The Challenge
In July 2022, they approached Netrocket for help. They offered a unique approach to ear training that was different from the popular methods used in the industry. However, only a few potential customers knew about the company.
Netrocket’s top priority was to increase its website’s visibility in Google search engine results. This was important to ensure that more musicians could learn about them. We realized that it was crucial to focus not only on national SEO but also on location-specific services.
Therefore, we offer promotion for the US, including specific areas like SEO services for Charlotte, NC, where there is a high demand for such training. This allows us to target relevant local audiences effectively.
The Solution
First and foremost, our SEO consultant for SAAS conducted a technical audit and a detailed analysis of the niche. We examined our client’s website structure, audited the landing pages, and studied the competitors before creating a comprehensive promotion strategy. This strategy included both on-page and off-page SEO for online course optimization techniques.
Execution / Optimization Process
on-page SEO optimization
- We fixed the technical errors identified during the audit.
- We collected all thematic keywords from users and keywords used by competitors in the promotion.
- We expanded the site structure using the collected keywords. Created new categories and subcategories.
- We performed on-page optimization for priority pages.
- We added relevant expert content to new pages.
- We wrote meta tags for each page of the site.
- We adjusted internal cross-linking.
- We resumed work on the blog and wrote several blog articles using informational keywords.
off-page SEO optimization
- We have developed a link-building strategy.
- We have posted materials on authoritative thematic websites.
- We have registered the company in business directories.
