Customer goal: Increase search engine traffic
Our comprehensive strategy involved in-depth niche and competitor research to identify key opportunities for improvement. We conducted an extensive technical audit to address the existing challenges, which included on-page SEO, keyword research, and website structure optimization.
To address technical issues, we focused on resolving crawling and indexing problems, as well as enhancing the website’s loading speed. Special attention was given to improving the URL structure to make it more user-friendly. Despite the technical complexities, our team successfully implemented core web vitals optimization to enhance user experience.
At the project’s initiation, we conducted a comprehensive technical audit of the “4rent.ca” website. This involved a meticulous examination of the site’s architecture, server settings, and indexing status. Through this audit, we identified critical issues that were affecting the website’s performance and limiting its potential for organic traffic growth.
To drive targeted traffic, we performed extensive keyword research, identifying relevant search terms and phrases specific to the real estate niche in Canada. Based on our findings, we devised a data-driven SEO strategy, focusing on optimizing existing content and creating new engaging pages to attract the intended audience.
Addressing the challenge of user-friendly URLs, we collaborated with the development team to devise a technically feasible solution. By restructuring the website’s URLs, we ensured they were more readable and descriptive, enabling users to understand the content’s relevance at a glance. This modification also positively impacted the website’s search engine indexing.
Understanding the importance of user experience as a crucial ranking factor, we prioritized Core Web Vitals optimization. Through meticulous attention to factors like page loading speed, interactivity, and visual stability, we created a seamless and fast browsing experience for users visiting the platform. This enhancement not only pleased visitors but also contributed to higher search engine rankings.
Throughout the 1.5-year duration of the project, we continuously monitored the website’s performance using various analytics tools. We analyzed user behavior, traffic patterns, and keyword performance to refine our strategies. With a data-driven approach, we made necessary adjustments to maintain the website’s upward trajectory and sustain its competitive edge.
After successfully implementing our well-structured process, “4rent.ca” experienced a significant surge in organic search traffic, firmly establishing its position as a leading real estate platform in Canada.
