Review: Big Ben Stand Up

in Case Studies, Local. Last Updated on October 10th, 2023

We were recently able to chat with Tomas Bonderud of Big Ben Stand Up, one of Stockholm’s oldest standup comedy clubs!

Online visibility for a standup comedy club is a priority, because as any local business it not only relies on referrals and word of mouth, but also on local online searches in order to increase foot traffic and ticket sales.

This Stockholm-based company is also a restaurant, bar and nightclub! It has something for everyone and needs to transmit that to it’s potential audience. Let’s see how they improved their online visiblity with marketgoo.

To understand the SEO challenges that Tomas is working on, let’s see what specific SEO needs a website like this has:

  • The need to optimize for local search across multiple languages
  • There is high competition for keywords
  • Online reputation is very important, with review management having to play a part in digital strategy
  • Acquiring high-quality backlinks can take a lot of work
  • Resource challenges: small local businesses do not have unlimited time or budgets and must work on most marketing and SEO actions themselves, in-house.
