Common pain points
Why clients come to us
A website that's just an online brochure is a cost, not an asset. Four patterns we see most:
Site doesn't rank
Spent thousands on a build but no organic traffic — an empty house on the internet
Traffic but no leads
Broken UX, hidden contact buttons, untrustworthy design — clicks evaporate
Stuck on backend systems
Excel breaking, no booking/inventory tooling, no tech team to call — growth stalls
A cost, not an asset
Sites not designed for SEO + conversion on day one keep burning budget every month

Case studies — measured outcomes
Wellness / Retreat / Health Tourism · Surat Thani
+680%
Organic Bookings
Case Study: A Wellness Retreat in Surat Thani Province Grew Organic Bookings +680% in 4 Months and Hit Top 3 for 'Yoga retreat Thailand'
A wellness retreat in Surat Thani province sourced 82% of revenue from BookYogaRetreats + BookRetreats + Tripaneer at 22-30% commission — the steepest in the wellness OTA segment. The legacy Wix site loaded in 5.8s and didn't rank in the top 30 for any primary keyword. The booking flow was inquiry-based and took 24-72 hours per booking — 60% of customers gave up waiting and booked elsewhere. Multilingual content was English-only, missing DE/FR/IT/ES which represent the core wellness tourist markets.
Medical Aesthetic Clinic / Healthcare · Songkhla
+245%
New Patient Bookings
Case Study: Aesthetic Clinic in Songkhla — Top 3 on Google Maps + New Patient Bookings +245% in 4 Months
A mid-sized aesthetic clinic in Songkhla, 7 years open, had thrived on word-of-mouth — but post-COVID a wave of new clinics in the area pushed heavy Google Maps SEO + Facebook Ads, knocking the client out of the top 30. The 6-year-old WordPress site loaded in 6.8s with no mobile UX, no booking system, and forced patients to phone or LINE and wait 4-12 hours for a reply — losing 35% to competitors with instant booking confirmation.
Tourism / Island Hopping / Activities · Surat Thani
22% → 65%
Direct Booking Share
Case Study: Surat Thani Island Hopping Platform — Cut Klook Commission, Self-Reliance to 65% Direct in 5 Months
A tour operator in Surat Thani handling 80-150 customers/day across island hopping + diving + Full Moon transfers depended on Klook + GetYourGuide + Viator for 78% of revenue, paying 18-23% commission per booking — THB 4.2M/year. No in-house booking platform. Inquiries came in via LINE at 200+ messages/day that admins couldn't keep up with. Boat scheduling ran on a mix of Excel + WhatsApp group with 4-6 double-bookings per week, and zero SEO.
