Overview
sat.japan is a boutique dining and hospitality experience with an ambitious growth roadmap. They needed a digital presence worthy of the venue, plus a way to own the search results for the category before larger competitors moved in.
The challenge
Where they started
- !
A generic template site that did not do the venue justice.
- !
Very little content targeting the category-defining searches in Dubai.
- !
A social feed that was beautiful but not strategic.
Our approach
What we did
01
Editorial site rebuild
A photography-first site built to feel like a magazine, with dedicated pages for the restaurant, private dining, chef spotlights, and press coverage.
02
Category SEO play
A content pillar strategy that owns every meaningful search related to Japanese fine dining in Dubai, tied to a reservation flow.
03
Social storytelling
A monthly editorial calendar that mixes chef stories, dish provenance, and guest moments, boosted with paid to reach a curated audience.
“The site made us the reference for our category in the city. Every review now mentions it.”
