41.64% Increase In An E-commerce Store In Mexico

Process & Strategy

In this part, we will go over a detailed explanation of the process & Strategy that helped this client get 40% increase in organic traffic and 81% in revenue.

Technical Audit

The first thing we did with this client was an in-depth audit, and since we were dealing with an e-commerce site with many functions and pages, there were plenty of opportunities to identify and resolve technical problems.

Content Audit

We started by identifying thin, duplicate content and orphan pages that needed to be removed.

Fixing Issues and optimizing Speed

After the 2 audits, we went ahead and started fixing the issues as well as optimizing site speed.

Competitive Analysis

After fixing all technical issues that the website had, we moved to conducting a competitive analysis to determine what strategies were used by the competitors and see any potential benchmark strategies that we can use.
We concluded that the niche is very competitive.

Keyword Research

The competitive analysis allowed us to run a content gap analysis, where we basically look for competitor keywords that the site isn’t targeting yet, and this became the basis for our content creation. We focused on keywords that correspond to the user's intent.

Content Creation

We developed a detailed content strategy based on the keywords research. The content we focused on showed that we had a deep knowledge of the products we sell, thing that helped us tremendously in improving our chances of ranking higher for relevant keyword phrases and increasing sales.

On-Page Optimization

Next, we focused on detailed analysis and optimization of individual pages. We went over each product page, collection and category.
We worked on:

Internal Links
External Links
Meta Descriptions
Image Optimization
Keyword Placements
H1 Tags And Page Title
Header Tags And Subheadings

E-Commerce Link Building Strategy

Our client came to us with a fairly underdeveloped existing backlink profile, meaning there was little need to spend too much time removing undesirable links to the site.
We quickly disavowed some of the lowest-quality backlinks and then, we moved to implementing the following link building strategies:

Skyscraper Technique
Guest Posting

Local SEO

Finally, we worked on creating a Local SEO strategy to gain backlinks and citations from local publishers.
Which helps both users and Google’s search algorithm to understand the business’ location. This was very important since our client operates within a limited geographic range.

Results

Over a period of 6 months, we were able to increase our client’s organic traffic by 41% and based on the internal data these traffic increases directly lead to an increase in revenue by 81%.
