Evincera started off with a detailed strategy to address the challenges.
Here’s a quick walkthrough of the SEO strategy implemented for the brand.

Problems & Challenges
Keyword Cannibalization
- A particular keyword was ranking for multiple pages of the brand’s website
- This made it difficult for the crawlers to determine the correct keywords for a particular page.
Irrelevant Results
- When the user searched with an intent-based keyword, irrelevant pages were shown many times instead of the targeted page.
- This led to higher bounce rates and more exit rate.
Low CTR due to Missing Meta Tags
- Webpages were not SEO optimized. A large number of webpages were missing with the Meta tags like Title & Meta Description. It resulted in low CTR for the website.
Evincera's Analysis and Solution for the Problem
Search Behaviour
- We studied the user search behavior for each of the given regions to provide intent-based keywords. Search behavior helped us to provide the best possible keyword match for a particular page.
Most Suitable Search
- Our in-depth analysis provided the most suitable searches for the service or product according to the region.
Accent/Regional Touch
- We took care of accents and dialects of the languages according to the region of the website.
Evincera’s Approach
SEO Keyword Research
- Query-based keywords are mapped for webpages to get a maximum draw from intent-based searches. Long-tail keywords are included for maximum reach on the search engine. This, in turn, reduced the bounce rate of the website.
- We provided unique primary and secondary keywords for every webpage.
- No repeated keywords are used to avoid keyword cannibalization.
Translation
- During the translation process, we have maintained the quality of the content with respect to accents, regional dialects, grammar, gendered words, etc.
- We took care of the fact that the meaning of the content for meta tags remains the same even after translation.
Techniques Used
