Our SEO Strategy
Cohley is at the forefront of connected digital. They needed a search strategy to help them get in front of their target audience - the brands vying for your attention on social media.
We focused our search strategy on educating clients – from executives in boardrooms to the marketing tacticians on the keyboards. We coupled informative on-site content with robust paid search campaigns to show these potential customers how content engineering and testing can benefit their business.
- Defined the value of “UGC”. This is a key component of the Cohley strategy and helped form the basis of our content calendar.
- Discovered competitive gaps in UGC content. Competitors content was low-quality, and some topics were irrelevant, giving us an avenue to success.
- Targeted high-volume topic clusters like “ugc for instagram” to build a foundation of organic traffic.
- Built our content strategy & early paid media campaigns with queries on influencers and UGC to build a brand presence and establish authority in a space Cohley should own.
- Created high-quality, research-driven content & paid media campaigns incorporating our target keywords to drive traffic from search.
- Went through extensive review processes with our client – an authority on the topic – to assure quality and accuracy of the content.
- Worked with the sales team to answer real questions that customers are asking.
- We tied our efforts to high-value, verified leads in Hubspot. Our main KPIs are populated from a shared hubspot dashboard.
- We also evaluated the all-in ROAS of our campaigns by tracking attributed revenue in Hubspot.
- We forecasted performance using KPIs that mattered to senior leaders at Cohley.
- Once we had a strong base of traffic generating content to get top of funnel users in our sales pipeline, we worked together to define what a good customer for Cohley looked like.
- With improved content, we gradually expanded into the lower funnel to drive more cost-effective conversion.
- We built our non-brand tactics around mid-funnel searches to balance volume and relevancy.
- Created and reviewed content before publishing to the site.
