Agency Subscription Bundle: Omnichannel Keyword Catalog + Quarterly SEO Audit Service
Sell predictable recurring revenue with a productized omnichannel keyword catalog and quarterly SEO audits that measure online visibility and store visits.
Hook: Turn keyword chaos into predictable, recurring revenue
Agencies and publishers lose hours to inconsistent keyword research, and retail clients complain that online visibility never translates to store footfall. Imagine a packaged subscription bundle that delivers repeatable, high-intent keyword catalogs for retail clients and pairs each catalog with a quarterly SEO audit that measures both online and in-store discoverability. You get predictable deliverables, reliable recurring revenue, and measurable business outcomes your clients can sign off on.
Why this agency offering matters in 2026
Omnichannel is the top growth priority for retailers in 2026. Research from Deloitte shows executives place omnichannel experience enhancements above other investments. Meanwhile, tech changes like Google introducing total campaign budgets for Search in early 2026 reduce manual PPC work and force marketers to focus on higher-value strategy. An omnichannel package that combines search-first organic work with store-focused auditing matches both market priorities and the new tactical environment.
What clients want now
- Keywords that drive high-intent, local purchases
- Repeatable deliverables they can scale across locations
- Quarterly proof that content and local SEO actually move foot traffic and online conversions
- Predictable billing and clear ROI
What the subscription bundle includes
The Agency Subscription Bundle is a two-part productized SEO service: a repeatable omnichannel keyword catalog and a quarterly technical and performance SEO audit tailored to retail chains. Each part is modular so you can price and scale by client size and number of locations.
1. Omnichannel Keyword Catalog
Deliver a structured, repeatable catalog per retail category and store cluster. Each catalog contains:
- Seed keyword bank for category, product, and location modifiers
- Intent tags (transactional, local, informational, navigational)
- Search volume and competition score (normalized for long-tail)
- Seasonality and promotion windows aligned to category sales cycles
- SERP opportunity notes (map pack, shopping, rich results)
- Content templates and page-to-keyword mapping for store landing pages, category pages, and product detail pages
- Negative keyword suggestions for ad campaigns to reduce wasted spend on in-store pickup queries when not supported
2. Quarterly SEO Audit Service
Each quarter, deliver an audit that measures technical health, content performance, local visibility, and in-store discovery indicators. Deliverables include:
- Executive summary with top 3 wins and top 3 risks
- Technical crawl and index health report
- Local SEO scorecard per store cluster (maps visibility, GBP signals) — use local testing playbooks like those used to win local pop-ups and measure impact
- Content gaps vs competitors and prioritized content briefs
- Traffic-to-footfall correlation analysis where data exists
- 90-day prioritized roadmap with resource estimates
- Before-and-after KPIs to track next quarter
How it maps to retail omnichannel goals
Retailers need search content that solves two problems: prevent lost sales when interest exists and create convenience that converts. The bundle maps keywords to on-site product discovery and local signals that drive in-store visits. By measuring both organic metrics and store discovery, you provide a full-funnel view that executive teams value.
Key metrics you must report every quarter
- Organic sessions to store-level landing pages and product pages
- Local pack visibility impressions and clicks from Google Business Profile
- Direction requests and phone calls attributed to Google Business Profile
- Online-to-offline conversions like reserve-in-store, buy-online-pickup-in-store (BOPIS)
- Search visibility for branded and non-branded high-intent terms
- Keyword rank velocity for the catalog target set
- Indexed pages and structured data coverage for inventory and local schema
Productizing: workflows, templates, and tech
To make this an efficient productized SEO and recurring revenue engine, standardize processes and use automation where it reduces manual work without compromising quality.
Core process
- Onboard: collect account access, list of SKUs, SKU-to-store availability, Google Business Profile access
- Discovery: run competitor and category scans, extract search suggestions and related entities
- Catalog creation: build the keyword catalog, tag by intent and priority, map to pages
- Implementation support: provide content briefs and on-page templates, or hand off to client dev teams
- Quarterly audit: measure, analyze, and recommend improvements
- Optimize and repeat: refine catalogs based on performance and seasonality
Suggested tech stack
- Keyword and SERP research: Ahrefs, Semrush, or BrightEdge
- Local and GBP insights: Google Business Profile insights and API
- Traffic and attribution: GA4 and store visit data where available
- Site auditing: Screaming Frog, Sitebulb, or deepcrawl
- Automation: Python scripts, Google Sheets API, and scheduled CSV exports
- Clustering and briefs: LLM-assisted clustering with human review to avoid hallucinations
- Dashboarding: Looker Studio for client dashboards

- Direction requests, calls, and store visits where permitted
- Attribution checks and alignment with client CRM and POS where possible
Measuring in-store discoverability
Quantifying visits and in-store impact is the differentiator that gets buy-in from retail C-suite stakeholders.
Data sources and methods
- Google Business Profile insights for discovery, searches, and actions
- Store visits reported in Google Ads when available, and third-party footfall providers for large chains
- POS and CRM matches for store-level redemptions and loyalty check-ins
- Promo lift tests using total campaign budgets in Google Search or Shopping for coordinated short-term pushes
- Call tracking and direction requests as proxies for intent to visit
Attribution approach
Use a blended model. Attribute direct online conversions to website optimizations and map store visits to a combination of local pack visibility, keyword rank movement, and promotional activity. Where you have POS linkages, run simple difference-in-differences tests at the cluster level to estimate incremental in-store traffic.
Report what you can measure and be transparent about gaps. The goal is directional proof that keyword work correlates with real-world visits and sales.
Advanced strategies and 2026 predictions
Here are advanced tactics and how to future-proof the bundle as platforms change in 2026.
1. Entity-first catalogs
Move beyond keywords to entity maps: brand, category, product, and store entities. Search engines increasingly surface entity-driven results, so connect catalog keywords to entities and schema markup. This reduces churn when query phrasing changes.
2. Localized content templates at scale
Use LLMs for first-draft store landing content, then apply human QA and localization rules. This combines speed with accuracy for hundreds or thousands of store pages.
3. Short-window event optimization
Leverage features like Google's total campaign budgets to coordinate search and shopping campaigns during product launches. Use short-window keyword boosts and measure with the next quarterly audit. For event-driven stacks and POS-integration workflows, see playbooks for pop-up creators and short-window activations.
4. Real-time signals and inventory schema
As shoppers expect live availability, prioritize inventory structured data and feeds. Search engines and marketplace platforms will favor retailers that publish accurate, real-time stock and store-level offers.
Case study example
Retailer: Regional outdoor equipment chain with 120 stores
Problem: High local intent queries but poor store landing page visibility. No standard keyword approach across categories.
Subscription approach: Built 10 category-level keyword catalogs, rolled out store-cluster landing templates, and ran quarterly audits for each region.
90-day results:
- Store landing page organic sessions +42%
- Google Business Profile actions (directions and calls) +18%
- Attributed in-store visits +9% in tested clusters
- Client converted subscription to an annual contract and added BOPIS optimization as an upsell
Onboarding, delivery cadence, and templates
Set expectations with a clear, repeatable timeline.
30-60-90 day onboarding
- Days 0-30: Access, discovery, initial catalog delivery for 1 category
- Days 31-60: Implement prioritized changes, deliver content briefs and store landing templates
- Days 61-90: First quarterly audit, measurement baseline, and 90-day roadmap
Quarterly deliverable checklist
- Keyword catalog update and additions
- Quarterly audit PDF and dashboard
- Implementation tickets and content briefs
- Roadmap and recommended experiments for next quarter
Scaling and packaging tips for agencies
- Use bundles as a lead-in to long-term retainers and CRO experiments
- Offer white-label catalogs to publishers that sell space to retail partners
- Automate reporting and reserve manual time for insights and strategy
- Sell guarantees tied to process adoption rather than specific rankings
Risk management and trust signals
Be explicit about measurement limits and data dependencies. Use third-party visit providers for validation and include audit clauses for client-side implementation delays. Publish anonymized case studies that show before/after metrics and methodology to reinforce trust.
