The challenge

Where Ghost Booth Events started

Ghost Booth Events runs photo booth installations, signage, stationery, and content for weddings and high-end events in Melbourne. The work is genuinely beautiful. The website was not, and it was invisible in search: couples who saw a Ghost Booth setup at a friend's wedding had no way to find a site that reflected the same level of craft, and couples who had never heard of the studio had no way to find it at all. We rebuilt the site from the ground up, then built the content engine that now brings the studio a steady stream of couples in the planning stage.

What we did

The work, step by step

  1. 01

    Visual-first rebuild

    Full-bleed galleries, real wedding video, and portfolio-style detail pages that let the production speak before any copy does. Built on Next.js so it loads fast on the phones couples actually browse on.

  2. 02

    Service pages as the conversion layer

    Dedicated pages for photo booths, signage, audio guestbooks, decor hire, and stationery. These are the pages that rank for buying intent: the photo booth page alone recorded 39,965 impressions and 228 clicks in the period.

  3. 03

    A content engine for the planning journey

    Couples search for wedding wishes, ceremony scripts, entrance songs, and speech templates months before they book suppliers. We built a library that owns those questions: two wedding-wishes guides alone recorded 1.4 million impressions and 10,588 clicks.

  4. 04

    Streamlined enquiry flow

    A simple booking enquiry with the few fields Gina actually needs, replacing a back-and-forth email chain that used to cost the team hours each week, so the traffic the content earns has somewhere to go.

  5. 05

    Editable portfolio and blog

    The team can publish new event galleries and articles themselves, no developer involvement, so the site keeps compounding without a retainer for every update.

What made it work

The lessons that transfer to your business

Planning-stage content compounds

Couples plan for a year. Owning the questions they ask early (wishes, scripts, songs, speeches) puts the studio in front of them before any supplier search begins. Two guides produced 1.4 million impressions on their own.

Brand traffic follows content

A site nobody searched for by name now earns thousands of homepage clicks. Wide, useful content makes a brand searchable, which is exactly the signal AI engines use when deciding who to recommend.

Service pages convert what content attracts

Informational traffic is broad by nature. The commercial result comes from the service pages and enquiry flow that catch couples once they move from planning to booking.

Topical authority is measurable

110 pages earning impressions in one niche is what topical authority looks like in data. It is also what makes a business citable when someone asks ChatGPT for a Melbourne photo booth.

In their words
We couldn't be happier with our new website! The design perfectly captures our brand, and our clients are finding it much easier to explore our services. Thank you Ned and the Orkkid team for your wonderful work!

Questions about this project

Frequently asked

What results did Ghost Booth Events get from organic search?+

Between 29 April 2025 and 28 August 2026, gbevents.com.au recorded 17,864 clicks and 2,055,188 impressions from Google Search across 110 pages, with the homepage earning 3,024 clicks. The studio confirmed 176 enquiries from Google and AI search over that period.

What did Orkkid actually do for Ghost Booth Events?+

A full website rebuild on Next.js with visual-first design and a streamlined enquiry flow, dedicated service pages for photo booths, signage, audio guestbooks, decor and stationery, and an ongoing wedding-planning content program targeting the questions couples ask before they book suppliers.

Which content performed best?+

Two wedding-wishes guides recorded 10,588 clicks and about 1.4 million impressions between them. Guides on photo booth poses, wedding party entrance songs, non-religious ceremony scripts and maid of honour speeches each earned hundreds of clicks. Blog content accounted for about 78% of all clicks.

Does informational traffic actually turn into bookings?+

Not every reader of a wedding-wishes article is a customer, and we do not pretend otherwise. The commercial signal is the homepage (3,024 clicks, mostly branded and direct-intent) and the service pages (about 490 clicks from buying-intent searches), plus the 176 enquiries the studio confirmed from Google and AI search. Content builds the audience; service pages and the enquiry flow convert it.

How long did it take?+

The rebuild launched in 2024. The search data above covers the sixteen months from April 2025, which is when the content program had enough published pages to compound. Search results build over quarters, not weeks.

Can this work for other wedding and event businesses?+

Yes, and the same pattern applies to any service business whose customers research for months: own the planning-stage questions, build service pages for the buying-stage searches, and make sure both are readable by Google and AI engines. Orkkid's AI SEO program runs exactly this playbook.
