project start

Before optimization

Domain age: 16 years.

Niche: Travel related niche.

Traffic at start: around 600 daily visitors.

Real situation: The website was doing fine in some keyword groups, but there was a great potential in keywords that were ranking between position 11 and 30. Technical SEO optimization was limited because project is run on a custom content management system. Which makes it very dependent on the original developers calendar.

Unpredicted challenge was faced while working on that project. A world wide quarantine hit hard travel niche which reduced number of people traveling and therefore naturally decreased search volume in that niche.

Goals:

The client has approached us asking to perform SEO audit with a possible action plan for organic growth in Google search engine. After the audit, we worked out realistic goals to be set for 6 and 12 month.

Changes and jobs performed:

  • Full website audit
  • Onpage content optimization
  • Optimization for international SEO
  • TOP 10 competitors content analyzed and new content created for client
  • Existing content rewritten and optimized
  • Duplicated content removed or deindexed
  • 100 relevant blog posts added
  • Auto-generated sitemap created and submitted to GSC
  • Off page optimization started from the first month

Results:

  • Tripled traffic from Google search engine from around 600 to 1750 visitors per day
  • Increased time spent on website
  • Increase in total number of keywords in TOP 100 from around 6K to 25K+
  • Increased keywords ranked in TOP 10 from 448 to 840
