On-Page SEO Challenges and Solutions

• • Challenge: Low Engagement with Text Content: The site originally relied heavily on text, which did not fully leverage the company’s strength in visual storytelling. Solution: Integrated more video content throughout the site, including client testimonials, project case studies, and explainer videos about the company’s services, significantly increasing user engagement and time on site.
  • Challenge: Poor Keyword Strategy: Initially, the site’s content was not effectively optimized for relevant search queries. Solution: Conducted comprehensive keyword research to identify high-value keywords related to video production services. These keywords were then strategically incorporated into content, tags, and video descriptions to improve search visibility.
  • Challenge: Ineffective Conversion Paths: The website’s conversion paths were unclear, leading to lower than desired conversion rates. Solution: Streamlined the user journey with clear call-to-action (CTA) buttons, simplified contact forms, and highlighted service benefits, improving the conversion rate significantly.
