Project Overview:

The Fashion Class is a large, multi‑location sewing and fashion design school serving hundreds of students across New York City, New Jersey, and Virginia. With two high‑traffic NYC studios and over $80,000 per month in revenue, the business relies heavily on organic search to fill classes, camps, and workshops.

But after migrating from WordPress to Shopify, the brand experienced a significant drop in keyword rankings and organic traffic, threatening its most profitable acquisition channel. Technical issues, redirect errors, and missing metadata caused immediate visibility loss across core class and camp pages.

The Fashion Class partnered with our SEO team to recover lost rankings, rebuild technical foundations, expand service pages, and create a sustainable content engine that would support long‑term growth across all locations.


Key Contributions:

Technical SEO Recovery After Platform Migration: A full audit of the Shopify migration revealed broken links, redirect chains, missing metadata, improper canonical tags, and under-opimized URL structure. I collaborated with the SEO strategists to fix every issue, restoring crawlability and stabilizing rankings. 

Strategic Services Page Expansion: Before our engagement, multiple offerings were grouped together, making it difficult for search engines to understand what the business actually provided. I wrote and optimized dedicated service pages for kids sewing classes, teen sewing classes, adult sewing classes, fashion camps, and specialized workshops.

Each page included targeted keyword optimization, clear CTAs, conversion‑focused copy, internal linking, and local SEO signals. This structure helped the brand rank for high‑intent searches like sewing classes NYC, fashion design camps, and adult sewing lessons.

SEO Blog Strategy & Execution: To support both local and national visibility, I produced long‑form, search‑aligned blog posts including:

  • Discover Fashion Sewing Classes in NYC
  • Top 5 Benefits of Taking In‑Person Sewing Classes at The Fashion Class
  • What to Expect in a Sewing Class for Beginners
  • The Best Sewing Classes in NYC for Adults
  • Top 5 Benefits of Attending a Sewing School for Adults

These posts targeted informational queries, built internal links to service pages, and expanded the brand’s authority in sewing education.

High-Quality Backlink Building: We executed a quality‑first link‑building strategy targeting fashion blogs, education resources, and NYC local business sites. Strict criteria ensured every link delivered real value, including DR 30+, 1,000+ monthly U.S. visitors, and verified page-level traffic. This strengthened domain authority and improved rankings for competitive NYC keywords.

SEO Impact:

My work supported an SEO strategy that helped The Fashion Class recover from a WordPress‑to‑Shopify migration, regain lost keyword positions, and rebuild the technical foundation needed for long‑term growth. After fixing redirect chains, broken links, and missing metadata, the site stabilized and began climbing back into high‑intent local search results.

Dedicated service pages for kids, teens, adults, and camps created clear ranking opportunities, while targeted blog content strengthened authority across sewing education, fashion classes, and NYC‑based creative programs. A quality‑focused backlink strategy (DR 30+, verified traffic) further increased domain authority and improved visibility in one of the most competitive local markets in the country.

Organic search quickly became the brand’s highest‑ROI channel, outperforming paid ads and driving consistent enrollments across multiple locations.


Results:

Through this engagement, my work helped The Fashion Class strengthen its authority in sewing education, fashion design classes, and creative learning for kids, teens, and adults. The brand saw measurable improvements in organic traffic, keyword visibility, and local search performance across NYC, New Jersey, and Virginia.

Service pages became clearer and more conversion‑focused, blog content supported early‑stage researchers, and the overall SEO ecosystem evolved into a sustainable growth engine. For a business generating over $80,000 per month, organic search became the most profitable marketing channel, delivering high‑intent students without ongoing ad spend.

Together, we built a scalable SEO foundation that helped The Fashion Class compete confidently in the NYC market and continue expanding its multi‑location footprint.
