Digital Growth Diagnostic

Markiewicz & Co

Australian investment management and financial advisory firm providing wealth management, financial advice, SMSF, investment mandates, portfolio administration and institutional services to private clients and institutions.

Experienced full-service advisers whose offline credibility is not turning into online enquiries.

Markiewicz & Co has built real advisory depth and a broad service set, from SMSF work to institutional investment services, and that expertise is clear on the About page. Yet the site is not capturing the demand the firm can generate offline: organic traffic is only around 44 visits a month and the authority score sits at 8, so visible opportunities are being lost. High-value SMSF and institutional prospects who need focused evidence and clear next steps are likely dropping away before they ask for a meeting.

The good news:

The firm’s strongest assets are its established advisory capability across private and institutional clients and a wide range of specialist services. Search visibility is improving, with organic keywords rising from 19 to 60 and monthly visits increasing to about 44 in the latest month, and the site already has 33 referring domains and 46 backlinks. If the digital presence is aligned to that reputation, those assets could be turned into consistent, high-value enquiries rather than unseen offline value.

UX OBSERVATIONS

No visible hero message or primary CTA — visitors cannot identify the firm’s main offering or next step, which collapses conversion intent on entry.

Trust signals (licence number, office addresses) are present but buried and visually weak — this dilutes perceived expertise and reduces suitability signals for institutional or affluent clients.

Layout leaves a large empty content canvas and a cramped footer — this under‑signals digital competence and makes the brand look low maturity, increasing visitor scepticism and exit rates.

What this means:

With only about 44 visits per month and an authority score of 8, the business is missing straightforward online enquiries that would match its advisory capability. Keyword growth to 60 shows there is interest, but national search rank near 1,038,358 means that interest is not finding Markiewicz & Co when it matters. The practical consequence is continued reliance on offline channels and lost scale in attracting fee-paying SMSF and institutional clients.

The three gaps holding you back

  • Your online credibility is muted. The About page positions you as a leading firm and lists an advisory board and offices, but the homepage fails to show a clear hero, headline or visible proof where high-value visitors expect it, which reduces trust and increases exit rates.
  • Complex services are not clarified. The services section lists mandates, portfolios and institutional offerings, but the navigation is heavy and there are no clear pathways or examples that help a potential client choose between advisory, discretionary or portfolio administration options.
  • Search visibility is small and rising from a low base. Current organic traffic is only ~44 visits/month with ~60 keywords and an authority score of 8, so demand generation is limited and gains shown in percentage terms over 12 months are still small in absolute scale.

What's possible when these gaps are closed

  1. Turn reputation into predictable online enquiries

    Convert the firm’s offline credibility into measurable leads by focusing pages and calls to action where traffic already exists. With keywords up from 19 to 60 and 44 visits in the latest month, small improvements could turn passive visits into booked calls and discovery meetings.

  2. Create clear landing pages for each high-value service

    Make it easy for SMSF trustees, institutional buyers and high-net-worth clients to find tailored evidence and next steps by creating dedicated landing pages for the top services. Reducing friction for those three to four priority services will help the site rank for the most relevant keywords and guide the right prospects to contact forms or meeting bookings.

  3. Show proof where prospects decide to proceed

    Add decision-focused proof on the pages that drive brochure downloads and enquiries, such as short case studies, outcome metrics and adviser credentials where prospects convert. Replacing repetitive copy and placeholder fragments with three to five clear examples of client outcomes will turn brochure interest into qualified adviser conversations.
