Approach

We developed an international SEO strategy that successfully reached English and Arabic customers across the middle east.

Technical SEO

After several workshops we had a good understanding of their market, and the challenges their platform faced. We delivered a thorough audit organised onto a roadmap with key milestones and sprints. Detailed tickets, guides and videos to help developers with a key focus on mobile.

Mobile revenue contributes 80% to overall revenue and with Google's mobile first approach we fixed parity across desktop and mobile. We cleaned up Google's crawl and shaped internal linking to support high value brands and categories. We cleaned up the structured data. Removed a manual penalty and disavowed links.

We optimised category pages and generated many combination pages like brand + category, category + colour. We eradicated duplicates and cleaned up product pages.

Improved their non-brand CTR by using strong commercial messages that stands out in a sea of sameness. We saw a huge increase in average rank after boosting CTR across thousands of pages.

Internation SEO

With consumers across UAE, KSA, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Qatar in both English and Arabic, having a solid international SEO strategy is imperative. We implemented hreflang, targeted regions and top cities and gained top rankings for local searches across many brands and categories.‍

"I have had the pleasure of working with Cartello since November 2018 till date. One of the initial challenges that we faced before Cartello came on was to deal with a sitewide Google Penalty for one of our top country website. This issue was handled seamlessly by Cartello and within 2 weeks our site's ranking was restored completely and we not only restored rankings but also scaled up organic traffic by more than 56% year on year. Cartello also helped is get on top of our technical challenges , seo content in English and Arabic and ensured that our app is fully optimized in the App Store which helped us gain more organic installs for both our iOS and Android apps. Cartello was also able to identify the SEO gaps and content opportunities in our Arabic sites and their SEO fixes and content service helped us outrank our competitors in Arabic and we experience exponential year on year growth not only in SEO traffic but also in revenue. I highly recommend Cartello's services for any e-commerce company that is looking to increase their organic traffic foothold not only in English but also in other languages as well. It is amazing to work with Pierre and Paul who are not only very professional and experts in SEO but also very patient to answer every type of question with regards to SEO and they take pride in offering excellent services."
