11382.6% Increase in Organic Clicks without creating Backlinks

I took a website from 300 monthly clicks to 80K+ monthly clicks in less than 12 months without spending a penny on backlinks.

Here’s how I did this in only 4 steps 👇

1️⃣ I spent at least 77+ hours finding rankable keywords:

✔️ Competitor Research using Ahrefs:

👉 Compiled a relevant comprehensive list of 100+ relevant keywords that competitors are ranking for.
👉 Shortlisted keywords based on relevance, competition, and search volume

✔️ SERP Analysis:

👉 Eliminated keywords with high competition (DR 30+ websites in SERP).
👉 Assessed search intent and traffic potential for shortlisted keywords and eliminated keywords not fitting the criteria

✔️ Second Round of Keyword Research: 

👉 Initiated fresh keyword research for shortlisted keywords using Ahrefs.
👉 Identified related keywords essential for creating comprehensive content.

✔️Cluster Formation:

👉 Established keyword clusters using related keywords found in the last step.
👉 Finalized keywords for both pillar pages and associated cluster pages.

2️⃣ Created a Winning Blog Strategy:

I created a comprehensive blog strategy for writers that included:

👉 Minimum Word count (I never give a maximum word count)
👉Number of images
👉Internal and external linking opportunities
👉List of subheadings
👉Crucial statistics (To attract backlinks)
👉NLP usage
👉FAQs
👉References to understand the search intent


3️⃣ Published blogs while following the SEO basics: 

👉 I implemented how-to and FAQ schema wherever possible to target the featured snippets.
👉 Used a logical structure of H1 to H4 headings, used descriptive alt text for images, and added at least 5 original images per 1000-word blog.

✔️Published around 15 blogs per month. With 3 pillar pages and 5 blogs as child pages for each pillar page.

4️⃣ Worked on the data:

As blogs started ranking, new data started coming in. 

👉 A month after publication, I analyzed the pages with keywords ranked in the 4th to 15th position.
👉 I added new informative content to these pages by looking at the data and current SERP.

This was a continuous process that got me these results. 

Consistency and data-driven approach matters if you want to see exponential growth!
