About:
Nomi Designs makes minimalist, eco-friendly linen clothing that is sourced ethically and produced locally in Victoria, BC, Canada. The vision behind Nomi Designs is to create pieces that are flattering and fashionable for every body. Nomi Designs was founded on the principles of sustainability, slow fashion, and ethical production. Each item is made-to-order and made in Canada, ensuring fine quality and good practice.
When the founder, Nomi first reached out to me, she explained that her goal was to be on the first page of Google search for the keywords linen clothing, linen dresses and linen clothes canada. She also wanted to increase sales volume from the online store and expand her brand reach beyond Canada, into other countries such as the United States, Australia, South America, and Europe.
We’ve been working together since October 2021, and I’m so pleased with Nomi’s enthusiasm and openness to taking recommendations and feedback to make her site better and better. They are currently outranking their competitors in visibility and keyword rankings resulting in organic search being their highest traffic channel.
The Challenge:
When we started, Nomi Designs had done a good job at building brand awareness through direct, word of mouth and in-person sales. They had been in business for 4 years and wanted to expand their online DTC sales. The website had not been optimized for search (no title tags, meta descriptions and image alt text). They also had a lot of colour variations for the product offerings. I recommended to streamline the products by organizing the collections by styles and colour options thus making it easier for the customer to navigate through the site. Rather than scrolling through pages and pages of products in the shop page.
The Process:
- We performed a site audit to check for any technical errors with the website. We set up Google Analytics (UA and GA4), Google Search Console and Google Business Profile. We submitted the sitemap to Google and Bing for crawling and indexing. We checked the website structure as well as page crawl depth, internal links and broken links that needed fixing.
- We started with keyword research and competitive analysis. Checking the keywords their competitors were ranking for, then did keyword mapping to sort keywords into logical categories and determine which pages to place target keywords. We then optimized every webpage with title tags, meta descriptions and image alt tags. We also added additional on-page content, and a blog to capture important keywords.
- We optimized for Google My Business, ensuring name, address and phone number are consistent online. Next we submitted the site to over 48 local, national and niche directories, listings and citations to help with local SEO.
