Website Before the Initiation of Work

Initial Data (December 5, 2018):

In December 2018, the website was almost invisible in search engine results, which was unsurprising considering the lack of backlinks and a domain rating of zero. The project required comprehensive optimization and promotion efforts.

Project Activities

1. Strategy Selection: The primary focus was placed on optimizing key content sections and acquiring high-quality external backlinks. This approach contributes to improving the website's visibility in search engines.
2. In-Depth Site Analysis: A detailed examination of the website was conducted, ranging from its structure to SEO reports, to assess its initial position in search results.
3. Content Optimization: On-page optimization was executed, involving work on meta-tags, headings, and textual, and graphical content. The goal was to ensure the uniqueness and relevance of materials concerning targeted keywords. Subsequently, we expanded the pool of indexed content by adding new materials and enhancing existing ones.
4. Development of a Link Building Strategy: We aimed to acquire high-quality external links from authoritative resources. This stage played a pivotal role in strengthening the website's position in search results.

Throughout all project stages, we closely monitored visitor activity, studied their interaction with content, and tracked conversion metrics. This provided us with insights into the effectiveness of our approach, allowing real-time adjustments to the promotion strategy.
