01Overview

A strong business.
An underperforming platform.

Following our review of your website, technical audit and wider positioning, it is clear there is a strong business and offering behind Mac & Burg. The current digital setup, however, is not aligned with the level of opportunity available within a high-value, trust-led market.

At present the site has no meaningful presence in search for key commercial terms, lacks the structure required to capture high-intent demand, and does not yet reflect a premium, high-end development brand. Growth is reliant on existing relationships, referrals and direct outreach — not a consistent inbound engine.

The Problem

A platform that suppresses, rather than amplifies, a strong business.

The Opportunity

Reposition Mac & Burg as the premium, high-performing, lead-generating brand for property development across the region.

Key Problems Identified
01

No Search Visibility

Invisible for the commercial terms that drive enquiries.

02

Off-Brand Positioning

Presentation does not reflect a premium development partner.

03

Reliant on Referrals

No inbound engine — pipeline tied to existing relationships.

02Core Recommendation

Rebuild
the foundation.

We recommend a full website rebuild — a premium, search-led, conversion-first platform engineered for both presentation and performance.

The new site is structured around real search demand, optimised for SEO, PPC and AI discovery, and built to outperform competitors across the region.

Key Outcomes

  • Outperform competitors in presentation & structure
  • Capture demand across development, build & JV
  • Balance premium positioning with broad lead capture
  • Scalable platform for ongoing marketing activity
01

Premium Positioning

A contemporary brand presence aligned with higher-value developments and capital partners.

02

Search-led Structure

Architecture engineered around real, high-intent search demand across every service line.

03

Conversion-first Design

Every page built to convert — clear trust signals, decisive CTAs, and frictionless enquiry paths.

04

Technical Clean Slate

All legacy limitations and crawl issues eliminated at the foundation.

03Technical Audit

An 86% score that
hides the real story.

The site's health score is largely a function of its limited size, not strong optimisation. Below the surface, foundational issues actively suppress visibility, crawlability and conversion.

86%

Headline score

This score is misleading and does not reflect true performance.
