Large Long Island Moving Company Sees Massive Organic Growth

The Challenge

In June 2019 this moving company had 1,310 organic users visit their website, most of which was branded search. The company was looking to increase its non-branded search so that it can drive new users to the website and take advantage of the thousands of people who are searching for moving services each month into and out of New York City.

Solutions

The biggest opportunities that we saw to grow this company’s organic traffic were through:

  • Content creation
  • Technical fixes
  • Authority improvements

SEO Friendly Content

We wrote all of the static pages on the company’s website to give them the best chance of ranking for valuable keywords, such as “moving company nyc”, and also provided the user with a full description of what their services entailed. This work builds trust with the reader and helps to improve the likelihood of conversion.

Blog Posts

Once those pages were rewritten we focused our efforts on creating useful articles that would attract users doing top-of-the-funnel research. This included topics around:

  • Preparing for a move
  • Best places to live in certain areas
  • Ways to make your new home setup less stressful

These blogs continue to drive thousands of users each month and have naturally acquired backlinks, which helps to boost the authority of the website as a whole.

Backlinks

The final step in our process was to continually land high-authority backlinks to their most important pages so that we can get them to rank higher in search engines. We used multiple tactics, such as:

  • Unlinked brand mention
  • Industry association
  • Guest blogging outreach

These tactics allowed us to land backlinks from websites like the Chamber of Commerce, Best Company, The Herald, and more.
