Business Goals
This retailer of industrial equipment needed to:
- Recover from Google penalties and be able to rank for relevant terms
- Regain organic traffic
- Increase revenue through more online sales
What We Did
- Researched link profile:
The client came to us with a penalty after having worked with another SEO agency. We audited the website backlink profile to grade the quality of all inbound links to the site. - Carefully pruned undesirable links: The link pruning campaign involved link removal requests, nofollow requests and link disavowals.
- Submitted the site for Google reconsideration: After documenting the results of link pruning, a series of reconsideration requests were submitted to Google to reverse a manual penalty action.
- Improved internal linking: We applied a site architecture methodology called siloing to the website, structuring internal links between pages of the website in a way that supports the website themes and signals theme relevance to search engines.
