Our client, a thriving online flower shop, was struggling to cultivate its digital growth. Despite offering a colorful array of beautiful floral arrangements, they were wilting on search engine result pages due to low visibility.

Challenges

The flower shop was not standing out on search engine results for essential florist-related keywords, which led to lower organic traffic and disappointing online sales. Additionally, their website’s user experience was not as vibrant as their bouquets, contributing to high bounce rates.

Objectives

The client aimed to increase their search engine rankings for specific florist-related keywords, stimulate organic traffic to their website, enhance the user experience on their site, and ultimately, boost their online sales volume.

Strategy

Egochi pruned a robust SEO strategy that involved:

• A complete website audit and required optimizations for improved user experience and SEO.
• Thorough keyword research to identify valuable florist-related search terms.
• Building authoritative backlinks to enhance the website’s credibility.
• A content marketing strategy focusing on the delightful world of flowers and floristry.

Execution

The process kicked off with an in-depth website audit that shed light on various SEO and user experience issues. The site underwent several enhancements, including improved site speed, better mobile compatibility, and a more intuitive user interface.

In tandem, our team executed exhaustive keyword research, identifying high-value search terms commonly used by individuals seeking floral arrangements and services. These keywords were then seamlessly integrated into the site’s content, metadata, and product descriptions.

To increase the site’s authority, we initiated a solid link-building campaign, earning high-quality backlinks from reputable gardening and lifestyle websites.

Lastly, we launched a content marketing strategy that struck a chord with the target audience. We developed engaging blog posts and guides on choosing the right flowers for different occasions, flower care tips, and insights into the world of floristry.

Results

The SEO campaign flourished within nine months, leading to a 275% increase in organic traffic and a 40% reduction in the bounce rate. The site began appearing on the first page of search results for several key florist-related search terms, driving a substantial 65% increase in online sales. Additionally, the average session duration improved by 47%, indicating enhanced user engagement.

Conclusion

This case study demonstrates how an effective SEO strategy can nurture an ecommerce business’s digital growth. By boosting the online florist’s visibility, user engagement, and sales, we’ve underscored the transformative power of SEO in ecommerce success.
