Discover how we helped an industry-leading oil and gas recruitment consultancy revolutionise its marketing in just six months.
Despite our client’s huge success in the oil and gas recruitment industry, their SEO strategy needed a new lease of life.
Prior to working with Angelfish Marketing, our client struggled to increase rankings. While the volume of traffic to their site was good, the quality was dwindling, and they were also finding it tricky to pinpoint ROI.
The problem
Despite their dominance in their industry, a challenging website migration meant that their rankings had fallen, the quality of their traffic had declined, and they were struggling to effectively monitor ROI or lead generation through their website.
Essentially, they wanted to switch things up and ensure they had the right SEO strategy in place to accelerate their agency. Enter Angelfish…
The solution
Our client enlisted Angelfish to work with their marketing team and help them reach their SEO goals. They wanted to increase rankings, improve the quality of their traffic, attract high-quality candidates, and ultimately, get ahead of the competition.
Luckily, we had just the tools they needed to do so. Our team of inbound SEO superstars got to work straight away, using our proven Agency Accelerator programme to put a super slick plan in place.
This included:
Competitor Analysis
We meticulously studied the SEO strategies of our client’s main competitors in the oil and gas recruitment space, giving us the insight we needed to create a plan that set them apart from the competition.
Persona Development
Our persona workshops enabled us to dive deep into our client’s target audience so we could understand their needs, preferences, and behaviours, enabling us to create a bespoke, engaging SEO strategy.
SERPs Analysis
Through analysis of the search engine results pages (SERPs) we were able to understand what our client was currently ranking for and identify any opportunities that could inform our strategy.
Pillar Pages
Research complete, we crafted compelling pillar pages designed to appeal to our client’s target audience, providing information around their core services and informing the topic cluster creation.
Topic Cluster and Internal Linking
Internal linking is essential to SEO, so we created a structured internal linking system using the topic cluster model to enhance site navigation and user experience, whilst also improving SEO.
On-Page SEO
By optimising the pillar pages and our client’s existing blog content, we were able to create an on-page SEO strategy to maximise visibility on search engines.
Link Building
Our robust link building strategy was carefully designed to elevate our client’s website authority and improve those diminishing rankings.
Detailed Reports and Analysis
The key to successful SEO is to keep monitoring, analysing, and amending to make sure our strategies are as effective as possible and adaptable to market changes.
The results
The results speak for themselves with this one: our programme increased their organic leads by 248% and achieved a 142% increase in organic sessions, ultimately resulting in a 453% increase in ROI.
In addition, with a core set of agreed target keywords chosen based on commercial and strategic value to the organisation, our SEO programme achieved the following within just 6 months:
