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.
Lyon real estate is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Lyon real estate agents: ranking below portals costs you deals
Lyon's real estate market is fragmented across major portals like SeLoger and LeBonCoin, meaning independent agencies and brokers struggle to rank for location-based searches in Presqu'île and Part-Dieu. Most Lyon real estate businesses spend €2,600/month on digital marketing but allocate nothing to organic SEO—creating an opportunity. Search demand for 'agence immobilière Lyon' and neighbourhood-specific queries grows 18% YoY, yet fewer than 15% of local brokers have an optimised SEO strategy. Your competitors are either invisible online or relying entirely on paid ads.
The 3 places Lyon real estate brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 real estate brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Ranked 4th–7th for 'agence immobilière Presqu'île' and neighbourhood keywords. Most inquiries came from cold calls and referrals; organic search was negligible. Competitor agencies dominated page one with 3+ years of content. Their website was slow, had no local pages, and zero schema markup.
Built 12 neighbourhood-specific landing pages (one per district: Vieux Lyon, Confluence, Fourvière, etc.) with local authority content and agent bios

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
After 6–12 months, you own the top 3–5 ranking positions for your target keywords in Lyon. You generate 400–800% more qualified organic leads, reduce cost-per-lead from €150 to €45–€65, and build a sustainable competitive moat that portals and paid ads can't replicate.
Audit & Competitive Intelligence
We crawl your website and analyse your top 5 local competitors (Presqu'île and Part-Dieu focus). We identify technical SEO gaps, missing local pages, and keyword opportunities you're not capturing. This includes a local search intent analysis specific to Lyon's real estate terminology.
Keyword Strategy & Content Map
We build a Lyon-specific keyword strategy covering high-intent local searches: neighbourhood keywords ('villas Presqu'île', 'T3 Part-Dieu'), buyer intent ('acheter maison Lyon'), and agent/brokerage branded searches. We prioritise long-tail, location-specific queries your competitors ignore.
On-Page & Technical Optimisation
We implement technical SEO: fix crawl errors, improve site speed, add schema markup for properties, set up Google My Business with full optimisation, and create location-based landing pages for each neighbourhood and property type. Each page is built to rank and convert.
Content Production & Link Building
We produce SEO-optimised blog content (neighbourhood guides, market trends, buyer tips), case studies featuring sold properties, and video content for YouTube SEO. In parallel, we build local and relevant backlinks from Lyon business directories, real estate associations, and local press partnerships.
Tracking, Reporting & Optimisation
We set up conversion tracking (inquiry forms, phone calls, email leads), implement monthly SEO dashboards, and conduct quarterly strategy reviews. Every month, we refine based on ranking progress, lead quality, and conversion data specific to Lyon's market.
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.
| Omakaase | What we hear from most agencies | |
|---|---|---|
| Contracts | ✓ Month-to-month. Walk away any time. | 12-month minimum (standard) |
| Who's on your account | ✓ Senior strategist. Doesn't rotate. | Account manager, often junior, rotates 6–12 months |
| Reporting cadence | ✓ Weekly Loom video + live dashboard | Monthly PDF report |
| Attribution model | ✓ Revenue-connected from Day 1 | Rankings + traffic only |
| Cost transparency | ✓ You see where every dollar goes | Black-box retainer |

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

Director of Growth · E-commerce Brand
“Month-to-month contracts and no lock-in wasn't just a selling point — it forced them to earn our business every month. They always did.”

“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.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we see results from SEO?
You'll see technical improvements and early traffic upticks within 30 days. Meaningful ranking movement (top 20 → top 10) typically happens in 4–6 months. Full compound growth (300%+ traffic) takes 9–12 months. Real estate SEO is a marathon, but the payoff is massive: organic leads cost 60–70% less than paid ads and convert better because they're intent-driven.
Our website is old and slow. Will a redesign cost extra?
We can optimise your existing site without a full redesign (usually €3,000–€5,000 in technical work). However, if your site is seriously outdated, a redesign (€8,000–€15,000) often pays for itself within 6 months through improved conversions. We'll assess in your free audit and recommend the best path.
What if our competitors have been ranking for years? Can we beat them?
Yes. Competitors with old sites often have weak on-page SEO and poor content strategy. We target long-tail keywords and neighbourhoods they ignore, build superior content, and outrank them on specific intent keywords. Real estate is large enough that multiple agencies can rank for different keyword clusters.
How much does your SEO service cost?
Our retainer ranges from €1,200–€5,000/month depending on scope: website size, keyword count, content production, and link building. Most Lyon real estate businesses start at €2,200–€3,500/month and see ROI within 6–9 months. We offer a free SEO audit to show exact scope and pricing.
Do you guarantee page-one rankings?
No agency can guarantee specific rankings—Google's algorithm is complex. However, we guarantee effort: if we don't deliver 40+ keywords in top 20 within 9 months (based on realistic competition), we'll extend the engagement free. Our case studies show 90%+ of clients achieve top-10 rankings for target keywords.
