The Challenge

While working towards the goals set by the brand, there were several challenges that required attention and action. These challenges included:

  • The primary challenge was to develop a technically optimized website that could deliver an engaging user experience and achieve higher visibility in search engine results. 
  • Another challenge was the low volume of organic traffic, with the majority of visitors being brand-focused users. This suggested that the website was not effectively reaching out to potential customers.
  • Besides the homepage and a handful of category pages, no other pages were indexed. This was a caused hindrance to driving traffic and increasing conversions.

The Solution

To address the challenges, the Infidigit team developed a comprehensive solution to improve the website’s technical optimization and enhance its visibility to potential customers. The key points that became the base of the strategy are:

  • Website Audit
