SME’s Journey from Invisible to Organic Leader in 10 Months

SME SEO Case Study

Client Overview

Our client, a leading powerhouse in the food and beverage processing industry located in Newark, excels in specialized services like Individual Quick Freezing (IQF), Chocolate Enrobing, and Powderizing. With renowned clients like Starbucks and Gerber, their operational excellence was unmatched, yet their digital presence was severely lacking, undermining their industry stature.

Challenge

The client’s digital visibility was virtually non-existent due to an outdated website. Furthermore, the complexity of their specialized offerings posed challenges in reaching and engaging the right online audience. Continuous Google algorithm updates added volatility, necessitating agile, adaptive SEO strategies. Competing against established industry giants demanded meticulous E-E-A-T alignment to meet high customer expectations.

  • Drive Quality Organic Traffic: Develop a powerful corporate blog and optimized service pages to attract and convert highly-qualified leads.
  • Dominate Search Rankings: Achieve high visibility and keyword dominance, particularly for IQF, Chocolate Enrobing, and Powderizing.
  • Strengthen E-E-A-T: Ensure content and site structure adhered strictly to Google’s Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness (E-E-A-T) guidelines.

  • In-depth Research: Conducted extensive competitor and audience analysis to identify strategic service areas.
