The Challenge
Gaining Visibility in a Competitive Market and Overcoming SEO Obstacles for Arabi Emirates
Arabi Emirates faced several significant challenges that hindered its ability to gain maximum visibility in a competitive and specialized market:
Content and Technical SEO Gaps: Many of the product pages were under-optimized for search engines. The website had a significant number of pages without optimized meta titles, meta descriptions, or relevant keywords. Technical SEO issues such as missing alt texts for images, broken links, and slow page load speeds further impacted rankings and user experience.
High Competition in the UAE Market: The industrial safety equipment sector in Dubai and the UAE is saturated with numerous local and international suppliers. This made it challenging for Arabi Emirates to stand out in search engine results pages (SERPs) for highly competitive keywords.
Low Organic Search Visibility: Despite being a well-established business in the industry, Arabi Emirates’ website was not ranking on the first page for its target keywords, especially for high-converting product searches. This lack of visibility meant that many potential customers could not find their website.
E-Commerce Platform Optimization Issues: The website’s e-commerce platform had several optimization issues, including slow page load times, poor mobile responsiveness, and a lack of effective product descriptions that matched user search intent.
Ineffective Local SEO Strategy: While the company was targeting a local market, its website lacked sufficient local SEO optimization. The absence of localized content and keyword targeting for Dubai and UAE-specific searches made it harder to compete with local businesses ranking higher.
