Challenge

The challenge for USD was twofold: while they already had a technically advanced website, it lacked the necessary optimization to rank well organically in search engines. The site structure, content, and technical SEO needed an overhaul to improve visibility in an increasingly competitive software development space. With complex service offerings and a highly niche target audience, the challenge was to develop an SEO strategy that could clearly communicate the company’s value, attract qualified traffic, and convert visitors into leads. Additionally, ensuring the website’s scalability for future growth and staying adaptable to algorithm changes in such a fast-paced industry was critical.

Solution

To address USD’s challenges, I developed a comprehensive SEO strategy tailored specifically to their software development services. Key elements of the project included:

On-page SEO improvements, such as refining metadata, optimizing headings, and incorporating schema markup to boost search engine visibility for relevant search queries.
Content development and optimization by creating in-depth, keyword-rich blog posts and service pages that addressed the pain points of potential clients while highlighting the company’s expertise.
Technical SEO adjustments, including improving site speed, implementing mobile-friendly design principles, and ensuring flawless performance across all devices.

Results

The SEO strategy for [Client Name] delivered significant improvements across key metrics:

178 more total clicks year-over-year, showing a clear increase in organic traffic from 447 to 625 in the last three months.
251K total impressions over the last three months, a 104% increase from the previous year’s 123K, dramatically boosting the website’s visibility in search results.
Consistent growth in keyword rankings, with the site steadily gaining impressions, though there’s room for further improvement in average position.
Enhanced brand visibility, with a significant increase in the number of searches the website is appearing for, doubling the opportunities for engagement.
Focus for future improvements will be on increasing the average click-through rate (CTR) and further optimizing on-page SEO to continue elevating rankings and driving more qualified traffic.
