Challenges
Wanting to increase their organic visibility within the eyewear and fashion vertical, 1001 Optical reached out to Online Marketing Gurus in December 2016. From this, OMG created an integrated SEO strategy that looked at strategic link building and expanding on category brand content and blog content.
- Client faced server issues affecting overall site performance
- Google Analytics conversion tracking was incorrectly implemented
- Blog content was not categorised efficiently to utilise URL hierarchy
- Large number of broken (404) pages which is not best practice SEO
Our Approach
Upon onboarding 1001 Optical, our Gurus uncovered the difference in authority compared to industry leaders like Specsavers and Vision Direct. Both referring domains and domain authority were suffering, and as such OMG opted for link-building and content creation to combat the difficulty.
Strategy & Execution
Build the buzz with Google My Business
Google My Business is a crucial platform for building your business profile online. By optimising 19 pages on Google My Business for each of 1001 Optical's local stores, OMG was able to significantly increase foot traffic and website visits.
Custom SEO to reach the top rankings
Making revenue impact with SEO is possible with the right strategy. Our SEO consultants implemented both technical and onsite SEO to optimise a website that attracts and converts all of the right customers.
