About the Project

The clinic operates in a highly competitive niche of aesthetic cosmetology. At the start, the site had its commercial pages in place and a baseline level of search visibility, but it lagged behind competitors in the number of topical backlinks and brand mentions.

The Objective:

  • increase the share of queries ranking in the top 10;
  • drive qualified non-branded traffic;
  • strengthen the service pages;
  • build a natural-looking backlink profile;
  • grow the number of leads from organic search.

What We Found

An audit of the backlink profile and the existing site structure revealed several critical issues:

  • too few topical referring domains — the profile was thin for the niche;
  • the bulk of backlinks pointed only to the homepage;
  • almost no mentions on medical and regional websites;
  • procedure pages were not receiving enough link equity;
  • not enough expert content to support outbound publications.

Six directions, each addressing a specific task in strengthening the backlink profile.
