Obstacle We Encountered

Canonical Issue

This case can occur when a URL is marked as canonical to another URL, but the canonicalized URL is also marked as canonical to another URL; thus, creating a canonical loop without a definitive version of the URL. This can distract search engines from determining which pages should be indexed and displayed in search results.

This canonical problem impacts several SEO aspects on the Faspay website, including the distribution of link value which reduces the effectiveness of SEO efforts, content duplication, inadequate user experience, and inefficient indexing.

Our Best SEOlution

Canonical Issue

Identifying and Determining Appropriate Canonical URLs

To solve this problem, cmlabs ensured that each page has one version of the URL considered canonical. We used tools like Google Search Console to help identify canonical issues.

Consistently Implementing Canonical Tags

cmlabs ensured that canonical tags were implemented consistently across the website, with each page pointing to only one canonical version of that page.

Fixing Canonical Chain

cmlabs changed a canonical page directly to another page to avoid creating a canonical chain, making it difficult for search engines to index the page.

Apart from the efforts above, we also carried out several other improvement activities, such as using 301 redirects if necessary, checking and updating the sitemap, and carrying out regular monitoring and evaluation to address canonical problems.

Organic Achievements

Website Traffic Growth

During our collaboration, the Faspay website experienced significant traffic growth of up to 25.6% in January 2024.

In addition, when this project first started, the website's performance was declining. From October to December 2023, the website experienced a decrease in sessions in November and December.

We then handled this problem starting in December 2023. The results of improvements to the Faspay website began to be seen in January 2024, where sessions had increased significantly again to 44K.

Business Achievements

Faspay Successfully Increases Online Visibility

As organic traffic, market share, brand position, and rank distribution increase, the online visibility of the Faspay website increases significantly, making Faspay one of the leading payment gateways in Indonesia.

SEO Data

Keyword Ranking

In 5 months, based on Google Search Console data, the average keyword ranking that Faspay obtained was in position 9.9 compared to the previous position which was at an average of 11.5. On the other hand, the keyword targeted in Sequence Stat is in position 19.62 for organic ranking.

Besides organic ranking, Sequence Stat also succeeded in recording absolute rank, which is the order of a website in search results regardless of all sources available in search engines such as ads, snippets, PAA, and others. In 5 months, Faspay occupied position 21.51 on average in search engines.

Brand Position

Based on data from Sequence Stat, in the initial period of collaboration with cmlabs Faspay was in 3rd position out of 4 direct competitors in the payment gateway sector. However, thanks to the efforts made by the cmlabs team for SEO strategy and target keywords, Faspay succeeded in occupying the first position for the brand position in March 2024.

Search Market Share

Based on data from Sequence Stat, Faspay succeeded in gaining a 2.08% market share from the targeted keywords. This market share is the highest compared to the top 4 direct competitors in the payment gateway industry.

Rank Distribution

In the same period, Faspay succeeded in placing 62% of keywords in rankings 1-10 (page 1 of Google) for the keywords targeted in that stage. This certainly made the visibility of the Faspay website better. 

Organic Traffic Growth

Faspay experienced organic traffic growth of up to 25.6% after we analyzed and fixed problems on the website, namely the canonical issue and redirection issue.

Organic Keyword Captured

During the collaboration with cmlabs, Faspay succeeded in obtaining 32,000++ keywords. These keywords were strongly obtained from SEO activities, such as regular content production every month and the process of optimizing old content adjusted to search intent and targeting keywords.

In some businesses, there are high activity of searching in search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. In fact, a company can stand strong with just a 3% market capture available in its niche through search engines. Hence, understanding how to gain organic traffic is essential and even becomes one of the most basic of organic marketing. Let’s say, you run a business in the niches below:

  • Travel & transportation

  • Financial inclusion & services
  • News or online publisher
  • Property
  • Automotive
  • else.

To gain excellent organic traffic, companies operating in certain niches need a specific SEO approach. To do so, here are some steps you can take:

  • Optimize for local search with keywords targeting specific destinations, landmarks, and niche-related terms.
  • Create comprehensive articles to attract a target audience.

When your company has targeted thousands of keywords, the next step is building market dominance in particular business niches on search engines. To do so, working with cmlabs is a prudent move as we understand your company's position compared to direct or search competitors is vital. Additionally, we will help you to make your company get a percentage share based on the company's OKR.

For some SEO companies, enriching search results is just complementary, a standard practice without much thought or strategy. However, for us, this is an important investment and should be maximized. Based on our internal analysis, the SERP feature that you build up does not directly impact organic visits, but overall, it makes search engine algorithms understand how your website is trying to provide information with better serving options to users.

On-page issues are becoming a common problem, yet some company executives have the wrong priorities. We agree that technical matters are important, but other factors like keyword clustering and website planning must also be considered. This will be a big team collaboration so we will handle the technical issue together.

Getting on the leaderboard is important, but not all enterprises understand it. To climb on the leaderboard, you need an extensive analysis and evaluation of market volume. This approach will help you figure out how much percentage of the market we captured.

Even though ascending the leaderboard does not relate to organic market share, at least you have targeted tens of thousands of keywords with a larger optimization scale, such as the nation scale.

Increasing ranking distribution is an advanced optimization option and also one of the most crucial SEO objectives. This strategy requires a comprehensive strategy, avant-garde planning, and a precise design.
