Outperforming Venture-Backed Competitors in Search

Read my approach to helping OnStrategy out-ranked the venture

capital backed competition in organic search ranking.

SITUATION

How do you play with the big-boys who have nearly unlimited marketing budgets? You get strategic in the way you go after users to create a long-term presence in a search market money simply can’t buy.

a coMpetitive market

Increasing competitive markets meant more organizations were fighting for the same amount of stagnant search market.

limited advertising budget

Fighting for space against venture-backed competition meant OnStrategy couldn’t buy their way out of the competitors in search.

A STRONG BRAND

A well-positioned organization and troves of value-added content made OnStrategy poised to perform well in organic search marketing.

APPROACH

Research

All great SEO strategy starts with understanding what the market is searching for and how you can create content to reach those search needs.

Site Structure

Google loves well-structured, optimized sites. Everything is tagged, optimized, and ready to be indexed and crawled by search engine bots.

Content

OnStrategy already had a well-executed content marketing strategy in place - but now search engine research and consumer behavior help drive what is produced to improve organic ranking.

REPORTING

We set up a reporting system to give OnStrategy leading indicators on how search engine ranking and performance impact the bottom line.
