In this post, I would like to share my experience of bringing one of our clients to the first page first position on Google SERP for a high search volume keyword. The client, Pothys, is a big brand in the textile industry with a strong reputation in offline marketing.

 As a SEO Analyst, one of the challenges I faced was encountering a "Crawled - Currently not indexed" status on Google for our old blog post - https://scgroup.global/blog/safety-tip-green-cleaning-cleaner-future/ (Continuity of case 2 ) that I worked on. After some analysis and troubleshooting, I was able to fix the issue and get the post indexed. First , I analyzed the content, meta tags, internal, and external links for the blog post. I used the "Copyscape" tool (https://www.copyscape.com/) to check for any plagiarism issues with the content. I then edited and updated the meta tags to make sure they were properly optimized for the post.  The title and meta description for the post were updated to : Title: Safety Tip: Green Cleaning for a Cleaner Future | Cleaning tips Meta Description: When you choose green cleaning products and practices, your family is safer and healthier. Find out more about the advantages of greener cleaning. The future: green cleaning, clean ...
