TeachStreet is one of Seattle’s most exciting young startups. Staffed by one of the most capable teams imaginable, they are well on their way to creating the perfect site to help students find local teachers, tutors, classes and schools. However, they still grappled with the challenges of managing associated with hyperlocal SEM and SEO. We worked with their team to develop strategies increase their organic search traffic, and allow them to quickly launch market by market SEM campaigns. Here’s what they had to say:

TeachStreet’s all about connecting people with local experts, to save people time (and money) when they’re interested in learning new things.  So, when we wanted to improve our search performance, we figured we’d eat some of our own dog food and go out and find an expert.  We did just that with the team at Foundry Interactive.  We knew that they understood what was on the line, and how to plug into a team which was heads down pushing out one release after another. They’ve helped us with both SEO and SEM, and we’ve been amazed with the results.  We couldn’t be happier with the engagement.
