The brief
As Agave Villas expanded, they recognized the necessity for strategic enhancements to their website to align more effectively with their evolving business objectives. These updates encompassed a website migration to a new domain and a transition to a new CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software platform.
Implementing such significant modifications to a website entails inherent risks, including potential declines in organic keyword rankings, diminished traffic and visibility, and various technical challenges that must be meticulously managed and mitigated.
The approach
When making significant changes to a website, staying organized is crucial. It’s important to use historical data for benchmarking and to implement a clear strategy to identify areas that need optimization and improvement.
1. Benchmarking
To start, we conducted a thorough benchmarking analysis to evaluate their current website performance. Using analytics tools, we carefully examined key metrics including organic traffic, conversion rates, bounce rates, and user engagement across various pages and devices. This process established a clear baseline understanding of the website’s strengths and weaknesses, guiding our subsequent strategic decisions.
2. Website Migration Plan
We developed a meticulous website migration plan to seamlessly transition to a new domain while minimizing disruptions and preserving SEO equity. The plan included detailed steps for content migration, URL mapping, and technical SEO adjustments to ensure continuity in organic search rankings and user experience.
3. Strategic Execution
Our SEO specialists and in-house development team worked closely with Agave Villas’ development team to execute the migration plan. Following the website migration, we monitored key performance indicators closely, observing improvements in organic traffic, conversion rates, and overall user engagement.
