Introduction

Today, it's essential for every business to stand out online. More than just a website, you need a platform that can tell your story, showcase your projects and interact with your customers. Passion Terrasse, an outdoor landscaping specialist, recently rose to this challenge by completely redesigning its WordPress site.

Rather than settle for a static design, Passion Terrasse wanted to create a dynamic space, where every new project would be broadcast in real time on social networks and visible to everyone. The objective was clear: retain the visual identity that has made them a success, while modernising the functionalities to boost visibility on the web.

In this article, we'll explore how the solutions put in place - including multi-channel distribution via Post Local News and simplified content management using WebEdit - have enabled Passion Terrasse to transform its site into an interactive, high-performance tool. We'll also look at local SEO optimisation, which has enabled this small business to climb into the top 5 on Google, despite modest resources.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, marketing manager or simply passionate about digital transformation, this case study will give you a comprehensive overview of the strategies and technologies used to succeed in today's digital world.

1. Context and Stakes of the Passion Terrasse Project

Passion Terrasse has built a strong reputation for its exceptional outdoor landscaping and personalised approach. However, despite a strong visual identity, their website was beginning to show signs of obsolescence: long loading times, an unintuitive interface for updating content and limited distribution on social networks.

The main challenges identified were:

• Guarantee fluid navigation while retaining the charm and identity of the existing site.
• Easily update content to quickly present new projects.
• Integrate a real-time broadcasting solution to interact effectively with social networks.
• Improve local SEO to attract more customers to the Geneva area.

Faced with these challenges, it was crucial to adopt a comprehensive digital strategy that went beyond a visual makeover to a complete rethink of the user experience and online communication.

2. Redesign objectives: more than a technical update

Rather than simply modernising the look and feel of the site, the main objective was to transform the way Passion Terrasse communicates with its customers. There were multiple objectives:

• Multichannel broadcasting: Implement a solution to automatically share each new project on social networks (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) to increase engagement and awareness.
• Simplified Content Management: Integrate the WebEdit editor, a tool developed in-house by Lumineth, which enables content to be edited and published directly online, in just a few clicks.
• Optimising Local SEO: Strengthen visibility on Google Business and Google Maps to attract targeted customers in the Geneva area.
• Valuing Recent Projects: Creating an interactive portfolio that highlights Passion Terrasse's achievements, making it easier to convert leads.

These objectives guided the entire project and led to the creation of a bespoke digital solution tailored to Passion Terrasse's specific needs, while remaining true to their image and history.

3. Multichannel distribution: putting your achievements in the spotlight

In a world where information circulates in real time, the ability to broadcast your news instantly is a major asset. For Passion Terrasse, the solution was to integrate the Post Local News widget. This innovative system makes it possible to create a 360° news feed: as soon as a new project is completed, the information is automatically relayed on the site and disseminated on social networks.

The benefits of this approach are numerous:

• Instant updates: New projects appear immediately, providing visitors with always-fresh information.
• Extensive visibility: Distribution across multiple platforms allows you to reach a diverse audience and extend the reach of your message.
• Intuitive interface: The simplicity of the widget means that the whole team can manage distribution without being a technical expert.

Imagine for a moment: a development project in an upmarket district of Geneva is complete. In a matter of minutes, thanks to Post Local News, the information is shared on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The result? An avalanche of comments, shares and increased visibility that translates into new requests for information.

4. WebEdit: Simplify the Management of Your Content

One of the obstacles to effective communication is often the complexity of updating content. This is where WebEdit, the content editor developed by Lumineth, comes in. Designed to be intuitive and easy to use, WebEdit allows the Passion Terrasse team to make direct changes to the site's pages in real time.

WebEdit's key features include:

• Inline editing: Modify text, images and even layout directly on the site, with instant rendering.
• Secure Interface: Customised access levels ensure that only authorised people can make changes.
• Time saving: This system dramatically reduces publication time from hours to minutes.

Thanks to WebEdit, site management has become more agile, enabling new projects to be put forward quickly and content to be adapted to market trends.

5. Local SEO optimisation for Maximum Visibility

In the local services sector, appearing at the top of search results is essential. For Passion Terrasse, improving local visibility was an absolute priority. Optimising local SEO involved several concrete actions:

• Updating Google Business: Regularly updated information, accompanied by attractive photos, helped strengthen the presence on Google Business.
• Optimised content: Texts rich in relevant keywords were integrated to improve the site's indexing by search engines.
• Google Maps integration: The site configuration has been optimised for better indexing on Google Maps, making it easier for customers to find their way around.

6. Presentation of Recent Projects and Customer Testimonials

Showcasing recent projects is a major asset for any company wishing to demonstrate its dynamism and the quality of its work. Passion Terrasse now benefits from an interactive portfolio where each new project is broadcast in real time.

For example, when a project to fit out a terrace in a chic residential area of Geneva is completed, the team quickly updates the site via WebEdit. The news is then relayed on social networks using Post Local News, generating strong engagement from web users.

Here's an authentic testimonial from one of our customers, Alexis Bel, which perfectly illustrates the impact of this transformation:

"Lumineth took care of creating our new website combined with post-localnews.com (their own social network) allowing our site to interact with our social networks and Google Business and increase our visibility on the web. Thanks to them, our book of business has increased 10-fold. We're a very small company, yet we're ranked top 5 in Google's search engine rankings. They listened to us at every stage of the site's development. The team is dynamic, responsive and friendly. I would 100% recommend this company."

This feedback highlights not only the quality of the solutions implemented, but also the importance of personalised support in transforming a website into a genuine growth lever.
