Case of SEO for an online store of a natural sweetener manufacturer
How to increase organic traffic to your website by almost 888% and triple your organic revenue
#SEO
Input data
Client: an online store of a manufacturer of natural sweeteners and sugar-free products.
Project duration: 11 months.
Team: project manager, SEO specialist, copywriter, editor.
Problem: High competition in the natural sweetener niche made it difficult to promote the site in search. Most of the traffic was informational requests, and commercial pages did not receive sufficient visibility. There was also a lack of growth in conversions, which indicated the need to optimize the content and improve the site structure to work with the target audience.
Tasks
increase commercial traffic by optimizing category pages and product cards;
convert informational traffic into commercial traffic by implementing internal linking, adding relevant CTAs to content, and creating blocks that encourage purchase;
increase the share of non-branded traffic by expanding semantics and creating new landing pages.
List of works:
1
/
We analyzed the niche and competitor sites. We singled out the market leaders and analyzed their sites. We formed a general vision of the promotion strategy and identified the most promising areas of development.
2
/
We collected and clustered the semantic core. During the analysis of the semantic core, information requests were found that led to commercial pages. Therefore, we reassembled the semantic core and singled out those queries that can potentially lead to conversions.
3
/
We optimized the metadata. Meta tags were written and posted for all pages of the site. We ensured that meta tags were consistent with the semantic core and structure of the site.
4
/
We carried out technical optimization. We checked the site for technical errors, created a technical specification for their correction, and implemented changes (added some types of micro markup to the site pages, improved its loading speed on mobile devices).
5
/
We filled the site with content. Wrote and placed texts on the target pages of the site. We prepared optimized texts taking into account priority queries and page structure.
6
/
We carried out off-page optimization. Starting from the 2nd month, we increased the number of quality donors and selected thematic sites with high indicators of organic traffic and DR, etc.
7
/
We have expanded the structure. We developed new pages and optimized them to enhance commercial traffic.
8
/
We worked on the blog pages. A significant share of information traffic was converted into commercial traffic through the implementation of technical optimizations.
