Pat Menzies, a division of the Brittain Wynyard Group, has been collaborating with Overdose. across SEO, Marketing, and Tech services for several years.

Challenges  
+ Solutions

Challenge 01

Addressing E-Commerce SEO Foundation Challenges

The absence of Technical SEO Foundations and content gaps within the site architecture hindered the ability to rank for specific terms.

‍

SOLUTION

Given the complexity of Adobe Commerce Magento sites, a comprehensive Technical Audit was conducted to pinpoint issues from a technical standpoint, with actionable insights shared between the Overdose. SEO and development team and the Pat Menzie team. Additionally, an Information Architecture and Content Gap Analysis was undertaken to ensure the presence of category pages on the website, strategically targeting relevant keywords.

Challenge 02

Bridging the Authority Gap in Google Search Results

Pat Menzies faced an authority gap in Organic Search, lagging behind competitors like Platypus and Sterling Sports.

SOLUTION

Implementing a 12-month link-building strategy, we collaborated with publishers and bloggers to acquire backlinks, bolstering Pat Menzies' authority and improving its search ranking position.

Challenge 03
