Meridian Auto Group

A automotive business that engaged OnyxRank for a 9 months retainer focused on technical SEO, topical authority, and revenue attribution.

Where they started

8-rooftop dealership group with rooftops cannibalizing each other for the same model + city queries. Inventory pages went stale within 24 hours and triggered thin-content issues at scale. Service department was losing local rankings to chain competitors with stronger LocalBusiness schema.

What we did

We rebuilt inventory page architecture with proper canonical and freshness handling, deployed AutoDealer schema across every rooftop, built city-specific service-department pages with LocalBusiness and Review schema, and consolidated brand authority signals to the group level while preserving rooftop-level local pack presence.

What the work produced

Service department bookings grew 186% over 9 months, generating $1.4M in attributable revenue. Local pack appearances grew from 12 to 47 across the 8 rooftops. Branded search volume increased 4.1x as the group's brand entity took hold across the metro area.

What's next

Phase 2 is expanding into 4 new rooftops with prebuilt SEO architecture from acquisition day, plus a parts-and-accessories programmatic content engine targeting long-tail aftermarket queries.

“We had been told for years that automotive SEO was different and impossible to do well. OnyxRank ignored that framing and just did the technical work. Service revenue grew faster than we modeled, and the rooftops finally stopped competing with each other on the same queries.”
