Tandem Partnerships
The Brief
Tandem Partnerships (Tandem) is an agency that specializes in nationwide sponsorship sales, strategy, and experiential marketing, and fulfillment. With advancing technology, Tandem needed to develop a Search Engine Optimization (SEO) strategy to align with the goals of the business and the target audience. Tandem needed a plan that attracted new clients, positioned itself as a thought leader in the industry, and provided credibility to potential joint venture partners. With that, they understood that some web updates would be needed to implement any new strategy moving forward.
Our Approach
We recommended the development of a completely new SEO strategy. The new strategy was designed to:
- Create an updated website experience (for all users) that is easy-to-use and understand, by updating technical elements of the site—including navigational menu(s), design, code, and URL structure
- Improve the technical foundation (Technical SEO) of the website to improve how Google and other search engines see the site
- Help the audience understand who Tandem is, what they do, and how Tandem can help—encouraging users to take the next step and contact Tandem
- Increase page speed by running diagnostic reports and making improvements to reduce load time and keep the user on the site
- Help rank the most important pieces of the site in search based on keyword phrases and semantic search strategies
Additionally, the following “behind the scenes” features were built-in to the strategy:
- Google analytics performance reporting
- High-speed page loading / caching
- Redirects for any URL(s) that may have changed during the migration process
- SEO plugin setup & configuration
- Caching solutions
- Optimized web hosting services
