They approached Keen in September 2016 to re-design the whole website, making it multilingual and adding new content. The owners have invested heavily in top-notch diving equipment and had spent a good amount of money in the website re-design, however, it wasn’t getting a lot of traffic. They knew they had a great product they can sell, and were looking for ways to get in front of more prospects and grow their business. This case study focuses on how Atlantis Gozo acquired more traffic that ultimately resulted in more bookings. Step #1 Keyword Research and Competitive Analysis Keyword research is the foundation of every good SEO strategy. Finding the right buyer intent keywords can benefit a business immensely. In this task, one has to find out how people are finding the competitors and what are they typing in Google. Step #2 Level Up Your Site! The importance of a website audit for SEO success The SEO team performed an in-depth website audit on the client’s website. A website audit is a full analysis of everything related to the client’s website. This is done using the tool website auditor, to dig deeper through the entire site, just like search engine bots crawl the entire site. At the website audit stage, the Keen team reviewed over 20 different on-page ranking factors, including: Fixing broken links Improving the website structure Optimizing the website content Improving website speed Indexation management Improving or deleting any pages which have little to no value for visitors or which have been indexed by Google due to low quality score. Step #3 On-Page Optimization On-Page SEO is probably one of the most overlooked ranking techniques. For many Search Engine Optimization professionals, placing the main keywords in the title, description content, and H tags is all there is to on-page SEO. Here is a list of elements that Keen focused on: User Intent Optimizing Titles and Descriptions. Content Optimization Internal Linking Optimizing Image Alt Tags Copywriting Duplicate Content Issues Step #4 Link Building Link Building still remains one of the major ranking factors. A lot of proprietary data that can prove this. According to a case study by Semrush, total referring domains is one of the top five ranking factors. All things being equal, link building remains the go-to strategy for dominating one’s competitors. Step #5 Content Promotion Content promotion is something that Keen has been focusing on more and more lately. Basically, content (most of which is created and published in-house) is shared across different online platforms. Creating great, in-depth content costs money, and in order to get the maximum return on investment, content promotion efforts (getting the word out) should be a strategy every marketing agency should implement.
