Construction Crowd is an online construction business directory where you can find and discover new connections with General Contractors, Architects, Engineers, Designers, Suppliers and Developers to build lasting relationships and gaining visibility for your own business in US and Canada.
The SEO challenge that we faced at the beginning of the campaign was the proper keyword research & targeting with focused on page optimization. The lack of Google Indexing of all the website pages and important on-page parameters (page titles, meta descriptions, header tags, canonical links) were main hurdles that we need to conquer. Above all, the major challenge was:
YourSEOPick team came out with following findings that were barriers for Construction Crowd’s poor performance on search engines.
Title tags are the most important on-site element to influence rankings. Title tags should be unique for each page with the brand at the end and the primary keyword at the beginning. Adding a unique title tag to each page summarizing the focus of the page will improve relevance and search engine rankings for targeted keywords. In previous title tags, we found that primary targeted keywords were not highlighted in titles.
Meta descriptions are displayed in search results much like paid advertisements. Optimized meta descriptions are known to improve click through rate. Meta descriptions should include a call to action and align with the title and H1 tag of a page. In old meta descriptions, we found that primary keywords were not used.
With continuous algorithm updates, the search engine giant, Google, emphasized on saving low page load times in order to improve user experience. In his update, Matt Cutts, Google’s Webspam team head, specified that the new algorithm update will consider site's page load time as an important factor for rankings. While technical assessment, YourSEOPick team tested the page load time & found that site takes 13 seconds which was slower than 84% of all tested websites.
The main factors that contributed to high load time were large css files, improperly optimized images & scripts, missing browser caching etc.
Heading tags outline the hierarchy of content and must be unique to each page to help search crawlers understand the topical focus for a specific page and its subsections. Adding unique H1 heading tags to each page summarizing the focus of the page will improve relevance and search engine rankings for targeted keywords. During our technical assessment, we found that no h1 header tag is used on the homepage of site.
The domain authority of site is an important factor that ranks the site as high- quality or low- quality. It is measured on a 100 point scale, with any site above 40 being considered a fairly good quality site, and sites above 70 being considered truly high quality. When YourSEOPick team tested Construction Crowd’s domain authority as compared to competitors, we found that it was 15 (out of 100) which states that the site's quality is low in terms of trust & authority & requires attention.
If you are taking your business over the internet with the help of your business website, you will have to increase your organic traffic. As Construction Crowd intended to convert visitors all over USA and Canada, we started with gaining maximum traffic from these locations which can be converted into customers.On-page optimization had to be taken into account first, followed by off-page optimization and build high quality relevant backlinks by increasing backlinks, social reach, and online promotion.
Prevailing website was assessed against a list of checkpoints including major ones like website errors, design issues, links, meta tags, article content quality, robots.txt, file size, alt tags, image optimization & xml etc.
After completion of website audit, major issues found with website were as follows,Extensive keyword research on keywords like “construction contractors online resource directory”, “construction industry online directory”,”commercial business listings canada” etc.. was performed using keyword research tool like Google Ads.
Onpage optimization being the most demanding aspect of Construction Crowd, was performed with content optimization in core of all onpage factors. Google webmasters tools and Google Analytics Account was set up to crawl and track the website errors & analyse the website traffic respectively. Apart from this, Construction Crowd was also optimized for SEO Friendly URLs, Image Size & Alt Text, Meta Title & Meta Description, linking structure and various other onpage factors.
Website assessment for errors, bugs, content mistakes and usability was performed to check out website's SEO health after onpage optimization.
As Construction Crowd targeted all over Canada and USA, the core strategy for off-page optimization was set towards creating high quality natural backlinks, and social influence back links along with niche backlinks that could significantly help this kind of site to get higher rankings.We initiated by doing Article Submission in high pr quality Article Submission sites.
At the later stage, YourSEOPick team continuously kept going with content sharing comprising of Blog Submissions, Blog Bookmarking, that are of high authority & PR (page rank) with maximum visits & clicks.
One key indicator of the success of this type of SEO campaign is based on how well non-branded search terms, terms that do not include the root of the company name, drive traffic to the site. In reviewing the Analytics for Construction Crowd, we found a drastic increase in organic search traffic for key phrases that do not include the root of the client’s company name.
Within a short period of time, we were able to hit the bull's eye by achieving the increased non-branded organic traffic & accomplished the following targets:
