This case study focuses on a pioneering online retailer in the tobacco and nicotine industry, specializing in the sale of nicotine pouches and snus. Catering to a growing market that prefers the convenience of online shopping, the client faced the challenge of establishing a strong digital presence in an industry traditionally dominated by brick-and-mortar stores. Despite having a product in high demand, their online visibility was significantly hindered by a saturated market and intense competition.

The primary challenge was not just establishing an online presence but also outshining competitors in a highly competitive digital landscape. The client needed to rank prominently on Google in various regions, facing stiff competition from established online retailers as well as new entrants in the market. The goal was to secure a dominant position on SERPs for critical industry-related keywords, crucial for driving organic traffic and increasing sales. This necessitated a robust and innovative SEO strategy to navigate through the complexities of online retail in the tobacco and nicotine sector.

Understanding the financial constraints, we carefully selected a range of keywords. While some highly competitive keywords were beyond the budget's reach, our focus was on identifying and targeting high-volume keywords with strong user intent. These were keywords that not only aligned with the client's offerings but also had the potential to drive significant organic traffic within the allocated budget and timeframe.

Our selection process was data-driven, taking into account search volumes, competition levels, and relevance to the client's niche products – nicotine pouches and snus. The goal was to balance the need for immediate traffic growth with the long-term objective of building domain authority and brand recognition in a highly competitive market.

With these considerations in mind, we targeted keywords that would not only attract the right audience but also convert them into loyal customers. Here are some examples from the campaign:

The campaign kicked off with a comprehensive audit of the existing website. We identified key areas for improvement, particularly focusing on the technical SEO aspects that could be optimized within the Magento 2.0 framework. This included enhancing site speed, improving mobile responsiveness, and ensuring a seamless user experience - all critical factors in boosting SEO performance.

In parallel, we embarked on a content creation journey. We developed a content calendar that strategically spaced out the publication of blog posts, product descriptions, and collection page content. This approach ensured a steady stream of fresh, SEO-optimized content, targeting both high-volume and niche keywords pertinent to the client’s products.

A significant portion of our campaign was dedicated to building a robust backlink profile. We employed a multi-pronged approach, securing organic, natural backlinks and focusing initially on branded anchors. As the campaign progressed, we pivoted our focus to direct backlinks towards our high-traffic content, leveraging the link equity to boost the authority of the internally linked collection and product pages.

Further, we implemented on-page SEO optimizations across the website. This included refining URL structures, meta titles, and descriptions, as well as integrating schema markup tailored for e-commerce. These enhancements were critical in making the site more attractive to search engines and improving click-through rates from SERPs.

As the technical and on-page SEO foundations were solidified, our team shifted focus to off-page strategies, particularly link building. We aimed to place the client's website in the spotlight by securing mentions and features on relevant and authoritative websites. This not only improved the site’s domain authority but also significantly raised its profile in the competitive online tobacco and nicotine market.

The image speaks for itself and keep in mind that there are a ton of other rank 1-5 keywords that we decided to put out to focus more on the ones with high traffic value and percentage.

We have also blurred out the specific keywords since we protect the integrity of our partner and our services.
