Treadmill rental shop ranks for generic Black Friday query with BOFU page

Gagan Ghotra highlights a clever SEO play by Mr Treadmill, a Brisbane-based rental company. Their Black Friday BOFU page ranked for the query "black friday 2026 deals treadmills" — a generic deal-hunting query with no mention of "rental" — alongside major retailers like Force USA, Lifespan Fitness, and Kogan.
The strategy: target a broad, high-intent seasonal query with a specific rental offer ("pay for 12 weeks, get 18" — effectively 6 weeks free). The page pairs the deal-focused headline with a Quick Answer block, structured sections (how the 12-for-18 offer works, booking), and local SEO signals covering Brisbane, Gold Coast, and surrounding areas — letting it compete against discount-focused e-commerce pages for the same keyword.
