HOW LOUDER.ONLINE HELPED SWAP.COM GET
254% MORE ORGANIC TRAFFIC

Swap.com is the fastest growing online consignment store in the United States, with over 1,500,000 unique items available that span pre-owned baby, kids, maternity, women’s and men’s apparel and accessories.

Challenges

The online clothing market is fiercely competitive – so much so that even incredible companies like Swap.com can struggle to establish themselves and sustain their rankings over time.

 

Swap.com boasted an enviable conversion to sales rate once traffic hit the site – but the problem was getting traffic there in the first place.

 

After unsatisfying experiences with two previous agencies, Swap.com’s founder was on the hunt for a vendor who could be counted on to improve their organic rankings and keep them ranking well over time.

 

“We weren’t happy with previous agencies – but Louder.Online came highly recommended.”

Solutions

To compete against the other giants in the online clothing niche, Swap.com’s site would need to become a recognised industry authority.

 

To pinpoint the underlying problems plaguing the site’s rankings, we conducted a comprehensive site audit, which analysed:

  • Analytics and traffic data
  • Social metrics (Likes, shares, etc.)
  • External links
  • Internal links
  • Backlink profile
  • Technical issues (load speed, crawl rate, etc.)
  • Competitive landscape

THE RESULT

Over the first 12 months, ORGANIC TRAFFIC to Swap.com INCREASED by a startling 254 percent, from 36,000 in 2015 to MORE THAN 127,000 IN 2016.
