What An Average Campaign Looks Like

Each client has different budgets and goals, which makes each search setting vastly different from the other. It is for this very reason that with Business Cherub, our clients can expect that each campaign and strategy is unique and will mostly focus on the needs of our client. Nevertheless, there is a universal model that most campaigns follow to a certain degree.

Phase One

Campaign research, strategy, planning and onsite optimisation are usually the primary focuses within the first few months.

Stage 1:  Client Consultation

Our initial step is consulting with our client to get an in depth understanding of their business – their products and/or services, target markets, future goals and visions. We also inquire about our client’s current branding, campaigns and strategies. In addition, our team will also perform a full review of the problems and issues that surrounds your website and the key marketing goals for the following years.

Stage 2: Competitor research

Search engine optimisation is a transparent science, as such, our team will take a look at any website and find out the factors that make them rank higher or lower than another website that’s targeting the same keywords in search engines such as Google and Bing. Our team will find out competitors precisely to your industry and identify who is currently occupying your target search settings. We will also find out what these competitors have done in order to get to where they are.

Stage 3: Consumer research

Using the data from the previous stages, we research how the target customers are searching for the client’s products and/or services in search engines.

Stage 4: Website audit

Our team at Business Cherub will perform a thorough website audit in order identify key areas that need improvement and all the issues that prevent your website from ranking.

Stage 5: Keyword research

By utilising the data gathered from the four initial stages including the traffic volume, search intent and relevancy to create a list of keywords that we will use for monitoring campaign progress as one of a number of campaign key performance indicators (KPIs).

Stage 6: Information architecture and user experience (UX) review

Business Cherub will take a thorough review of your website’s information structure, conversion rates and user experience. We will explore improvement possibilities using our in-house graphic/web design and website development skills and capabilities.

Stage 7: Onsite optimisation

Using the outputs from the previous stages, our team will be able to plan and implement onsite optimisation with includes;

  • Implementation of new website structure
  • Meta data optimisation
  • Internal anchor text optimisation
  • Alt tag optimisation and noScript optimisation (rarely done)
  • Canonical tags review, implementation and removal
  • txt fix
  • 301 redirects implementation
  • Correcting 404 errors
  • Sitemap creation and/or optimisation
  • Faulty front end code correction
  • Modification of other front end errors specified in Search Console including mobile compatibility issues or loading speed issues
  • Creating and uploading additional SEO-targeted code considered vital by the account manager

Stage 8: Removing Duplicate Copies or Content

Our team at Business Cherub will remove/delete duplicate copies or content from your website.

Stage 9: Creation of Transactional Content

Our skilled and experienced in-house copywriters will create or consult on the creation of new transitional content for your website.

Stage 10: External backlink analysis

For us to identify link spam, we will perform external backlink analysis. We will then remove or disavow all links that are considered spam. This is based on the Penguin 4.0 update, where Google now ignores some link spam and took away all the ranking factors that these previously offered without penalising it. We consider this during the SEO process.

Stage 11: Internal link analysis

Our team at Business Cherub will review your website’s internal linking structure in order to ensure that link juice is properly distributed to vital pages and limit those tapped off by low priority pages.

Stage 12: Google My Business listing

Business Cherub will assist you in creating your Google My Business profile and make sure it is properly optimised and updated.

Phase Two

After completing Phase 1, we will start focusing on increasing the website’s topic and domain authority. We achieve this by combining link building/online PR, creation of informative content, structure data implementation (i.e. schema) and social media management.

Link building

Proper link building is a vital part of SEO strategy. It is a niche form of online PR. A lot of SEO agencies get this process wrong, but this is something that our team at Business Cherub excels at.
