-specific landing pages and citations, before layering in answer-engine-ready content.
03, Execution
I built the website. Site audit and technical fixes, Core Web Vitals and conversion tracking set up; Google Business Profile optimised and local citations built; geo-targeted landing pages and pillar articles with FAQ schema and entity-rich AEO formatting published.
04, Historical result and current status
The website reached first-page Google rankings. It is currently offline because hosting expired, and a rebuilt version is in progress. No time-to-rank or order-growth figure is asserted. The approved testimonial below is retained in the client’s own words.
“Fawaz helped us reach the first page of Google, and our online orders from Bengaluru and Mysuru have grown. He genuinely understood the Kodagu market.”
The engagement write-up explains the work; the approved testimonial preserves the client voice. Neither supplies a numerical forecast for another business.

The testimonials were approved by the clients over WhatsApp.
A testimonial is the client's approved statement about their experience. A case study describes an engagement and its work. Approval of a testimonial does not independently verify a numerical ranking, traffic, sales or citation claim.
The first-page ranking is a historical result, not a claim of current visibility while the site is offline. No time-to-rank, traffic increase or order-growth figure is published. The client-approved testimonials are retained verbatim.
There is no fixed result date. Timing depends on the starting site, competition, scope and implementation. A testimonial is not a timeline guarantee for another business.
Business size alone does not determine a search result. Assess the query, competition and the usefulness of the site. No particular ranking or competitive outcome is promised.
Contact Fawaz directly to discuss the published engagement and whether a reference conversation can be arranged with the client's permission. In-progress engagements are not presented as completed results.
Begin with a discovery audit to assess the starting point and agree the scope. Client testimonials describe their own experience and do not guarantee a similar outcome for another business.
