SEO Case Study Cuideo

Table of Contents

The project we will be discussing today is a success story in a relatively short time. In order to have a wider vision of its evolution we must place ourselves in April 2018, when cuideo.com entered iSocialWeb.

Cuideo.com is a project dedicated to the management of home care for the elderly in the main cities of Spain. It is a meeting platform both for people who need that service and professional caregivers who offer it.

A differentiating feature is that it offers different services, part-time, full-time or even at night, adapting to the needs of the end customer.

Start of On Page SEO work

In 7 months of work and after auditing the project we found many points where the project was weak and could be boosted in terms of SEO. We were able to triple the initial organic traffic data that the website had.

The key to a correct web migration

During the first month the migration of the website took place. Also, guidelines were given to carry out a correct migration that could not be strictly complied with, resulting in indexed pages that generated duplicate content on the site. So we carried out the following actions:

  • We make a url parity sheet between the old project and the new web.
  • We established the indexable urls and those that should not be indexed using labels and/or robots.txt files.
  • We extracted the urls with a representative traffic and since they also changed their url structure, once the pertinent redirections were made, we performed a fletch and render.

The solution to this problem was to give guidelines to search engines to proceed to the desindexation and to a correct 301 redirection strategy that was implemented in the htaccess.

The risks that in any web migration should be avoided

Apart from more technical issues and as a summary, the following situations should be avoided in any web migration process:

  • Destroy the traffic and visibility of the project so far.
  • Incorrectly configure the CMS.
  • Do not take into account the redesign according to the current traffic pattern of the web.
  • Do not highlight the advantages of changing the website to the user.

The basis of a deep audit

An onpage audit of the project was carried out during the first month to detect possible anomalies and implement improvements that would allow us to propose a logical and correct strategy. At the same time, the titles and descriptions were optimized in the internal pages as well as in the blog. The objective was to semantically increase the terms positioned.

A schematic summary of some of the actions carried out in this audit were:

  1. strong>Indexation Audit. Review of sitemaps, robots.txt, indexing analysis, traceability, response codes, web architecture, meta robots, mobile version…
  2. Revision of SEO basics. titles, meta descriptions, structured data, hierarchy of headings, canonicals, cannibalizations…
  3. strong>Content auditors. Analysis of the quality of the content (Thin and Similitary content),
  4. Improvement of WPO. Optimization of images and WPO were worked to improve the content available on the web and improve the UX of the site.
  5. Link audit and domain authority. Some of the most outstanding actions carried out to increase the domain authority to work were the following: Analyze the urls with the most outgoing links, inbound links, anchors used in both external and internal links, visibility index, keywords positioned and their distribution in rankings, analysis of competitor links profile, locate and perform monthly link creation strategy.

A bit of local SEO for the main cities

We linked Google My Business in each of the regions where Cuideo had a physical representation. We improved linkage with accounts and local impact, as both rating data and comments were printed on the web so they were always visible to users and search engines.

We optimize My Business profiles. The actions we carry out are the usual but a curiosity that you may find useful is that the destination url is always put in each of the pages of cities and not in the home as it is done in most websites.

Create links in local directories, city forums… Always taking care of both the anchoring that was used in those links, as well as the level of depth and authority of them. At the same time, we started a strategy to obtain positive reviews in My Business.

The actions that made the difference at SEO level

It is essential for the success of any project, make it this way, because once with a positive trend we can start to perform more specific actions, which help to give a plus and put the project in top positions for the keywords that you are interested in.
