Brief Overview
Living Green Elephant Sanctuary (LGES) is one of Chiang Mai’s most respected eco-tourism operators, known for its responsible elephant experiences and guided nature tours such as the Doi Inthanon Hiking and Elephant Sanctuary package. The organisation’s mission is to promote wildlife welfare through sustainable tourism. Before working with us, their website received very little traffic and struggled to appear in international search results. Despite offering unique experiences, the business was not connecting with travellers who valued ethical tourism. After just six months of tailored SEO work, the results were outstanding — website clicks rose from 375 to 4,210, impressions climbed to 87,500, and the CTR jumped from 0.5% to 4.8%. The majority of their high-value keywords now rank on Google’s first page, generating strong global visibility.

Our Strategy & Execution
Authority & Link Building
High-quality backlinks were earned from relevant travel blogs, eco-tourism sites, and wildlife platforms. Triumph Digital also listed LGES on verified directories and created contextual links that built domain authority and credibility.
Technical SEO Enhancements
We improved site performance by optimising speed, mobile usability, and crawl accessibility. Structured data was added to strengthen search appearance, and existing technical errors were fixed to ensure full index coverage.
Tracking & Continuous Optimization
Weekly and monthly reports detailed keyword movements, impressions, and engagement metrics. Data analysis guided ongoing improvements, ensuring every update was backed by measurable results.
Content Expansion & Blogging
Our content team created educational, story-driven blog posts about elephant care, sustainable tourism, and nature activities in Chiang Mai. Each article was written to inspire and inform potential visitors. Service pages were also refreshed with SEO-rich, user-centred copy aligned with travel intent and seasonal interest.
Local SEO & Map Optimization
To enhance visibility among tourists searching locally, we optimised Google Business Profile listings, improved local citations, and integrated location-specific keywords. This helped LGES appear prominently in Google Maps and local “eco-tourism in Chiang Mai” searches.
Keyword Research & On-Page Optimisation
We carried out in-depth keyword research to uncover the most valuable search terms related to elephant sanctuaries, eco-tours, and responsible travel in Thailand. Using these insights, we re-optimised titles, headings, and meta tags while ensuring natural keyword placement across all content.
