Our Findings

SEO Audit & Strategy

We conducted a detailed site audit and competitive analysis to pinpoint the challenges limiting the client's SEO performance and uncover opportunities to dominate search rankings.

Step 1: Comprehensive Keyword Research

Our analysis highlighted the immense search potential in this industry.

  • High Search Volumes: Keywords like "PR application Singapore" attract over 12,000 searches monthly. Across all relevant services, we estimated a total search volume of approximately 30,000 monthly searches.
  • Massive Growth Potential: A top 3 ranking could drive 10,000 monthly visitors or 120,000 visitors annually, presenting a significant opportunity to increase leads and revenue.
  • Competitive Landscape: The high search volume underscored why this niche is fiercely competitive, with companies heavily investing to secure the coveted Rank 1 position.

Step 2: SEO Audit Findings

Our audit identified critical issues holding back the client’s SEO performance:

  • Structural SEO Challenges: The technical setup of the website was not aligned with best practices, limiting its crawlability and performance in search rankings.
  • Content Gaps: Competitors on page 1 featured long-form, high-quality content with an average of 3,000 words per page. The client’s website needed significant content upgrades to compete effectively.
  • Domain Authority Deficit: The website’s domain authority was significantly lower than competitors, impacting its ability to rank for high-value keywords.

Step 3: The Execution Plan

Armed with these insights, we designed a robust SEO strategy to tackle the challenges and capitalize on opportunities:

  • Website Enhancements:

    • Collaborated with the client’s marketing team to revamp the website, improving content quality and creating dedicated pages for each service.
    • Integrated FAQs, call-to-actions (CTAs), and other user-friendly elements to enhance the visitor experience.
  • Technical SEO Fixes:

    • Optimized the website’s structure to align with Google’s best practices, including improving URL structures, fixing broken links, and enhancing mobile responsiveness.
    • Ensured proper implementation of meta tags, H1, H2, and H3 headers, and sitemap generation for better search engine crawlability.
  • Aggressive Link-Building Campaign:

    • Addressed the domain authority gap with an extensive backlinking strategy focused on securing high-quality, relevant links from DA40+ sites.
    • Disavowed toxic backlinks from previous campaigns to improve the website’s trust score.
  • Clear Communication and Client Experience:

    • Recognizing the client’s prior struggles with poor communication, we established clear reporting cycles, regular updates, and a dedicated point of contact to ensure transparency and alignment throughout the campaign.
    • Delivered detailed progress reports, ensuring the client understood the strategy and results every step of the way.

This comprehensive approach ensured that all aspects of the website and campaign were optimized, setting the foundation for sustained ranking success.
