Strategic SEO for B2B Success: A Dive into SEO Sherpa’s Winning Campaign

We’re thrilled to share that SEO Sherpa, in collaboration with EMAPTA, has been awarded the “Best Use of Search – B2B (SEO)” at the prestigious 2024 APAC Search Awards. 

This award is a testament to our team’s dedication, creativity, and relentless pursuit of excellence in the competitive B2B SEO arena.

Our project, “Outsource and Conquer,” was designed to boost EMAPTA’s online visibility, significantly increasing organic traffic and lead generation through cutting-edge SEO strategies. 

By implementing comprehensive technical SEO enhancements, developing a detailed content strategy, and executing a vigorous link-building plan, we exceeded our ambitious goals and set new industry standards for success.

Ambitious SEO Goals

EMAPTA was clear about its digital ambitions: to enhance its online visibility with strategic SEO. 

Our targets were bold — a significant uptick in organic traffic, keyword rankings, and lead conversions within nine months. 

These goals were integral to EMAPTA’s larger business strategy, aiming to cement its status as a global outsourcing leader.

Our Award Winning Strategy

Our strategy was holistic, aimed at improving the website’s technical health, optimizing content for both users and search engines, and developing a strong backlink profile to navigate the unique challenges and opportunities in EMAPTA’s sector.

1. Technical SEO Overhaul: We began with a detailed technical SEO audit to address issues with site architecture, speed optimization, and international SEO considerations, laying a solid foundation for further optimization.
2. Content Strategy and User Experience: Recognizing the importance of relevant, engaging content, we devised a comprehensive content strategy aimed at EMAPTA’s target audiences. This included creating geo-targeted content and optimizing site navigation to enhance the user journey and conversion rates.
3. Innovative Link-Building Initiatives: Our link-building efforts focused on boosting EMAPTA’s domain authority through strategic partnerships, content promotion, and reclaiming unattributed brand mentions, significantly enhancing the site’s backlink profile and search visibility.

Results That Exceed Expectations

Our focus on SEO fundamentals—technical optimization, content strategy, and link building—drove a remarkable increase in keyword visibility, organic traffic, and leads. 

Comparing the campaign’s start to August 2023, we saw:
