Fun Cases has claimed the #1 organic result on Google UK for "Phone Cases." The ranking did not happen by luck. It is the result of an eighteen-month SEO campaign executed by Webgro's in-house team.
"Phone Cases" is one of the most contested category terms in UK eCommerce. Monthly search volume runs into the tens of thousands, the competition includes every major retailer, and the term is hard fought by dozens of established direct-to-consumer brands. Ranking first is not a vanity metric. It changes the economics of the business.
What the SEO team did
The campaign was deliberately unglamorous. No shortcuts, no black hat tactics, no single silver bullet. Just a compound of sustained work across content, technical and authority signals.
- Content strategy overhaul. Category and collection pages rewritten around real buyer intent, then supported by a topic cluster of long-form editorial pieces that actually answer the questions buyers ask.
- Technical SEO. Page speed, core web vitals, structured data and internal linking rebuilt from the ground up to remove friction for both users and crawlers.
- Category page rebuild. Filters, faceted navigation and product grouping reworked to match how buyers shop, not how the CMS exports data.
- Authority building. Digital PR, partnerships and product placements that earned links from publications aligned with the brand, rather than chasing volume.
Ranking for "Phone Cases" is a category win, not a single keyword win. It changes the economics of the entire business.

Why this matters to Broadbridge Group
The Fun Cases result is proof of the operating model that Broadbridge Group was built on. Every brand in the group gets specialist agency expertise without the cost of hiring one, because Webgro is already inside the group.
That is the edge. Most direct-to-consumer brands of Fun Cases' size cannot afford a dedicated in-house SEO team of Webgro's calibre. Fun Cases has had one for years, at zero incremental cost, because it shares the group's capability stack.
What's next
The next chapter is defending the position and compounding the gains. Adjacent category terms, longer-tail queries, and a wider authority base that makes the ranking durable rather than fragile. The team is already two months into the follow-up roadmap.
