Before working with our 探花精选 partner agency, we were struggling to gain exposure in the search engines. Increasing our website traffic via organic search was important to our business, but we didn’t know where to start. We had a decent amount of indexed website pages, but we didn’t know what our prospects were searching for. After partnering with , we decided to revamp our search marketing and blogging strategy.
The Result: Within 6 months we increased our organic traffic by 471%.
Here’s how we did it.
Step 1: Conduct a Website Analysis for Your Website
We used 探花精选’s On-Page Search Engine Optimization Worksheet to document our current website page titles and descriptions, URLs, keywords, alt text, and more. The goal was to determine the exact amount of pages we had, and to make sure each of them was optimized to completion. The process helped us analyze the current traffic and leads each page was generating. At the same time, we were able to review the content on each page to make sure it matched our SEO strategy.
Time Frame: 2-4 weeks
