THE PREMISE

Just Carpets has webshops all across the European market. With webshops in the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Italy, and France, they wanted to level up their growing international footprint. The challenge: becoming the strongest international player in the field of car mats in organic search results across the Netherlands, Germany, and France. Therefore, Seoone developed a strategy to achieve top rankings in organic search results across the countries of operations. We have also trained the Just Carpets team to work on SEO activities. This allowed us to work together in optimizing the landing pages from both a technical and SEO standpoint. Working together on this major project, made it possible to achieve great results.

THE STRATEGY

To start building the strategy, we analyzed Google Search Console and Ahrefs to identify search volumes and relevant keywords. We selected the keywords with the highest search volumes and identified the landing pages created for these keywords. We focused on two elements: internal links on the Just Carpets website and improving technicalities on the site. At the same time, Seoone worked to create authority for Just Carpets through link building. The concept behind the link building strategy for the Netherlands and Germany revolved around qualitative links and expanding the number of referring websites. We chose a combination of relevant links from both platforms in the car industry as well as mass links from start pages and forums. In France, we moved forward with qualitative links from relevant blogs from high quality domains. Overall, increasing the number of quality links made the website more authoritative and more relevant on keywords related to car mats and trunk mats. This approach was carried out on a monthly basis and adjusted where necessary along the way.

THE RESULTS

The SEO activities in Germany have paid off, with a vast increase in top rankings across important keywords. We achieved nearly 30% more impressions in Germany through a broad range of top rankings. The increase in top rankings can also be accounted to the link-building strategy followed. By using mass links from start pages combined with blog articles on high-quality domains, Seoone was able to boost the link profile of JustCarpets.nl. This also becomes evident when analyzing the increase of referring domains below.
