SEO, three simple letters that you may have heard in digital marketing circles, but hardly dug down deep to understand what they truly mean. A true SEO strategy is one that essentially uses qualitative content principles and technical improvements to improve online traffic and rankings. However, the true essence of the SEO strategy only shines through when you are able to drive more web traffic, even as your competition remains stiff!

ABOUT NIKITA CONTAINERS
Established in 1993, as a small manufacturing unit for aluminium tubes in Umbergaon, Nikita Containers have grown across geographies, manufacturing and packaging diverse goods and supplying to customers all over the globe. Their product range includes metal food containers, tin food containers, square and rectangular containers, round containers, cookie containers, confectionery containers, talcum powder containers and custom and decorative containers.
THE CHALLENGE
However, increased competition in the market had left a dent in their growth. Poor market visibility had stolen a share of their market pie, especially in Tier 1 cities. Given this scenario, could the 25-year old pioneer in manufacturing & supplying tin containers overtake competition in specific locations and become the market leader once again, with a cost effective digital marketing approach? We were about to find out.

IN A NUTSHELL,
Most digital marketing gurus would agree that a website should start seeing first results from SEO within a minimum period of 6 months. It’s true that the letters SEO are no magic. Do not expect to see instant gratification, look at it as a journey.
But once you have the right SEO strategy in place, you will start seeing the impacts of your SEO efforts within 6 to 12 months. You can also look at investing further in SEO if you are happy with what you see.
