From 12,400 to 117,000 monthly visitors — a full-scale SEO transformation through strategic link building, technical SEO, and content authority.
Xinghaoya is a fast-growing e-commerce brand specialising in premium lifestyle and wellness products, serving customers across Southeast Asia and global markets. Founded in 2019, the company had strong product-market fit but was struggling to compete online against well-established competitors with decades of SEO history.
When they came to us, their website was technically sound but virtually invisible in organic search. Despite having high-quality products and a loyal customer base from paid channels, their SEO was in its infancy — and burning cash on ads with diminishing returns.
Our mission: build a scalable, sustainable organic channel that would reduce reliance on paid acquisition and establish Xinghaoya as an authoritative brand in their niche.
Xinghaoya faced a perfect storm of SEO obstacles that had kept them invisible despite having a quality product and real demand.
Ranking on page 4–10 for all primary commercial keywords, generating less than 12,400 monthly visitors despite 3 years in business.
Only 47 referring domains, mostly low-quality directories. DR 24 was far below competitors averaging DR 55–70 in their niche.
Critical issues: slow Core Web Vitals (LCP 5.8s), 340+ broken links, duplicate meta tags, and wasted crawl budget.
Only 24 indexed blog posts averaging 480 words. No topical authority, no internal linking strategy, heavy keyword cannibalization.
90% of traffic came from paid ads at a CAC of $84. Profitable but margin-squeezed, with no organic fallback if ad costs rose.
Top competitors had DR 60–75 and thousands of referring domains built over 8–15 years. Catching up seemed impossible by conventional methods.
Five phases designed to build compounding momentum — fixing foundations first, then accelerating authority at scale.
Every key SEO and business metric improved dramatically across the 12-month engagement.
