Carbon365 (0 → 8K visits in 90 days)

  • Client: Carbon365 (E-commerce)

  • Goal: Rapid organic visibility + sales growth from search (Google + AI/LLM discovery like ChatGPT)

  • Timeframe: 90 days (first growth sprint)

  • Starting point: Newly launched website with near-zero traffic (0–25 monthly visitors) and zero e-commerce sales.

Carbon365 had a new website, no established search presence, and no clear search intent coverage. Pages lacked strong CTAs, topical depth, and conversion urgency. Content execution needed to scale fast without creating duplicate/overlap issues.

Situation

What I did (Strategy + Execution)

1) Research & Market Positioning

2) Content Engine

3) Technical SEO

  • Competitor analysis: mapped top-performing competitors (onsite + local Nigerian competitors) to understand what they rank for and why.

  • Keyword research + benchmarking: built a priority keyword universe by intent (transactional, commercial investigation, informational).

  • Content gap analysis: identified missing topic coverage and “high-intent” opportunities competitors were already winning.

  • Outcome: a clear roadmap of what to publish, what to build, and what to fix first.

  • Built a content cluster strategy (pillar pages + supporting blog posts) based on:

    • keyword difficulty vs opportunity

    • buyer intent

    • competitor gaps

  • Published at least 5 well-researched posts per week solving real user problems.

  • Reverse-engineered what worked for competitors (structure, intent match, formatting, internal linking, media use) and improved on it.

To prevent scaling from causing content overlap and index bloat, I built a simple but effective control system:

  • Developed a Landing Page + Blog Tracker to:

    • avoid duplicate topic targeting

    • ensure each page had a distinct primary intent

    • track URL targets, primary keyword, secondary keywords, content status, and internal links

  • Fixed key site issues as they surfaced (bugs + indexing/crawl efficiency blockers).
