The challenge

HZ-Containers sells and rents shipping containers across multiple European markets. That means hundreds of products, each needing unique descriptions, plus glossary pages, buying guides and landing pages — all of it in several languages.

Traditional SEO for that catalogue is brutally competitive, and the team is small. Hiring the writers and translators needed to cover every product, market and language simply wasn’t realistic. Meanwhile, buyers were increasingly starting their research inside AI assistants, where HZ-Containers was nowhere to be found.

The solution

HZ-Containers put content generation on autopilot with FlowHunt’s AI workflows, and used AmICited to steer it with real data instead of guesswork:

  • Content at scale — unique product descriptions, glossary and educational articles, category and market landing pages, and multilingual translations, generated systematically rather than one at a time.
  • AI-first optimization — every page written to answer the questions buyers actually ask, structured so that both search engines and AI answer engines can cite it.
  • Data-driven targeting — AmICited surfaced the queries and prompts HZ-Containers was losing, showed who was being cited instead, and confirmed when new content started getting picked up across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini and Perplexity.

The results

The compounding effect of shipping AI-optimized content week after week was dramatic:

  • 177× organic traffic growth versus the pre-FlowHunt baseline.
  • Rankings for hundreds of keywords across both traditional search and AI engines.
  • Visibility inside ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini and Perplexity — the surfaces where buyers now start.
  • 19.3M search impressions and 1,000+ queries driving traffic over the period.

And the punchline: this was all achieved with one person managing the entire content strategy — the output of a 10–15 person content team, without the headcount.

Google Search Console — 353K clicks and 19.3M impressions over 16 months.

“Without FlowHunt, achieving this level of visibility would have needed a content team of 10–15 people. Instead, I manage our entire content strategy myself.”
