Case Study: Boudoir-Perfumes
Project Goal: Increase website traffic and sales through a comprehensive SEO strategy encompassing both organic and paid search marketing (SEM).
Initial Situation: Before the commencement of our SEO campaign, Boudoir-Perfumes had a relatively low online presence with limited organic traffic and minimal brand awareness within the competitive Greek perfume market. Website analytics revealed a high bounce rate, suggesting issues with user experience and website optimization. No prior structured SEO efforts were in place.
Strategy: Our multifaceted strategy involved the following key components:
1. Keyword Research and Targeting: We conducted extensive keyword research to identify relevant search terms used by potential customers in Greece searching for perfumes online. This included long-tail keywords targeting specific fragrance types, brands (if carried), and customer needs (e.g., “best women’s perfume for summer,” “affordable niche perfumes Greece,” “buy [specific brand] perfume online Greece”). This data informed the content strategy and paid advertising campaigns.
2. On-Page Optimization: We optimized the Boudoir-Perfumes website for improved search engine ranking. This included:
- Title tag and meta description optimization: Crafting compelling and keyword-rich title tags and meta descriptions to improve click-through rates (CTR) from search engine results pages (SERPs).
- Header optimization (H1-H6): Structuring headers with relevant keywords to improve site readability and SEO.
- Image optimization: Optimizing product images with descriptive alt text containing relevant keywords, improving accessibility and SEO.
- URL structure: Implementing clean, descriptive URLs that include relevant keywords.
- Content Optimization: Creating high-quality, informative product descriptions and blog posts focusing on relevant keywords and user intent. We also incorporated schema markup to improve search engine understanding of the product information.
3. Off-Page Optimization: To enhance the website’s authority and improve its search engine ranking, we implemented the following:
- Link Building: We pursued a strategic link-building campaign by securing high-quality backlinks from relevant Greek websites and blogs in the beauty and fashion sectors. This involved outreach to bloggers, influencers, and relevant publications.
- Social Media Marketing: We created engaging social media content to increase brand awareness and drive traffic to the website. We focused on platforms like Instagram and Facebook, which are popular in Greece.
4. Paid Search Marketing (SEM): To complement our organic SEO efforts, we implemented a Google Ads campaign targeting the keywords identified in our research. We used targeted ad copy, geographic location settings, and sophisticated bidding strategies to maximize our return on investment (ROI). This delivered immediate traffic and provided data to further refine our organic SEO.
5. Technical SEO: We addressed technical issues impacting SEO performance. This included site speed optimization, mobile optimization, and XML sitemap submission to search engines.
Results:
After six months of implementing our comprehensive SEO strategy, Boudoir-Perfumes experienced the following results:
- Organic Traffic Increase: A 150% increase in organic website traffic.
- Improved Ranking: Significant improvement in search engine rankings for target keywords.
- Sales Growth: A 75% increase in online sales attributed to increased website traffic and brand awareness.
