Case Study 1About the companyOur client is a global logisti cs company who off er a vast array of Internati onal courier services.

What problems were they experiencing before working with Artemis? Before working with Artemis their business model relied enti rely on leads generated by pay per click adverti sing with a spend of £6000 a month. Our client was becoming very frustrated because their return on investment and profi t margin was forever decreasing as the key phrases they were targeti ng became more and more competi ti ve and therefore expensive as their competi tors kept trying to outbid each other.

What happened when they met Artemis? The fi rst thing Artemis did was run a review of the site. Artemis identi fi ed that although their site was visually att racti ve many areas were technically wrong or missing from an SEO perspecti ve.

Artemis worked with the client to defi ne a clear 12 month strategy, with all the key steps and informati on explained in simple, no nonsense language. As a result, they were confi dent to move forward, and informed and able to make strong decisions on how they wanted the site to develop.

What acti on was taken and what benefi ts did it bring?Our client took the advice they had been provided with, and instructed Artemis to opti mise their site, as they could see the potenti al to make signifi cant extra profi t. By deep research into the applicati ons of their service, Artemis were able to understand the psychology behind the way their prospects were searching for their service, this then enabled Artemis to accurately target the revenue driving search terms.

Artemis then created over 300 internal pages targeti ng the countries with the highest profi t margins, and then conti nued to build on this foundati on by adding more new pages for the largest citi es by populous. The results Artemis have achieved have been nothing short of spectacular (see below). This enabled the client to completely stop their PPC campaign giving them a signifi cantly higher ROI.

Artemis also looked into how they would usually apply their services in order to adapt the method of search for prospecti ve clients.
