Work SEO & GEO
Arché Academy
Taking our own tuition centre from 34 to 663 monthly Google clicks with SEO and GEO
Arché Academy is a Singapore tuition centre for PSLE, O-Level and A-Level students, run by our founder Glen Teo. We run its SEO, GEO and ads with our own money. It's where we prove what we then sell.
The result
Arché Academy is our own tuition centre, so we run on it the same SEO and GEO playbook we sell. Between June and September 2026, clicks from Google rose from 34 a month to 663 in the first 25 days of September. Average position improved from 37.1 to 10.5.
What we built
Guides that answer exactly what parents search for: PSLE 2027 dates, secondary school cut-off points, O-Level to JC and poly admission, and PSLE English vocabulary. Each one opens with a short, direct answer, then the detail. That’s the format both Google and AI tools lift from.
It works. In the four weeks to 27 September 2026, the PSLE 2027 dates guide alone earned 220 clicks at an average position of 4. The PSLE English vocabulary guide earned 128 at position 4.7.
Showing up in AI answers
AI tools now send Arché real visitors. Google Analytics counted 1 visit from AI assistants in June 2026 and 28 in September. Over the 90 days to 27 September, ChatGPT alone sent 41 sessions that led to 4 key events on the site.
Meta Ads: what a lead actually cost
We run Arché’s Meta Ads with our own money too. Two campaigns, two jobs. One collects enquiries through a lead form. The other starts a chat.
| Campaign | Spent | Result | Cost per result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lead form | S$573.96 | 26 form leads | S$22.08 per lead |
| Messaging | S$42.78 | 18 messaging conversations | S$2.38 per conversation |
| Total | S$616.74 |
The messaging number looks cheaper. But a conversation isn’t a lead. Some chats are a quick question about fees and go no further. So the two costs aren’t directly comparable. What matters is how many of each turn into paying students.

Why it matters for clients
We test on our own business first, with our own money. When we recommend answer-first pages or a GEO programme, it’s because we’ve watched it move the numbers on a site we own.
