Skyward SEO Boosted Mobile Leadgen Conversions by 200%
A real estate lead-gen agency had a mobile video problem. Slow load times were killing conversions on the device most of their visitors used. Then they switched to SmartVideo.
The Challenge
Skyward SEO is a real estate digital marketing agency that builds lead-generation funnels for real estate businesses. Video is core to those funnels — it educates prospects, builds trust, and drives signups. But on mobile, where most of their traffic lives, the video experience was working against them.
Mobile visitors hit the funnel, waited for the video to load, and bounced. The slow load times were eroding the very conversions the agency had been hired to deliver.
“We were experiencing extremely slow load times for our mobile videos.”
For a leadgen agency, slow mobile video isn’t a UX inconvenience — it’s a revenue leak. Jorge needed a video host built for mobile speed that could deliver instant playback to every visitor, regardless of network.
The Solution
Skyward SEO moved their funnel videos to SmartVideo. Powered by a global CDN with 125+ edge locations and adaptive bitrate streaming tuned for mobile, the videos started without delay — even on slower cellular connections.
Mobile-First Playback
Adaptive bitrate streaming and edge delivery meant funnel videos started without delay — even on mid-range phones over cellular.
Clean User Experience
No ads, no related-video distractions — just the message and the call to action, keeping visitors focused on the funnel.
Drop-In Setup
Existing embeds were replaced without rebuilding funnels — conversions improved immediately, no developer hours required.
The Result
Once SmartVideo took over playback, the funnel numbers moved fast. Mobile visitors stopped bouncing on the video, watched the pitch, and converted at three times the previous rate.
“We attained a +200% conversion rate increase in our Leadgen Funnels.”
“Simplicity and great user experience are everything.”
Tips from Jorge
Test on mobile first. Most leadgen traffic is mobile. If your video stalls on a phone, your funnel is bleeding conversions before visitors hear your pitch.
Keep the player clean. Every distraction — ads, suggested videos, branding — is a chance for visitors to leave. A focused player keeps them on your funnel.
Summary: Skyward SEO, a real estate digital marketing agency, was losing mobile leadgen funnel conversions to slow video load times.
