How We Helped Flexlume
Their Pain Points
The specific pain points they faced were:
- Technical issues: Slow site speed, broken internal and external links, the presence of permanent redirects, and 4xx pages deterred optimal user experiences.
- Onsite SEO issues: Missing h1 headers, duplicate h1 & titles, absence of alt attributes, non-descriptive anchors, and unoptimized meta descriptions and titles all contributed to poor SEO performance.
- Content-related challenges: Duplicate content and a lower word count were disincentives for user engagement.
- Foundational challenges: Indexing errors and sitemap errors undermined the discoverability of Flexlume's services.
The Solution
Teaming up with New Perspective, Flexlume embarked on a multifaceted problem-solving journey:
- The first step involved conducting a meticulous SEO audit to understand and untangle the complex web of issues.
- Fixes were implemented to improve site speed and resolve the technical issues hindering user experience.
- Onsite SEO problems were addressed via a comprehensive keyword research and page optimization initiative. Refinements included optimizing meta titles, descriptions, h1s, alt texts, etc.
- Content saw a significant improvement with a detailed content calendar for regular content publishing. Three to four SEO-optimized blog posts were added each month to enrich user engagement.
- Foundation was strengthened by addressing the indexing issues and sitemap irregularities.
