How to stand out and be at the forefront of footwear searches in Google?
Insightland Team has been supporting Wojas SA in enhancing its position in e-commerce since April 2019.

(03) SEO activities
3 steps plan
1. Audit and findings analysis
The phase lasted about 3 weeks and allowed to determine the website’s standing and potential to take top positions in search results. The structure of the wojas.pl website was analysed, as well as were the sources of traffic and keywords that generate it.
2. Content and technical optimisation of the website
The tasks included preparation of a new content structure packed with appropriately selected key phrases, as well as revealing and removing problematic technical areas in the SEO context within the Wojas.pl website.
3. Link building campaign
In the following months, the team consistently worked on building a diverse and valuable link profile for the domain by acquiring positioning links from various sources.
“We focus on the online channel development, which already accounts for more than 30% of our retail sales. We needed a SEO agency that would understand our needs and the peculiarities of the very competitive market in which we operate. The first technical audit findings already provided us with many valuable guidelines. The next months convinced us that we had chosen the right partner. The e-commerce key indicators, i.e. conversion rates and transaction numbers, recorded significant increases. Our standing in the Polish e-market is getting stronger, so we have decided to extend our cooperation with Insightland by two new markets: Czech and Slovak.“
