Our SEO Strategy

To address these challenges, we implemented a tailored, comprehensive SEO strategy, focusing on both
technical aspects and content creation to improve overall visibility and conversion rates.

Keyword Research & Content Optimization

In-depth Keyword Research conducted keyword research targeting both transactional and informational queries related to vegan pet food, such as “plant-based dog food,” “vegan cat food,” and “best vegan pet food for allergies.” Buyer-Intent Keywords prioritized high-conversion keywords that matched user intent, especially focusing on long-tail keywords like “organic vegan dog food for sensitive stomachs” and “vegan food for senior cats”. Keyword Clusters grouped related keywords into clusters to optimize content pages and improve SEO relevance.

On-Page SEO Optimization

Unique Product Descriptions created SEO-rich, unique product descriptions that focused on product benefits, ingredients, and customer concerns (e.g., allergies, health benefits). Meta Titles & Descriptions optimized page titles and meta descriptions with targeted keywords to enhance click-through rates (CTR). Image Optimization added descriptive alt text to all images, and reduced image file sizes to improve site speed and accessibility.

Technical SEO Enhancements

Fixing Crawl Issues addressed crawl errors using Google Search Console and fixed indexing issues that prevented some product pages from appearing in search results. Improving Site Speed optimized site performance by compressing images and enabling browser caching to reduce page load times and enhance user experience. Mobile Optimization enhanced the site’s mobile-friendliness to ensure a smooth shopping experience for mobile users, increasing mobile traffic and conversions. Structured Data Implementation added schema markup for products, reviews, and breadcrumbs to increase visibility in rich snippets and enhance product presentation in search results.

Ongoing SEO Optimization & Content Strategy

Internal Linking Strategy

Internal Linking Framework created an internal linking strategy to connect relevant product pages, category pages, and blog content, ensuring that SEO value was distributed across the site. Related Product Sections added “related products” sections on product pages to increase user engagement and facilitate cross-selling.

Content Marketing

Blog Content developed a blog strategy around topics such as “Benefits of Vegan Pet Food”, “How to Transition Your Pet to a Plant-Based Diet”, and “Common Myths about Vegan Pet Food” to drive organic traffic and engage users. SEO-Optimized Blogs each blog was optimized around target keywords and linked to relevant product pages to boost sales and improve SEO rankings. FAQ Pages created detailed FAQ sections on product pages to address common customer concerns, increasing time on page and improving organic search visibility.
