How Keenan Winery earned an 808% return on SEO

By Pamela, Founder & CEO at DigiVino · Updated June 27, 2026 · 4 min read

Keenan Winery, a family-owned, ultra-premium Napa estate, has trusted DigiVino for 16 years — website, SEO, social, email, ads, video, and now AI optimization. It started with a simple goal: grow online sales without a pricey ad buy. The SEO program alone returned 808% on the investment.

The challenge

Keenan was already a respected name — a World's Top 100 winery with dozens of 90+ point scores. But great wine doesn't guarantee online discovery. They needed to reach prospective customers who'd never heard of Keenan and convert them into buyers and wine-club members, and they wanted to do it through organic growth rather than expensive advertising.

What we did

We built and ran a comprehensive, annual SEO program: technical on-page optimization (URL structure, titles, headings, meta, on-page copy, images, and code), keyword-targeted link building, a steady roll-out of well-optimized content, expanded directory and search presence, press outreach, and monthly reporting to hone what worked. The same on-page strategy even guided two site redesigns — without sacrificing search traffic. These are the exact fundamentals that now extend to GEO: clean structure, real content, and signals engines trust.

The results

Michael understood SEO is a long game — and it paid off. Once the program took hold, the numbers climbed:

“We've worked with them at Keenan for 16 years, and at this point they're much more than a vendor — they're a core part of how we run our business. Website, SEO, social, ads, email, video… lately they've even been helping us navigate AI optimization to keep our digital presence sharp. We couldn't imagine our digital strategy without them.” — Matt, General Manager, Keenan Winery
“DigiVino has been responsible for a majority of our online marketing since 2011 — website, social media, SEO, email, sample program. They continue to grow the number of people online who buy our wines every year. Fantastic job!” — Michael Keenan, Owner, Keenan Winery
