Since its founding in 2015, Hathi has dedicated itself to offering Middle Eastern women classic, eco-friendly clothing that effortlessly brings together elegance and utility. The brand carefully designs its prints to capture the spirit of the indigenous way of life, taking inspiration from the intricate structure of Indian workmanship. Based in Abu Dhabi, Hathi's designs are created by combining creativity and tradition in a way that ensures the highest quality requirements are met during the production process, which is carried out in India. With an emphasis on quality and simplicity, Hathi Store aims to rethink what it means to be a garment by providing an enthralling selection of hand-block-printed clothing that goes beyond style to make a genuine ethical statement.
Hathi Store proactively launched a strategic drive to strengthen its online presence and establish itself as a major player in the online apparel store industry, recognising the increasing trend of online shopping. Hathi Store enlisted the services of Techpullers to reinvent its marketing approach, with the main goals being to significantly boost website traffic, improve visibility in organic search results, and utilise the lead-generating capabilities of social media platforms. Working together, a customised digital solution that integrated Hathi Store's goals and unique brand identity was created. The expertise of Techpullers in digital marketing succeeded in boosting Hathi Store's growth and recognition within the industry. The redesigned strategy helped Hathi Store become more visible online and established it as a trustworthy supplier, which fueled its quick progress in the very competitive online fashion retail market.
Despite considerable efforts, the Hathi Store website struggled to obtain online visibility and was unable to rank for competitive keywords. Moreover, the website's content was noticeably devoid of SEO optimisation, consequently losing significant chances to target relevant keywords and enhance organic results. Important on-page optimisation elements including the appropriate positioning of heading tags and H1 tags were also overlooked. As a result, the content lacked relevant keywords, which further decreased the website's exposure. There were no backlinks constructed to improve the page and domain authority, indicating a deficiency in off-page optimisation activities. The website was not properly optimising its meta description, which resulted in missed opportunities to improve search engine visibility and click-through rates.
The following were the main goals that Hathi Store identified:
We carefully developed an ecommerce SEO strategy to satisfy Hathi Store's unique requirements to improve its online presence, standing, and recognition. Our group started working on a complete website transformation, carefully fine-tuning each element to make it compatible with search engine algorithms and user preferences. The strategy included:
