How we brought a website to the top positions in Google and Yandex using SEO in a narrow b2b niche

In this article we will talk about how we have been doing SEO promotion for several years for a client working in the synthetic materials production niche. We will discuss in detail the strategy, tactics and difficulties encountered along the way. Read and share your opinion in the comments.

Hello, my name is Anatoly Politsyn - I am the technical director of an online marketing agency. We create websites from scratch and help companies attract customers through SEO, contextual advertising and targeting.

Several years ago, we were contacted by a client involved in the production of synthetic materials for the optical and technical industries. His task was to create a multilingual website with a product catalog, news and contact information. The client wanted to improve rankings in search engines and get ahead of competitors in order to attract potential customers.

We proposed the following solutions:

  • Develop a catalog website with an individual design and necessary modules.
  • Launch SEO promotion in the region with a monthly rate, which included technical optimization, project management, purchasing links, writing articles, changing the site structure, introducing hypotheses to improve conversion, monthly reports.

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is a set of measures to improve a website to increase its position in search engines for key queries.

First stage of work

The work began with filling out the brief, after which our technical specialists began developing the site. As a result, the client received a resource with up-to-date information about the company and its products.

Then we started SEO work.

Preparatory stage

We collected and agreed on a semantic core that included both low- and mid-frequency queries. For commercial queries like “buy” we used catalog pages. We have posted information requests in the “Articles” section. Jewelry-related queries were excluded as they were not relevant to the topic.

Launch SEO

  • We carried out technical optimization of the site taking into account the requirements of search engines.
  • We prepared and posted texts for the product catalog, working through product cards with key queries from the semantic core.
  • We purchased links for the region monthly.
  • Created articles for information sections of the site.

Difficulties along the way

Initially, traffic to the site continued to grow, but from a certain point, in the middle of the year, we noticed a sharp drop in traffic and the number of applications.

To solve the problem, we analyzed the behavior of site visitors and identified which sections require improvement. After this, we, together with the client, introduced a number of improvements, which led to a positive result in the first year of work.

Results of the first stage of work

The client was pleased with the results. We continued our work, moving on.

Second stage of work

In the second year of work we:

  • We prepared and posted new texts for product cards, updated content with key queries.
  • We continued purchasing links for the region.
  • We analyzed target queries that attracted visitors to the site, and adapted articles based on this.
  • We improved the site taking into account the hypothesis, additionally creating articles that answer frequently asked questions from clients.

Results of the second stage of work

The client was pleased with the development of the project, and we confidently continued work in the third year.

Third stage of work

At the third stage of work we:

  • We updated the texts for product cards, added new sections and articles with key queries.
  • We continued to purchase links.
  • We optimized the site footer by adding additional useful sections.
  • We expanded the menu structure, making it more user-friendly.

Analysis showed that users are more likely to go to pages with informational articles, so we improved internal linking by connecting pages to each other using links. We also added a feedback form to the “Articles” section so that potential customers could contact us immediately after reading.

Summary of the current state

Results so far:

  • Site traffic increased 12 times for non-brand queries.
  • 35% of queries reached the TOP 10 in Google and 30% in Yandex.
  • The cost of transition has decreased by 12 times.
  • We came in second place among sites in this niche.

Communications with the client

This case is interesting not only in terms of results, but also from the point of view of interaction with the client. At the beginning of his work, the head of the company dealt with all issues related to website promotion, but later, realizing that this required regular attention, he appointed his assistant responsible for the project. This allowed us to speed up the process and improve communication.

SEO is not a sprint, but a marathon. This is a process that requires time and continuous improvement. To achieve sustainable results, it is important to work on the site, test hypotheses and maintain constant contact with the contractor.

To get maximum results from SEO promotion, be prepared for long-term work and constant improvement of the site.
