ORGANIC RANKINGS INCREASED BY 4X IN 12 MONTHS

The Legacy Group Real Estate is a Spokane-based team serving buyers and sellers across the Inland Northwest. Led by John Graham, the team brings more than 17 years of market experience, has guided over 5,000 families through a property decision, and holds a 5.0-star Google rating across 868 reviews. They came to us with a strong local reputation and a website that was not yet earning them the search visibility to match it.

THE PROBLEM

The Legacy Group was one of the best-known real estate teams in Spokane and almost invisible in the searches that mattered. The site ranked for 258 keywords in total, and the queries that produce real estate clients — “real estate agent Spokane”, “top realtors in Spokane wa”, “homes for sale Spokane” — were being won by competitors.

That gap was widening rather than closing. Buyers and sellers were increasingly starting their search in Google’s local pack, in AI Overviews, and in tools like ChatGPT, and a reputation built offline over 17 years was not reaching any of them. The team needed their digital presence to carry the same authority their name already had in the market.

THE SOLUTION

The partnership began in December 2024 with a full website audit, market research and master keyword study, and ran through April 2026 across three connected workstreams.

A keyword map built around how people actually buy. Every page was mapped to a single high-intent query, separating buyer research terms from ready-to-transact local searches.

Monthly content answering the questions buyers ask first. Long-form guides on timing, financing, inspections and first-time purchases, published continuously for sixteen months.

City and agent pages rebuilt for local intent. Service-area pages across Spokane, Coeur d’Alene, Sandpoint, Liberty Lake and western Montana, each targeting its own market.

Two Google Business Profiles managed as a channel. Twice-monthly optimized posts, category and service-area tuning, review response, citation building and GeoGrid rank tracking across the Spokane metro.

Technical SEO and site health. A standing technical audit with crawl, indexing and on-page fixes issued as prioritized recommendations each month.

Authority building through editorial placement and digital PR. Editorial backlinks and a syndicated recognition campaign that lifted the team into AI Overview and ChatGPT results for “best real estate agents in Spokane”.

A managed Google Ads search campaign. One tightly scoped phrase-match campaign with call conversion tracking, held at a steady monthly budget for the full engagement.

Reporting rebuilt as a live dashboard. Monthly narrative analysis moved into an always-on Looker Studio report, with LLM share-of-voice tracking added as AI search grew.

THE RESULTS

Comparing calendar 2025 against calendar 2024, whole years, so every figure is measured against the same months a year earlier:

  • Organic keyword footprint grew 298%, from 258 ranking terms to 1,028.
  • Organic search sessions rose 101.1%.
  • Organic search users rose 108.4%.
  • Engaged organic sessions — visits with real interaction, not bounces — rose 95.3%.
  • Total website sessions rose 105.0%.
  • Direct traffic, the clearest brand-awareness signal, rose 18.2%.
  • Referrals from AI assistants and LLM search went from 1 session to 18, with engaged sessions up 1,000%.
  • Organic search became the site’s largest channel at 50% of all sessions.
