Our Process

Process to Achieving 30%+ Growth with Technical SEO Audits

Comprehensive Site Crawl Analysis

We initiated a deep dive into Swagbucks' website, performing a thorough crawl to identify technical issues. This analysis revealed critical problems such as crawl errors, broken links, and pages not being indexed. We used these insights to prioritize fixes that would immediately impact search visibility, ensuring all valuable content was discoverable by search engines.

Site Speed and Mobile Optimization

Next, we focused on improving site speed and mobile usability, key factors in search rankings. We optimized server response times, compressed images, and implemented lazy loading for faster page loads. Additionally, we enhanced mobile experience by refining the responsive design, ensuring seamless navigation. These changes boosted user engagement and improved rankings, particularly in mobile search results.

Technical SEO Error Resolution

We systematically addressed all identified technical SEO errors, including fixing broken links, removing duplicate content, and properly configuring canonical tags. We also optimized site architecture to improve crawlability. This step ensured that search engines could efficiently index all critical pages, eliminating barriers that had previously hindered Swagbucks' visibility and performance.

Structured Data and Schema Markup Implementation

Finally, we implemented structured data and schema markup across Swagbucks’ site to enhance search engine understanding of the content. This led to improved rich snippets and featured results, making Swagbucks more prominent in search engine results pages (SERPs). By aligning content with search engine algorithms, we maximized visibility and click-through rates, driving significant organic growth and revenue.
