Our Strategy
Phase 1:
Our team analysed the competitor’s website to finalise high ranking and relevant brand keywords. We surveyed the category-based keywords and found the ones performing well in the competitive market.
Phase 2:
Slow website speed is a conversion killer and we acted on it right away. Google prioritises users first and the website must load in a few seconds. Our team stay up-to-date with the ever-evolving Google algorithm and know how speed indirectly affects rankings. We compressed images, made necessary changes and minimised dwell time.
Phase 3:
We went through the published content and incorporated relevant keywords to drive rankings. Furthermore, we fine-tuned the content to enhance its quality and carefully added keyword phrases to encourage organic traffic. We worked on quality backlinks to add value to the page for two months and then witnessed the desired result.
Phase 4:
We crafted meta tags using a series of keywords in order to inform Google about the webpage content. We made sure that the meta description does not exceed 160 characters, is compelling and acts as an optimised snippet of the content.
Phase 5:
We used Google Display, Dynamic Display, Shopping, Facebook Carousels and Catalogue sales campaigns for Black Friday offers. These options work as a store window to catch potential consumers’ attention and direct them to the brand site. For instance, Carousel ads allowed us to feature several products at the same time. We initially faced a series of challenges but later found cost-effective solutions that brought ROI, too. To identify and resolve the issues, we utilised keyword tools, Google analytics and Facebook insights.
