Problems Identified

At the outset, the project faced several challenges that needed addressing for effective SEO:
Lack of Organic Presence:
The website had no significant organic traffic, and its keyword rankings were almost non-existent.
Technical Issues:
Slow load speeds, poor mobile optimization, and crawl errors were identified using Google Search Console.
Content Gaps:
Betting-related content needed localization and optimization to cater to the diverse target GEOs and languages.

Solutions Implemented

A comprehensive SEO strategy for betting was executed with a focus on both on-page and off-page optimization, alongside a robust backlink strategy:

On-Page SEO

Localized Keyword Research:

We conducted in-depth research for region-specific betting keywords in multiple languages. Tools like Ahrefs and Google Keyword Planner helped identify the most relevant terms for India, Brazil, and other target markets.

Content Optimization:

The website’s content was localized and optimized for each target language. We focused on keyword integration, enhancing meta tags, and improving internal linking to align with search intent.

Technical Fixes:

After a thorough audit, improvements were made to enhance page load speed and mobile-friendliness, particularly in regions with lower average internet speeds.

Off-Page SEO

Content Distribution:

We published high-quality articles and blog posts on reputable betting websites, forums, and news outlets in key regions. This helped build domain authority and trust.

Influencer Collaborations:

Local influencers in Brazil 🇧🇷 and India 🇮🇳 were engaged to promote the platform, which increased brand visibility and user trust.
  • Competitive Analysis: Using tools like Ahrefs and Majestic, we analyzed competitors’ backlinks. This helped us secure backlinks from high-authority, region-specific domains such as betting and sports websites.
  • High-Authority Backlinks: By partnering with high-traffic regional sites, such as local sports blogs and entertainment portals, we were able to boost domain authority and search rankings.
