The task

An improvement in the organic sales channel and an improvement in the rankings of the Futura pest control online store through rating, Content and steady, stable Link building.

Reason: The store had suffered some losses in terms of traffic and visibility due to Google updates but also due to stinging competitors. Proper SEO was still completely lacking.

Initial situation: Futura is already one of the market leaders - but the vast majority of keywords are not in the top positions, which generate the really relevant sales. The store is based on Shopware and no work had been done on SEO until the start of the project. 

The store and the structure have been around for years, which is why there is already a certain trustworthiness and authority in the eyes of Google. For this reason, we will not change the structure, even though it is not optimal.

The battle plan

  1. Phase: Text optimization & Onpage optimization Keyword-optimized texts for product & category pages, as well as Onpage optimization the whole website.
  2. Phase: Keyword optimized blog posts to related topics that the target group is looking for in the event of a potential pest infestation.
  3. Phase: through Link building on position 1 to 3
    Should be a worthwhile Keyword get stuck in front of positions 1 to 3 and do not improve, we use Link buildingto achieve these rankings as well.
 

Conclusion:

Below-average competition on the product keywords, strong competition on the content keywords. In addition, this customer had a rather old website, with many products, some Backlinks and a good position in the market. All in all: gute prerequisites for promising SEO success, but a lot of work awaited us at the start of the project.
