# [How a Leading Audio Brand Protected Traffic During a Site Migration—and Grew Rankings by 49%](https://www.seoclarity.net/blog/case-study/audio-brand-site-migration-rankings-growth/)

*A leading audio brand* was migrating their website—a major shift that put organic traffic at risk. With the move from international subfolders to separate global domains, they needed a way to track performance, catch technical issues, and keep their SEO on track.*

## Challenge: Protecting Site Traffic Through a Complex Migration

The brand faced several SEO challenges in migrating their site:

- **SEO prioritization:** SEO considerations that weren’t factored in from the start, creating friction between dev priorities and SEO best practices.
- **Technical issues:** Redirects, page speed, hreflang, canonical tags, and sitemaps needed optimization.
- **New domain structure:** Moving from subfolders to separate global domains introduced risks of broken links, lost rankings, and indexing problems.

A standard site crawl wasn’t enough. The SEO team needed real-time data and deeper visibility to understand the impact of the migration.

## Solution: Eliminating Blind Spots with Clarity 360

Site migrations are complex, and [Clarity 360](https://www.seoclarity.net/technical-seo/) removes SEO blind spots, turning data into clear, actionable insights.

The brand used Clarity 360’s unified view to analyze key SEO data—*crawlability, indexing, rankings, and traffic*—and uncover critical migration issues. This helped them:

- **Track migration impact,** catching redirect errors, broken links, indexing issues, and orphan URLs.
- **Compare performance across global domains**, identifying ranking and traffic gaps.
- **Prioritize fixes based on impact**, ensuring the dev team focused on the most critical SEO issues.
- **Deliver clear reporting** via Clarity 360 dashboards and KPI tracking for leadership visibility.

- A +27.9% YoY increase in clicks
- A **+49% YoY increase** in Top 3 rankings
- A **+105% YoY increase** in notable brand term rankings
- **+20% improvement** in average rank
