SEO audit for Wijzonol

Wijzonol is a professional paint brand owned by Koninklijke Van Wijhe Verf, a family-run business based in Zwolle, offering a wide range of interior and exterior paints for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. The marketing team wanted to know where the greatest SEO opportunities lay. Based on our SEO audit, the Wijzonol team implemented the priorities, resulting in strong organic growth.

Challenge

  • The website caters to two target groups: professionals and DIY enthusiasts, each with their own search behaviour and information needs.
  • With such an extensive range, it was difficult to determine which pages offered the greatest potential for growth.
  • Target: 10% growth in organic traffic from Google by 2025.

Results

  • A significant increase in organic clicks for the colour pages in the second half of 2025.
  • Organic traffic grew steadily throughout 2025, and the target of 10% was comfortably exceeded.
  • In 2026, Wijzonol and Onder will continue to work together.


Starting point

The marketing team at Wijzonol asked us a specific question: where can the greatest organic gains be made? Investments had already been made in content and visibility, but there was a need for a clear SEO strategy.

We started with a SEO audit, structured around three sections:

  • Keyword research: Which search terms are relevant to both professionals and consumers, and where do the opportunities lie?
  • Technical SEO: How can Google crawl and index the website more effectively?
  • Content: Which pages offer the most potential, and what do these pages need?


Analysis

We carried out a keyword analysis based on input from Wijzonol, supplemented with our own data. In addition, we analysed the technical foundation and assessed the key pages for on-page SEO factors such as structure, headings, keywords and internal links. Based on this, we drew up a prioritised content plan with specific areas for improvement. We presented the audit to the Wijzonol team on site.

Three opportunities for growth

The analysis identified three opportunities:

  • Colouring pages:
    Colours rank well for both informational and commercial search terms. With better structure and visual content, there is much to be gained here.
  • Category pages:
    Pages relating to the paint categories have a high search volume but were still found only to a limited extent.
  • Less emphasis on generic product search terms
    Google is increasingly featuring large online shops here. Investing in your own content pays off more.

Implementation and outcome

Following the presentation, the Wijzonol team set to work on the areas for improvement themselves, in order of priority. In a follow-up session, we discussed the progress made and answered any questions that had arisen along the way. The results were not long in coming. In the second half of 2025, the colouring pages saw a significant increase in clicks compared with the first half of the year. Total organic traffic showed a steady rise throughout 2025.

This shows that the audit was certainly a success and, above all, that the Wijzonol team has carried out the implementation thoroughly.

The SEO audit as a starting point for growth

An audit works best when the in-house team is responsible for putting the findings into practice. That’s exactly what Wijzonol did. Using its own text and imagery, the brand continues to build a strong position on Google, even as AI-generated content appears more and more frequently in search results.

In 2026, Wijzonol and Onder will continue to work together on content and site structure.

Digital content manager Peugeot

Whether it's about content or technical adjustments, it doesn't matter. Martijn briefs this in a very clear way so that it can be implemented locally or by our head office in France. [...] Since the start of our collaboration, we have achieved great results. Keep it up!

Marien van Stegeren

Eigenaar Kitcentrum

When your online onderneming grows, expectations often grow too, in every area. To a large extent, we were in control of SEO and its interpretation ourselves. We found out that our own "general view" was no longer sufficient, so we engaged Bureau Onder. Surprising and clear. We have built up a fine collaboration, partly because Martijn also regularly visits our office with Eline or Mariska (depending on the case), which is very valuable to us!

Marten Stellingwerf

Webmaster

Martijn and Mariska make the SEO story understandable for the layman and are happy to think along with us. It is nice that there is a personal contact moment every month with an extensive report and the opportunity to discuss everything. After just a few months, Onder has already managed to achieve number 1 positions on Google with some of our webshop pages. We are very satisfied with Onder.

SEO Specialist Stella Fietsen

For several years, Onder has been a valued partner of Stella. Martijn is my sparring partner for complex SEO issues and the extra pair of critical eyes that keeps us on our toes. Together, we have achieved nice growth in online visibility, visitor numbers and leads. Onder stands out for its short lines of communication and professionalism. They speak our language: don't nag, get down to business. That is what we love!
