SEO Website Promotion in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) – SEO case study in UAE
In August 2021, a client contacted me asking to promote a website in Dubai. The client’s company provides legal assistance services for people who want to set up a business in the UAE. The website is in English.
Here is what we accomplished in 1 year of promotion:
Before
As you can see from the graph, the site had about 6500 visitors per month at the start.
After
As you can see from the graph, after a year of promotion the traffic increased to 29465 visitors per month. And we are talking about traffic from search, only from Google. That is, the attendance soared more than 4 fold.
In fact, in April the traffic was even higher, but after a Google update in May it dropped, this happened to many websites and SEO specialists working with Google remember this May very well 🙂
That is, looking at the chart, we can see that in 9 months of promotion in the UAE the search engine traffic was increased more than 6-fold
What we did:
We bought links on SAPE and FIVERR
We bought links on SAPE and FIVERR specifically for the UAE region. Since there are quite few sites aimed at the Emirates, we took links from the entire English-speaking segment of the Internet.
Writing articles
We looked at the most popular articles in the competitors’ blogs and wrote our own based on them. You can see the most popular competitors’ content using AHREFS in the “Top Pages” tab.
Working on the lending usability
All website pages, except the blog, were sales lendings with a feedback (order) form. Examining the competitors’ landings, we realized that some pages of our client’s website were not user friendly enough to reach the top of the high-frequency queries. We fixed that and the result wasn’t long in coming.
In my experience, websites in the UAE can be promoted faster and easier than in the USA and Europe. In that case were also lucky that the website already had traffic coming, so we didn’t have to promote it from scratch, as websites with traffic are promoted much faster. Monthly planned buying links, writing texts, checking technical optimization always gives positive results.
