Case Study: Google Featured Snippet - Top of Waikiki

Background: Top of Waikiki (TOW) was Hawai‘i’s only revolving restaurant, opened in 1965 and sadly forced to close in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This iconic restaurant served Hawai‘i Regional Steak & Seafood, along with creative craft cocktails, and boasted panoramic, ever-changing views of Waikīkī and the Honolulu city lights.

‍

Vibe created multiple pieces of web content monthly for TOW’s website from 2018 - 2020. In January 2020, Vibe’s content earned TOW a coveted Google Featured Snippet for a blog called “7 Reasons Why Ice Cream is Good For You” featuring a local vendor of ice cream sold at the restaurant.

‍

Results: In the two-year period of content creation, TOW’s website achieved:

• Increased website users by 2.8% and new users by 3.1% compared to the previous period
• Increased sessions of 3.25% compared to the previous period
• The page featured in the Google Snippet received 99.15% of overall web traffic for the two-month period before the restaurant’s closing
