Manufacturing & Transportation Media (B2B Podcast)

Tank Truck Talk

The Problem:

Tank Truck Talk had great guests and stories — including NASCAR driver Spencer Boyd — but their podcast had virtually no search visibility. Episodes weren't being found on Google and organic traffic was near zero.

Goal:

Podcast SEO + Technical SEO + Content Optimization

The Challenge

Tank Truck Talk had built an impressive lineup of industry guests and episodes, but their content was invisible to search engines. Growing a B2B podcast audience requires making every episode findable.

Low Google visibility for podcast episodes — most weren't indexed at all

Zero non-branded keyword traction despite covering unique niche topics

No blog posts, show notes, or transcript content to support discoverability

Minimal organic traffic with only ~90 visitors per month at engagement start

Project Goals

Our strategy centered on turning every episode into a searchable, indexable asset that professionals in the tank trucking industry could discover organically.

Drive SEO traffic for podcast episodes, guests, and tank trucking topics

Build brand authority for Tank Truck Talk and Amthor International in the industry

Establish topical authority for longtail trucking, safety, and equipment keywords
