EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Amsterdam automotive is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Amsterdam automotive dealers rank lower than national competitors online
Amsterdam's automotive market is dominated by national dealer networks and marketplace platforms. Local search visibility directly impacts showroom foot traffic and service appointment bookings—two critical revenue streams. Most independent dealers lack the technical infrastructure to display live inventory in search-friendly formats, surrendering leads to larger competitors. SEO isn't optional in Amsterdam's digital-first market; it's the difference between thriving and disappearing.
The 3 places Amsterdam automotive brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 automotive brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Customers were buying from national marketplaces instead of visiting the showroom. The dealership's website had zero inventory visibility in Google; local competitors ranked higher despite lower quality stock.

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Within 4–6 months, you rank consistently in top 3 positions for high-intent local keywords, drive 40–70% more qualified leads, and reduce cost-per-lead by 35–50% compared to paid ads alone. Your inventory sells faster, service appointments fill with zero phone dependency, and you compete confidently against national dealers in Amsterdam.
SEO Audit & Competitive Analysis
We analyse your current search visibility, inventory indexing, and how national competitors and local dealerships dominate your keywords. We map which vehicle types, service offerings, and geographic terms you're losing leads on.
Technical & Inventory Foundation
We implement schema markup for vehicle listings, fix crawlability issues, optimize your site speed, and integrate live inventory feeds so every car you stock ranks immediately. Your database becomes searchable.
Local Authority & Google Business Mastery
We audit and complete your Google Business Profile, build local citations across 40+ directories, generate review velocity campaigns, and create hyperlocal content (neighbourhood guides, service area pages) to dominate 'near me' searches.
Content & Keyword Strategy Execution
We create search-optimized content for vehicle inventory, service offerings, and local intent (e.g. 'best service in Grachtengordel', 'buy used Tesla Amsterdam'). Each piece is built to convert searchers into callers or bookers.
Monitoring, Refinement & Scaling
We track keyword rankings, traffic, lead quality, and booking conversions weekly. Monthly, we refine strategy based on search behaviour, seasonal demand (winter service, summer road trips), and competitive moves.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.

|---|---|---|

| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“We'd tried two SEO agencies before. Both gave us dashboards and monthly reports with no movement. Omakaase told us what was actually broken in week one and fixed it. Six months in, we're on page one for every term that matters.”

“By month three, our main product keyword hit Page 1. By month six, we cut Google Ads spend by 40% because organic was finally doing its job. That's the real test.”

“The weekly Loom is something no one else offered. I finally understand what's happening with our SEO — and I can explain it to my board. That matters more than I expected.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results?
First wins (top 10 rankings for 8–12 keywords) typically appear within 4–6 weeks. Significant lead volume increases (40%+) take 4–6 months as we build authority. SEO is not a sprint; it's compound growth. But every week, your ranking position improves and your cost-per-lead drops.
Will SEO work for my dealership if we're competing against AutoTrader and national sites?
Yes—but differently. You'll never outrank AutoTrader nationally. Instead, we dominate *local* intent: 'buy used Tesla Amsterdam', 'best service Grachtengordel', 'affordable family cars Zuidas'. This is where your customers actually search. Local SEO has less competition and higher conversion rates than national keywords.
What about Google Ads? Shouldn't we use both?
Many of our clients run both. Google Ads are fast but expensive (€180–€240/lead in competitive markets). SEO is slower to start but becomes your cheapest channel (€65–€120/lead by month 6). We recommend starting with SEO fundamentals, then adding Ads for high-intent keywords and seasonal campaigns. We manage the budget mix for best ROI.
How do we get our live inventory to rank in Google?
Vehicle schema markup + live feed integration. We implement structured data so Google understands your inventory (make, model, year, price, location). Within 4–8 weeks, your vehicles appear in Google Search and Maps. Each car becomes a landing page driving traffic to your showroom.
What's included in your retainer?
We offer retainers from €2,000–€10,000/month depending on scope. Most automotive clients start at €3,500–€5,500/month. This includes: keyword strategy, on-page + technical SEO, local authority building (citations, reviews), content creation, weekly ranking reports, and monthly strategy reviews. Setup fees (€1,500–€3,000) cover the initial audit and foundation work.
