From Product Catalog to a Full Organic Sales Channel

Dvertsov is a product-driven website representing a specific market niche. The catalog includes product categories with specifications, descriptions, and pricing aimed at direct buyers.

The target audience consists of users who search for specific solutions through search engines. For this type of site, SEO becomes a direct customer acquisition channel — a user enters a query, finds a relevant page, and moves toward an action.

The role of search is to bridge the gap between a query and a specific product or service without intermediate steps.

Why the Existing Structure Limited Growth

Constraints identified during the audit that prevented the site from realizing its full organic traffic potential.

01
Search demand without a relevant URL

User queries lacked corresponding landing pages. Demand leaked to competitors.

Create targeted pages for uncovered query clusters
02
Overlapping intents on a single page

Multiple query groups with different user intentions pointed to the same URL, causing internal competition.

Separate intents and assign individual pages to each group
03
Incomplete coverage of the product range

Title, Description, and headings did not reflect the full range of products and services offered on the site.

Rewrite meta tags based on the semantic core
04
Limited internal linking

Categories and related pages were not interconnected, weakening link equity distribution and navigation.

Build a logical internal linking structure
05
Informational content disconnected from the catalog

Articles and helpful content did not lead to commercial pages, failing to support engagement and conversion.

Link informational pages with commercial sections

The Goal Was More Than Just More Traffic

The promotion was built around commercial demand. The objective was to increase the share of target queries in TOP, drive users to relevant landing pages, and create a clear path from search to inquiry or order.

  • Increase the share of target queries in TOP-10 from 19% to 60%+
  • Expand non-branded organic traffic by 200%+
  • Improve category visibility in Yandex & Google search results
  • Create 40+ new landing pages for uncovered keyword clusters
  • Connect informational and commercial content through internal linking
  • Grow organic inquiries from 77 to 150+ per month

We Researched the Demand First, Then Changed the Site

Every step of the strategy was backed by search engine data, not assumptions.

What Was Done

Work was divided into four areas — each solving a specific strategic task.

Semantics
  • Collected 4 120 raw search queries across the niche
  • Removed 1 273 irrelevant and duplicate phrases
  • Separated commercial and informational demand
  • Clustered 2 847 queries into 342 groups based on SERP data
  • Mapped clusters to existing pages, identified 47 gaps
Structure
  • Prepared a landing page map for 342 clusters
  • Identified 12 missing product categories
  • Separated 28 overlapping intent groups
  • Determined 9 pages for consolidation
  • Prioritized implementation across 4 quarterly sprints
Content
  • Rewrote Title, Description, and H1 for 128 pages
  • Defined content structure for 47 new commercial pages
  • Added FAQ sections with buyer questions to 36 pages
  • Formulated requirements for product descriptions
  • Developed a 6-month content plan for the blog
Technical SEO
  • Audited indexation — found 83 non-indexed pages
  • Implemented canonical tags on 94 pages
  • Optimized sitemap.xml (reduced from 1 200 to 486 URLs)
  • Configured robots.txt, resolved 24 blocked paths
  • Audited and resolved 31 duplicate content issues
  • Built internal linking across 175 pages

How the Strategy Works

Each cluster was assigned the most relevant page. This reduced internal URL competition and allowed the site's visibility to grow methodically rather than trying to rank everything on a single page.
