Case Study

Overview

EdFolio, a study abroad consultancy, approached us to increase their visibility in Google search results and attract more relevant, high-intent visitors. With limited freedom to publish blog content, our team focused on strengthening their website’s SEO foundation. Within 6 months, we nearly doubled their clicks and impressions, improved their rankings for service-related keywords, and significantly boosted organic traffic quality.

Challenges

Limited Keyword Scope
Client only wanted to rank for competitive, service-specific keywords like “study visa consultant in Karachi” — avoiding easier informational content.
Content Restrictions
The number of blogs and content pieces allowed was strictly limited, reducing opportunities for broader keyword coverage and internal linking.
Technical SEO Issues
The site had several backend issues — including crawl errors, indexability problems, broken links, and slow loading speeds.
Weak Backlink Profile
There were very few quality backlinks, limiting the site's authority and ability to compete in search rankings.
Poor On-Page Optimization
Existing pages weren’t optimized for target keywords and lacked proper metadata, headers, and internal structure.
