Success stories

Challenge

With a focus on a progressive and creative education environment, the challenge for the Woodleigh School website was to present an engaging, dynamic, and truly unique digital flagship experience, while balancing the more practical day-to-day needs of a school’s website.

Solution

The website contains endless instances of engaging illustration and animation — we affectionately refer to them as ‘microdoses of joy’. Working with renowned Melbourne-based illustrator Carla McRae, we developed a set of animated illustrations that represent the key stages of education through the Woodleigh School system. These illustrations have been creatively integrated into the website design, ensuring a seamless and intuitive user experience.

Result

The outcome of this project is a user experience that truly pushes the boundaries of what a school website is expected to be. Like Woodleigh School, the new website is one of its kind in its field.

Challenge

Limited budget and complex CMS Many technical SEO changes had to be implemented via MND Victoria's internal teams using documentation from Spicy Web. All content and keywords had to balance search optimisation with the compassionate tone required when discussing MND. MND Victoria had to compete with larger national organisations including MND Australia and FightMND for organic search visibility.

Solution

Resolved sitemap inconsistencies, canonical errors, and improved site hygiene. Deployed structured schema markup for key pages, including Organisation, LocalBusiness, WebSite, Service, and FAQs. On-Page Optimisation. Implemented a strategic off-page SEO plan, building high-quality citations and backlinks to increase domain authority and elevate page-one visibility for key queries. Restructured educational content to both inform and foster empathy, supporting conversion triggers like donations.

We’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with the SpicyWeb team on various brand activation projects over the past 12 months! They’re an absolute pleasure to work with; lovely, authentic, and genuinely down-to-earth, which is refreshing to experience in a digital agency. It’s clear SpicyWeb take great pride in their work, and that’s something every client will benefit from. Thanks, legends!

As someone who has worked in SEO for nearly 15 years, I'm generally a cynic about agency outsourcing. SpicyWeb is the real deal though - they are great on the technical side and managing the many different ranking factors other agencies forget, good at keeping track of many moving tasks, and very responsive. It was great to work with their team!

The team at SpicyWeb are the best Digital Marketing Agency I've had the pleasure of partnering with. They are so helpful and knowledgeable - not only do they work hard to deliver results for your business, they take the time to educate you so you fully understand what's being done and why (and to equip you with the skills for the future).

I enjoyed working with SpicyWeb's team a lot and they delivered a fantastic product. They stood out among other web developers from the very beginning not just for their expertise, but their enthusiasm for my project, and their willingness to learn and adapt their designs to the unique needs of my company's niche business model. Even when I had some barely-reasonable demands in the development process, they were always happy to assist and do the best their can, and still provide quality maintenance/monthly-update service even now.

We’ve been working with Spicy Web for about 8 months now, focusing on improving our rankings for unbranded keywords in highly competitive spaces. They’ve helped us clean up technical SEO issues and optimize on-page elements, which has made a noticeable difference in our rankings and organic traffic. Marcus, in particular, has been responsive, knowledgeable, and really invested in helping us succeed. Their work has been a big part of our progress, and I’d highly recommend them to anyone.
