The Challenge

SJA Property Management needed a modern, conversion-focused website that could generate more qualified leads while strengthening the company’s long-term visibility in search engines and AI-powered platforms.

  • Disorganized content and unclear messaging: The website’s content was difficult to navigate, and the company’s value proposition was not communicated consistently. Visitors had to work too hard to find relevant information and understand why they should choose SJA.
  • Outdated design: The website’s visual design felt outdated and did not fully reflect SJA’s modern, professional brand. The experience also needed to be improved across mobile devices.
  • No tailored user journeys: SJA serves several distinct audiences, including rental property owners, real estate investors, tenants, and real estate professionals. The website did not provide customized messaging, calls to action, or conversion paths for each group.
  • Underperforming content: Much of the existing blog content was outdated, repetitive, or no longer aligned with current search intent. SJA also lacked a clear strategy for ongoing SEO content development.
  • Limited conversion opportunities: The website needed stronger lead-capture tools and more deliberate calls to action to turn visitors into prospective clients.

The Solution

WebXd developed a digital marketing strategy focused on two primary goals: generating more high-quality leads through conversion-focused website design and building long-term visibility through SEO, AEO, and GEO.

  • Content and value proposition restructuring: We reorganized the website content and clarified SJA’s value proposition, creating a more focused and intuitive experience for visitors.
  • Modern website design: Through carefully selected typography, vibrant colors, custom graphics, and responsive layouts, we created a polished design that better reflects SJA’s professional brand.
  • Customized user journeys: We developed tailored user journeys for each target audience, using strategic messaging and calls to action to guide visitors from initial awareness to conversion.
  • Conversion-focused lead magnets: We created custom resources designed to answer common owner questions, provide immediate value, and encourage prospective clients to connect with SJA.
  • Content pruning and optimization: We reviewed SJA’s existing content library to identify outdated, overlapping, and underperforming pages. Valuable content was refreshed, consolidated, or redirected to strengthen the overall website.
  • Comprehensive SEO, AEO, and GEO: We developed an ongoing strategy to improve SJA’s visibility across traditional search engines, including Google, Bing, and Yahoo, as well as AI platforms such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot.
  • Strategic content and backlink development: We created search-focused content around the needs of Seattle-area rental property owners and supported it with a custom backlink strategy to strengthen authority and visibility.

The Results

The redesigned website launched on July 31, 2025. In the months following the launch, SJA experienced measurable growth in both lead generation and website visibility.

41.6% year-over-year growth in leads

From January through June 2025, before the website redesign, SJA generated 361 leads.

During the same period in 2026, after the redesigned website and ongoing SEO strategy were in place, SJA generated 511 leads.

That represents a 41.6% year-over-year increase in leads.

Increased website traffic and search visibility

Following the website launch, SJA also recorded:

  • 157.5% increase in new users
  • 80.2% increase in active users
  • 18.4% increase in website sessions
  • More than 5.16 million Google Search impressions

The analytics report on page 3 covers September 1, 2025, through June 19, 2026, and shows approximately 70,000 active users, 69,000 new users, and 103,000 sessions during that period.

Together, these results show that the new website and ongoing digital strategy helped SJA reach a larger audience while converting more of that visibility into measurable leads.

What This Means for Your Business

For a property management company, or any service business, a website has one job: turn interest into inquiries. When your content is clear, your journeys are built for each audience, and your SEO keeps working month after month, leads compound over time. SJA’s redesign proves the point. The design gets people in the door, and the ongoing SEO keeps the door busy.

FAQs

Results vary by starting point, but a conversion-focused redesign paired with ongoing SEO can produce significant gains. SJA Property Management grew leads 41.6% year over year after their redesign. The biggest lifts come from combining a clearer, more usable site with a long-term content and SEO strategy.

A redesign improves how your site looks, works, and converts today. An SEO engagement grows your visibility over time so more of the right people find you. They work best together: the redesign turns visitors into leads, and SEO keeps sending new visitors. SJA used both.

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) help your business show up in AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, not just in Google. More people now ask AI assistants for recommendations, so appearing in those answers is becoming as important as ranking in traditional search.

Conversion improvements from a redesign can show up within weeks of launch. SEO builds over months as content and authority grow. SJA's engagement ran from spring 2025 through mid-2026, and the strongest lead gains showed in the first full year after launch.
