The problem the client came to us with was the lack of visitors on the website, low sales and application rates as well as low positions in SERP.
Our team had the following tasks:
- Conduct an SEO audit of the old site and take this data into account when configuring the SEO templates on the new site
- Connect the https certificate
- Perform analysis of competitors
- Build a semantic core considering the 5 language versions of the site
- Fill in the meta tags
- Develop terms of reference for copywriters
- Increase the link mass
SEO audit
After the SEO audit a large number of duplicate pages, meta tags, text were found. Also, meta tags Title, Description, H1, and other errors were not filled in critically affected the SEO.
The answer of our specialist: "We scanned more than 400 thousand pages of the site. When we continued scanning, it was found that there were a large number of infinitely generated pages. Therefore, the scanning was stopped at 400 thousand pages when over 500 thousand additional pages were in the queue. The data below is based on 400 thousand pages.
We also found a lack of robot.txt and sitemap files."
Technical work on the site
Then began work on the technical side of the online store:
- The client came to us with an old engine, which was poorly adapted for search engine optimization. The previous site was using an unsecured HTTP protocol. We conducted a technical audit to understand what problems arise and initially avoid them on the new site.
- We made SEO templates for different types of pages in order to automate everything for SEO on our engine: H1, meta title, meta description, and user-friendly URL. The main goal was to show the site as high quality, ready, and structured for the search engine Google.
- All the technical work was done for the 5 language versions of the site.
- Redirects were set up, and pages with broken links were corrected.
Analysis of competitors
We analyzed the ahrefs output and looked at the DR of the main competitors. We also analyzed the list of keywords that were used by our competitors to get the most traffic from search. These keywords were added to the semantic core.

Work with the semantic core
Collected the semantic core of the basic language version of the site (Slovenia). We showed the most promising key queries. Asked the client to identify the most popular products and categories. Comparison of two lists - identified products and created categories, which had the prospects for organic growth.
Next, we changed the structure of some categories, so that they better meet the SEO practices and not compete with each other.
Development of terms of reference for the authors. Writing articles.
A term of reference was developed for each page: a list of keywords, the optimal amount of text was identified, and a content plan was drawn up for the article. They also made cross-linking for even weight distribution between pages. Then began the process of writing and translating articles, and placing them on the site.
Wrote unique meta tags for each page, and prescribed all the headings. The texts for the meta-tags were unique, included key queries, designed to attract users in SERP and motivate them to go to the site.
We wrote texts for guest posts (with anchors, and without anchors) and placed them on quality donor sites. The result was referral traffic and an increase in DR.
The result of the work
The result of the work was seen after a few months: the level of DR (Domain Rating) increased, the site began to be promoted by branded and non-branded queries, pages with the most popular products began to appear at the TOP.
As a result, 335 keywords got to TOP-3 and 649 to TOP-10. Organic traffic grew to 19K users per month. Domain Rating increased to 17 (before promotion it was 4.8).
