The Client

TVG.com, the official TV and Interactive Wagering partner of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) and a subsidiary of Gemstar-TV Guide International, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMST), is the most widely distributed horseracing network in the world. TVG viewers in certain areas can wager interactively on races via telephone, the Internet, TVG Mobile or Interactive Television by establishing a wagering account online at www.TVG.com or by telephone at 1-888-PLAY-TVG.

The Challenge

TVG approached SEOP to assist with increasing their low traffic numbers and online branding. They had no significant rankings for their top 20 keywords. They were concerned about their top competitor YouBet.com taking away more of their market share. Given their vertical, PPC advertising was prohibited, so a strong SEO campaign was critical to their success.

The Plan

SEO – Initial coding adjustments for deeper site indexing, site optimization, deep linking, and on page/off page content creation.

The Result

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

SEOP achieved first page rankings (Google) for 75% of TVG’s top 20 keywords.

This resulted in a 31% increase in yearly traffic over the last year of the SEO campaign.
