The company will handle everything from start to finish, providing a level of service unmatched in the car donation business.

The Challenge

The Client came to SEOP with only one thing to accomplish: “I need to be on page one on search engines for organic search, because the competition is so fierce.” The Client did not have strong web presence as compared to their competitors. They ranked at page 3 to 4 pages or worse for many targeted keywords. The Client wanted to focus on geo targeting for important keywords.

The Plan

Perform a thorough website analysis and recommended key changes to enhance SEO friendliness, including optimized onsite content, URL analysis, meta titles, meta tags, anchor link analysis, code cleanup and optimization, redirects, sitemaps, integrated 404 error pages, a 301 redirect and more

Produce optimized onsite content to support the website and blog

The Result

Hike Bike Kayak Sports, Inc.

The Client

Established in 2000, Hike Bike Kayak Sports, Inc. is the first and largest multi-sport company in La Jolla offering Adventure and Eco tours throughout San Diego and has a website dedicated to individuals, tourists and families seeking fun beyond laying in the sun. They offer an impressive Sea Caves Tour, Whale Watching tours, kayaks for fishing, and more!

The Challenge

Like many, The Client was struggling during the economic downturn and came to SEOP to focus their marketing towards their main service, kayaking. With strong competition in a fairly small market, HBK needed to reduce spending and reliance on pay per click and implement a strategy that will provide increased page rankings for targeted keywords, boost traffic, drive conversions and ultimately increased revenue. HBK needed to be on the 1st page of major search results and stay ahead of the competition.

The Plan

The Client has a great reputation as the “go to” place for adventure tours and kayaking, but SEOP’s plan was to drive that reputation across the web by increasing their web presence, drive top rankings for targeted keywords, and deliver profitability through higher traffic gains and conversions by implementing these strategies:

Performed technical website analysis to recommend specific changes to be an SEO friendly website by improving onsite content, analyze URLs, website usability and conversion consultation, meta tags and titles, and some proprietary SEO “white hat” practices.

Implement an aggressive link building strategy that focuses on developing inbound links to reach ideal consumers, including a whole range of rich offsite content to increase inbound links, driving visibility and authority by Google. n Produce offsite content to inform Users and spiders about the site.

The Result

Through the development and utilization of the above strategy and additional items, the following goals were met:

144+ Keywords in 1st page of Google – these are broad keywords such as “fishing rentals” that attract millions of eyeballs every single month

Increase in Visibility and Traffic in spite of a very small marketing budget, optimized for ROI with limited resources- 144 words on the front page of Google add up to more than 100,000 unique searches per month. PPC cost for that same traffic would be in the tens of thousands of dollars.

Increased visibility in local and geo-targeted searches – most of The Clients’ business is local, and it was a priority to come up highly in search results for local residents looking for outings. Client enjoys front page listings for organic search AND Google local, attracting a lot of local business.

Aztec Containers

The Client

Established in 1969, Aztec Containers is Southern California’s leading rental and sales company, specializing in large high-quality 14-gauge steel stationary containers, portable containers, and temporary offices.

The Challenge

Aztec Container came to SEOP seeking higher rankings for their targeted keyword phrases. They wanted to increase their authority and visibility with search engines, and become recognized as the worldwide leader in the container industry. They wanted to see an increase in qualified traffic to their site, and thereby increase the number of page impressions. This was expected to lead to a higher percentage of conversions and therefore, greater profits. The site needed to be properly themed and optimized for shipping container related keywords, and content to support said keywords was also required.

The Plan

At the inception of the campaign, Aztec Container’s key indicator keyword phrases were at an average ranking of 12th, which is outside of Google’s front page results. Today, the average position of those same keywords is 5.5, indicating a substantial success with getting key phrases into key positions.

Currently, Azteccontainer.com has front page rankings on Google for over 50 keyword phrases. This represents over a half million searches a month for the targeted keyword phrases, where the website comes up in the top 10 results- the front page- of Google. Similar positioning through PPC click buys would cost The Client between $240 and $410 per day between $7200 and $12,300 a month.

In addition, Aztec Container enjoys front page rankings for very competitive keyword phrases for 32 keyword phrases in Yahoo! and 44 phrases in Bing.
