+678% SEO traffic in 12 months for HRMCO.ma
How Digiseo transformed a website that was almost invisible on Google into a source of qualified traffic through a comprehensive SEO strategy.
Case Study :
The impact of a comprehensive SEO strategy on the online visibility of a training company in Morocco.
Background :
HRMCO is a professional training and certification company in Morocco, specializing in management, project management, finance, quality management, and human resources.
Despite its extensive training portfolio and strong industry expertise, the company’s website generated virtually no organic traffic and ranked for almost none of its strategic target keywords. As a result, it was failing to attract qualified prospects through Google and was missing significant opportunities for business growth.
The Challenge :
When we started the project, the website was facing several critical SEO issues:
- A poorly optimized site architecture
- Little to no internal linking
- No strategic keyword targeting
- Important pages that were difficult for search engines to index
- Very little SEO-optimized content
- No long-tail keyword strategy
Starting Metrics :
- 611 organic clicks over the first six months
- 19,889 impressions
- Average ranking position: 25
Almost no high-value business keywords ranking on the first page of Google
The Strategy :
Our SEO strategy was built around seven complementary workstreams designed to improve the site’s visibility, relevance, and authority.
1. SEO Site Architecture Redesign
- Complete restructuring of the website architecture
- Logical content hierarchy
- Improved internal linking structure
2. Keyword Research & Mapping
- In-depth search intent analysis
- Assignment of one primary keyword per page
- Elimination of keyword cannibalization
3. Content Optimization
- Rewriting of strategic pages
- Title tag optimization
- Meta description optimization
- Proper H1, H2, and H3 heading structure
- Semantic content optimization
4. Indexation Optimization
- Prioritization of certification pages
- Prioritization of training pages
- Improved crawl efficiency
- Resolution of indexing issues
5. SEO Glossary Development
We created more than 100 glossary pages targeting industry-specific definitions to capture long-tail search traffic and strengthen the website’s topical authority.
6. Link Building
- Acquisition of high-quality backlinks
- Submission to reputable Moroccan business directories
- Listings in specialized international directories
7. Semantic Content Clusters
We developed topic clusters around the company’s core training and certification programs, including:
- PMP
- QHSE
- Data Analyst
- Project Management
- Finance
- Management
At the same time, we carried out ongoing technical SEO monitoring to fix indexing errors, resolve 404 pages, improve crawlability, and enhance the website’s overall performance.
