Adelia Risk
How we expanded 400-word compliance pages to 1,200+ words with FAQ schema, built a hub-and-spoke internal linking structure, and deployed founder E-E-A-T to earn page 1 rankings for “fractional CISO services” in 90 days.
Visit WebsiteChallenges Faced
Adelia Risk had deep cybersecurity expertise under founder Josh Ablett but a WordPress site that failed to communicate it. Thin compliance pages, no schema, render-blocking plugins, and isolated service pages meant zero organic search presence for high-value vCISO keywords.
Thin Compliance Service Pages
SEC, HIPAA, CMMC, and SOC 2 service pages averaged under 400 words with no FAQ sections — far below the 1,200+ word threshold needed to compete for high-intent compliance search queries.
No FAQPage or Organization Schema
Zero FAQ schema despite high-intent queries like “what is a fractional CISO” getting thousands of monthly searches — and no Organization schema to structure the founder’s credentials for Google.
No E-E-A-T Signals for Josh Ablett
Founder Josh Ablett’s cybersecurity certifications, CISO experience, and industry credentials were not structured anywhere on the site — invisible to Google’s quality assessment systems.
Isolated SEO Island Pages
Every compliance service page existed independently with no internal links connecting them — Googlebot crawled each page once and found no signal that they were part of a coherent expertise cluster.
