How we do SEO for travel websites
1. Delve into the data
We don't make any drastic decisions without carefully considering your objectives and data first. We look at booking data, popularity of destinations, seasonality, profitability and more to not only decide on what we should be targeting, but to help set more specific KPIs for us to achieve together.
2. Travel keyword research
Finding the right keywords to target requires extensive research and an understanding of what is realistically possible to achieve. We consider everything from the services you provide to the destinations you offer to recommend target keywords on a page by page basis.
3. Technical auditing
One of the first steps within a travel SEO strategy is to conduct a comprehensive technical SEO audit of the website. Everything from hreflang that ensures international targeting is appropriately set up to canonicalisation which reduces wasted crawl budget on page filters is considered.
4. Competitor auditing
Knowing the competitor landscape is incredibly important in the travel industry, particularly in niches that are dominated by big brands. Looking at competitor activity will help to form your ongoing strategy and understand where opportunities for dominance are.
5. Landing page optimisation
With SEO audits and keyword research in hand, we then move on to tackling your existing landing pages and creating any new landing pages that open up unexplored avenues for organic traffic to enter your site. Everything from keyword optimisation to reducing large images (a common problem with travel sites) is tackled.
6. Travel content marketing
There are endless opportunities with content marketing in the travel industry, as people are searching for answers about their favourite destinations, activities, accommodations and more. We create content campaigns with a purpose, to get your brand in front of your audience at the right time.
7. Link building
Links are still very much part of Google’s algorithm, and our travel industry content marketing campaigns go hand in hand with our link building campaigns as we build backlinks from genuine market leading publications and highly relevant travel publications to give your rankings a boost.
8. Travel SEO strategy
We never stop strategising, and are constantly analysing the data using multiple search engine optimisation tools to identify ranking, traffic and conversion opportunities. While we always have a strategy to follow, it has to be flexible in order to adapt to the ever changing search engine landscape.
