About the Brand

The Vision

Founded in 2015, this fashion brand set out on redefining style through sustainability and affordability. With its sincerity towards eco-friendly practices, the brand quickly became a go-to choice for Millennials and Gen Z consumers.

The Challenges

By 2020, the brand was faced with several SEO challenges:

  • Dependency on Paid Ads: 70% of traffic came from paid ads, placing a heavy strain on its marketing budget.

  • Stagnant Organic Visibility: Despite efforts, keyword rankings remained low, and the site lacked strong backlink authority.

  • Engagement Problems: The high bounce rate and slow page speeds were impacting user experience big time – making it very hard to convert visitors into customers.

Problems Identified

SEO Challenges

  • Low Keyword Rankings: Despite targeting high-volume keywords, the brand was unable to land in the top 10 search results.

  • Technical SEO Issues: The website constantly suffered from irregular crawls, indexing problems, and duplicate content issues — hindering its SEO performance.

  • Weak Backlink Profile: The site didn’t have many quality backlinks, making it unnecessarily tougher to compete against other fashion brands in search rankings.

User Engagement Issues

  • Bounce Rates: 68%, of the visitors quickly left without exploring further or making a purchase.

  • Slow Page Speed: With an average load time over 6 seconds, the site was clearly frustrating for users, particularly on mobile devices.

  • Cluttered Navigation: Poor internal linking and an unorganised layout made it difficult for users to find what they were looking for.

Meta Tag Problems

  • Duplicate Metadata: New product launches lacked automated updates — causing overlaps.

  • Under-Optimized Tags: Many meta titles were generic or missed target keywords.

Content Issues

  • Keyword Gaps: Many product descriptions didn’t include important primary and secondary keywords.

  • Low-Quality Descriptions: Generic and placeholder content, like “Lorem Ipsum,” failed to engage potential customers.

  • Lack of Differentiation: Descriptions didn’t explicitly highlight what made their products stand out, like sustainable sourcing or unique features.

  • Missing Supporting Content: Key pieces of content like size guides, FAQs, and care tips were missing – increasing bounce rates, and obviously.

Solutions

SEO Overhaul

  • URL and Internal Linking Fixes: We cleaned up broken links and optimized navigation for smoother crawling and user experience.

  • Competitor Analysis: We performed a detailed competitor analysis to identify high-performing, untapped keywords.

Content Strategy

  • Keyword Optimization: SEOKart’s SEO Audit feature helped identify missing keywords and guided optimizations to ensure the site was aligned with user search intent.

  • Engaging Product Descriptions: The Content Checker flagged placeholders, and we replaced them with unique, customer-focused descriptions that were more likely to convert visitors.

  • Differentiation Strategy: We used SEOKart’s Keyword Analysis to bring out unique selling points for each product — helping them stand out in a crowded market. For example, “crafted from recycled ocean plastics” or “includes a 10-year warranty” were highlighted to resonate with eco-conscious customers.

  • Supporting Content: Essential content like size guides, FAQs, and product care tips were integrated into key pages using SEOKart’s Content Suggestions Module – improving the overall user-experience.

Meta Tag Optimization

  • Keyword-Rich Meta Tags: Bulk Optimizer helped generate optimized, keyword-rich meta titles and descriptions, ensuring each product page was discoverable.

  • Ideal Meta Tag Length: Using Meta Tag Length Validator, we ensured that meta tags met the ideal length, preventing truncation in search engine results.

  • Automated Metadata Updates: Cruise Control automated the process of adding new products, ensuring no duplicate meta tags and maintaining consistency across the site.

  • Personalized Meta Tags: The Rich Snippets and Bulk Optimizer features allowed us to create tailored meta tags, emphasizing product uniqueness like “RFID-protected vegan tshirts” which helped improve click-through rates.

Technical SEO Fixes

  • Page Speed Optimization: We reduced load times by 50% by compressing images and implementing lazy loading – making the site faster and more mobile-friendly.

  • Mobile Optimization: We implemented a mobile-first design approach, which optimized the site’s usability on smartphones and tablets — improving engagement across devices.

  • Rich Snippets Integration: Structured data was added to product pages, enhancing visibility in search results by displaying product ratings, prices, and availability directly in the SERPs.
