Challenges

Before working with Method + Metric, Boarderline was experiencing:

  • A platform with limited functionality and adaptability compared to other eCommerce platforms.
  • Low organic visibility, which resulted from a lack of a cohesive keyword strategy.
  • Confusing site content that didn’t support the user journey.
  • A short timeline, they needed results fast!

Method + Metric got to work focusing on these critical areas:

  • Website optimization– we implemented a new site architecture and keyword mapping to increase organic traffic.
  • We executed an eCommerce SEO strategy and optimized the site’s important product and collection pages.
  • Implementing a PPC strategy to immediately increase sales and to complement our ongoing SEO efforts.
