Client is brand new to the social media advertising space. Did not have a Facebook business manager account previously, and when we created, it said that their account is disabled, even though we did not do anything on the account. In addition, we were in a time-crunch because they have a seasonal offer and want to promote it as much as possible.

Fintech startup in a saturated market. when we started our cooperation we didn't know exactly who are our customers were, so I worked frequently with the sales team. We had to crack the right (B2B) keywords for the Google campaigns.

The Challenge of of Startup Growth

What’s good for the user is good for search. The biggest challenge of the SEO audit for On One Studios (and all companies) is maintaining a customer-focused approach when optimizing.

Every action in the audit must answer the question: how does this help the user on your website? Each tweak needed to embody the core drive of the company.

We came up with a human-centric SEO strategy to guide my approach. The web audit was designed to address three critical issues:

Understanding the company’s core value proposition and drive.

Great tactics mean nothing without a proper guiding strategy. Before I started any optimization, I spoke with management on what constituted the company’s core drives. By understanding their unique selling proposition, I could write copy that reflected their goals.

Addressing website architecture problems with user-centric best practices.

The website needed to make sense to customers. From URL structure to homepage navigation, I needed to make sure each click on the website made it easy to get to a sale.

Identify competitor SEO strategies to implement off-page SEO tactics.

A key pillar of getting a site to rank is the number of backlinks pointing to it. I needed to create a comprehensive, white hat backlink strategy to boost the site’s domain authority. By looking at who our competitors were linked (and linking to), I got a sense of the types of backlinks I was looking for.

The brand was struggling to acquire new customers and had no strategy with their paid media. I was able to create a strategy from scratch and eventually get them from breaking even to being profitable with their paid campaigns.
