Let’s take a closer look at our customer’s financial services website in greater detail. We’ll go through the complete SEO strategy later. However, let us have a deeper examination of your financial service website in greater depth.
A Look Around the Site from a Closer Angle
A plumbing business contacted us in August 2021. They had only a minor presence and wanted to improve their rankings and visibility in the major search engines in order to attract more visitors. When they engaged us for SEO services, they had organic traffic from Google of 0 (numbers taken from Google Analytics).
Other businesses are offering services and attempting to rank in cities where they aren’t located, so they are entering a competitive market. Our clients needed to establish a solid foundation of relevant high-quality connections as well as create new ones through SEO-optimized content.
The Process: Analysis and Approach
To begin with, we utilized several Ahrefs functions to assess the Financial Website’s condition, including the following:
- Domain rating
- Organic Traffic
- Organic Keywords
- Referring Domains
- Traffic Value
We then utilized this information to develop a unique SEO strategy for each client.
Let's take a look at each step in our process:
1. Assessing the Current Situation
2. Developing a Strategy
3. Expanding the Existing Content
4. Building Links and Enhancing Visibility
5. Tracking Progress and Results
- Assessing the Current Situation
First and foremost, we needed to get an understanding of the current situation. This involved taking a look at the website’s backlink profile and conducting an analysis of their rankings for relevant keywords.
We used the Ahrefs’ “Domain Rating” metric to gauge how strong the website’s backlink profile was. A higher Domain Rating indicates that the website has a large number of high-quality backlinks from authoritative websites.
The website only had XX referring domains, which is low compared to similar businesses in the same industry. This indicated that they had not been doing much link building or marketing activity.
We also looked at their organic traffic for the past year and found that it had increased by XX%. However, this growth was not steady and had been increasing over time.
- Developing a Strategy
Based on our findings, we developed a unique SEO strategy for the client. We began by creating a content plan that would expand their existing content and attract more high-quality links. We also focused on optimizing their website for relevant keywords and improving their visibility in search engines.Expanding the Existing Content
We began by expanding the website’s existing content. We created new articles, blog posts, and resources that would attract high-quality links and help them rank for relevant keywords.
- Building Links and Enhancing Visibility
In order to improve the website’s visibility in search engines, we focused on building links from high-quality websites. We also conducted extensive marketing activity to increase awareness of the website and its content.
- Tracking Progress and Results
We tracked the website’s progress every step of the way, using a variety of tools including Google Analytics, Ahrefs, and SEMrush. We monitored their rankings for relevant keywords, organic traffic, and backlinks.
Keyword Research
After we’ve investigated the website and determined what needs to be improved SEO-wise, it’s time to start strategizing. We look for any possibilities within the current state of things that may help us rank keywords or discover new keyword opportunities that can increase traffic and sales.
We started by creating a keyword list. We then work with the client to establish a strategy based on this data. The first step in this process is to develop thorough content ideation and production plan. This covers everything from how many pieces of content will be created each month/quarter/year, choosing topics, researching competition tactics, coming up with headlines and meta descriptions, writing the articles themselves (optimized for search engine algorithms), photo research+sourcing reference images (if needed), and getting the material onto the website.
As a result of implementing this process for each of these terms, our attention shifts to link building using outreach efforts, guest posting, and social media marketing. We employ a variety of tactics that are entirely scalable depending on resources available to really start influencing search engine rankings in the major search engines like Google.
