Research confirms that noise compromises and complicates a preemie’s recovery timeline in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
The SONICU System is a remarkable sound monitoring, data collection, trending, archiving and advisory system for controlling sound levels in NICUs & other environments where excessive noise is a problem.

Challenge
Sonicu knew from the start that they wanted to rank well for the keywords 'nicu sound monitoring.' We were building Sonicu's very first website and so they had no web presence and were neither indexed nor listed by the major search engines.Solution
Together with Sonicu, Small Box implemented a broad based 360 degree approach to Internet marketing and Search Engine Optimization (SEO). This broad front campaign promoted the company and website through multiple new media channels. Small Box helped lay the foundation for this with smart web design. We applied our proprietary nine-step search engine optimization process to optimize Sonicu.net for search engines. We also integrated the site with Compendium Blogware and, as part of the site's launch, Sonicu posted several articles to their Compendium blog about NICU sound monitoring. Sonicu founder, Chris Smith conducted an audio interview with Rob McNealy of Startup Story Radio which was then released as a pod cast. Chris Smith also participated in an email interview with a niche industry blog, NICU101.com.Results
Within a month of the site's launch, Small Box together with Sonicu achieved some dramatic results. Not only was Sonicu.net the #1 listing for 'nicu sound monitoring,' but Sonicu captured every ranking on Google's page one with the exception of the fourth listing. The #2 and #3 rankings were held by Sonicu's Compendium blog posts. The #5, #6 and #9 rankings were secured for Sonicu.net through social bookmarking. Podcasts of the Rob McNealy audio interview with Sonicu founder, Chris Smith, secured the #7 and #10 rankings. The #8 ranking was held by the email interview with NICU101.com.
We're proud to have played a role in securing this valuable search engine real estate, but we could not have done it without Sonicu who wrote the blogs and conducted the interviews that have helped bury their competition.
