Our Goal
AI Search Visibility Growth

Single Grain Marketing’s high-conversion content framework differentiated LS Building Products in AI search, resulting in impressive outcomes such as increased traffic and quote requests. They optimized content to enhance visibility on AI search and increase conversions, resulting in a rise in organic traffic and compounding monthly quote requests.

 

  • Interactive tools & calculators (e.g., stair, framing, roofing, decking): High-engagement pages that became traffic magnets and lead capture tools.
  • Product-focused blog content: Educational posts covering product comparisons, installation guides, design planning, maintenance, trends, and home value. These helped establish authority, improve rankings, and build trust.
  • Optimized e-commerce product pages: Conversion-focused pages for high-demand products (windows, siding, decking, structural materials).
  • Location & brand pages: Locally optimized pages (e.g., East Peoria Kitchen & Bath showroom, service division pages).

When we first drove this SEO strategy, it generated an impressive number of traffic, leads, and keywords. Over time, LS Building Products wanted to achieve these additional goals:

  • Adapting Content for AI: We needed to create content that would not only rank in traditional search but also be easily understood and sourced by AI language models.
  • Targeting High-Value Keywords: The strategy required identifying and targeting high-volume, high-intent keywords that would drive both organic traffic and AI-powered results.
  • Building Topical Authority: To gain visibility in AI search, we had to build deep topical authority around key product categories like siding, windows, roofing, and decking.

Challenges

  • Low website traffic: The site had under 800 organic sessions per month and was not ranking for many industry-relevant keywords.
  • Lack of structured content: The site had only a handful of pages, with limited information about product offerings.
  • Few conversions: Without targeted content, only seven quote requests came in from potential customers.

The Bottom Line

 

  • Over 400 AI citations and 6.7x more organic traffic
  • More conversions from increased monthly quote requests
  • Compounding growth

After a successful partnership and continued strategies, LS Building Products sought help from Single Grain Marketing to increase the number of AI citations. Single Grain created a high-conversion content strategy to increase visibility on AI search, with results compounding over time. This entailed rewriting their product pages to maximize conversions, optimizing their content for GEO, and implementing interactive content types like tools and calculators. Structured content and tools specifically made LS Building Products’ website easier for LLMs to parse, and their authority made them more citable.

The Results

Single Grain Marketing tailored content to fit this pipeline: AI discovery → product/location pages → quote requests. The enhanced AI visibility improved brand awareness, driving more traffic to product pages and boosting conversions.
