This article explores the integral part that data analysis plays in optimizing programmatic SEO. It dives deep into various types of essential data, including keyword research, competitor analysis, and user demographics, providing a comprehensive understanding of how these elements contribute to a successful programmatic SEO strategy.
Today, we’ll pull back the curtain on how data analysis is revolutionizing SEO as we know it. From savvy keyword research to laser-focused competitor analysis, data-driven insights serve as the blueprint for SEO success, especially in programmatic SEO.
As you read along, you’ll discover how you can unleash the power of data to transform your strategies and outperform your competition.
But before anything else, let’s define programmatic SEO.
In the rapidly evolving world of SEO, businesses are relentlessly searching for avenues to gain a competitive edge. Enter programmatic SEO, a cutting-edge approach that marries the sturdy pillars of traditional SEO with the efficiencies of automation and data science. But what makes this approach stand out in the crowded landscape?
Instead of the conventional methods that require manual and tedious effort to create every page, our programmatic SEO approach allows businesses to create thousands of unique, optimized web pages simultaneously.
This data-driven strategy is akin to casting a broad, sophisticated net into the digital seas, ensuring no potential search opportunity escapes your grasp.
What truly sets programmatic SEO apart is its potential for unparalleled scalability and efficiency. The aim? A significant boost in your search rankings and a surge in organic traffic to your website, driving actionable results much faster than conventional SEO methods.
Our programmatic SEO strategy at Area Ten relies heavily on data analysis to help us make decisions in our optimization strategies. Let’s dissect its key components.
Keyword research, in traditional SEO, often limits itself to head terms. These are the high-volume, competitive phrases that although have potential, are similar to chasing after the big fish with a single fishing rod. It’s both expensive and tough.
At Area Ten, comprehensive keyword research is one of the foundations for employing our Full Body SEO approach through our proprietary technology, CMAX™. Instead of solely focusing on those head terms, we capture and analyze even the long-tail keywords.
So, rather than a fishing rod that targets one large fish, think of our approach as casting a wide net.
The steps in keyword research involve analyzing search volumes, traffic, and relevance. But as we go along in the next sections, you’ll see how other methods of data analysis could also help pinpoint additional keywords that would work best for a business programmatic SEO strategy.
Identifying which keywords have potential isn’t enough. That’s why we go a step further and analyze the “why” behind these keywords.
Search intent is the silent force behind every typed phrase on a search bar. Analysis of this data aids in crafting content that is not only optimized for keywords but is also laser-focused on the user’s underlying need.
When your content matches with the search intent, it could result in higher rankings and better user engagement.
After all, programmatic SEO is not just about making thousands of content discoverable but ensuring the content is what the user wants.
By diving deep into search intent, we can also uncover additional keyword opportunities that may not be immediately obvious. This kind of insightful analysis opens up new avenues for content, making your programmatic SEO strategy more robust and far-reaching.
The benefit of doing this is twofold: (1) It helps you understand how you’re performing against global benchmarks in your industry, and (2) it allows you to identify what unique methods your competitors are using to gain market share.
What are they doing right? Where are they slipping? The answers to these questions can help you outshine them.
At Area Ten, we go beyond for our clients by uncovering hidden areas of untapped and cost-effective growth.
Let’s say your competitors are ranking for popular topics in your niche but have completely overlooked a vast ocean of longtail keywords we’ve uncovered in our research.
We’ll strategize how you can include these niche topics in your data systems for programmatic SEO, and publish thousands of content around it for bigger, faster results—and at a scale your competitors have never thought possible.
User behavior and demographics analysis are also crucial data for programmatic SEO. Understanding your audience’s age, gender, location, and interests lets you target them more effectively.
By developing content that resonates with your audience’s specific characteristics and behavior, you can better refine your content. That means a higher chance of ranking, converting, and driving profit.
The great thing is that you don’t have to sacrifice so much manpower or budget to capture and analyze these data. With programmatic SEO, you can utilize AI-powered tools and automation. Here are a few methods that can help:
Using these methods doesn’t mean we lose the human element. At Area Ten, each strategic move, from keyword targeting to content creation, is executed in consultation with you. We’ll make sure that the programmatic content and other strategies we deploy will go hand in hand with your existing marketing efforts.
When correctly deciphered and wielded, these data are turned into potent insights and action points. Here’s how it can affect your programmatic SEO performance:
Don’t just take our word for it. Here are real-life examples of businesses we’ve helped achieve growth through our programmatic SEO solutions.
Our client, a leading provider of optical care solutions in Australia, faced a unique issue. They’re widely known for their eyeglasses but wanted to increase website traffic for their contact lenses page.
We found out that they were using the same data that worked for their specs patrons as the basis for all their SEO strategies.
We performed comprehensive data analysis to identify their prospective contact lens customers, the head and longtail keywords they use, and the motivation behind these terms.
Then, our skilled writers worked closely with the client to create initial pieces of content that aligned with the brand’s identity and complied with legal requirements. Once the client approved this, we used it as training data to generate tens of thousands of additional, highly relevant pieces of content.
Our technology, CMAX, then performed continuous micro tests at the page level to refine and improve the contact lenses page’s performance. Data from these tests was then shared across our entire programmatic portfolio, improving performance across the board.
The end result? A 29.8% increase in organic traffic for the contact lenses page within nine weeks.
Our next client was an established Order Management Systems (OMS) provider in the United States.
Despite their success, they faced growing competition in capturing emerging e-commerce startups. To address this, we first conducted an in-depth competitor and keyword analysis to understand what these startups were specifically looking for.
We found out that these businesses leaned on long-tail terms like “best OMS for startups,” “affordable OMS,” and “simple OMS implementation.”
Armed with these insights, our writers engaged with the client to produce initial pieces of content. We also compiled these high-potential keywords and consulted with the client.
After client approval, we used this content and keyword database as training data to generate a wide array of additional pieces tailored to attract these startups.
The process didn’t end there. Our CMAX technology carried out ongoing micro tests on each page to progressively refine their performance. Within three months, our client achieved a 36.7% boost in organic traffic and a 24.6% increase in organic revenue.
No. When we say unique content, we mean it. Our proprietary system, CMAX, effectively crafts thousands of fully compliant, distinct, and contextually relevant content pages that secure top spots on prominent search engines like Google.
Moreover, we’ll make sure your content isn’t only unique but evolving. What you’ll see on the bottom of your page today could be different next month (but will still adhere to the base content you approved prior to implementation). It will adapt to the changes in search engine algorithms and insights on how it performs based on user experience.
Before diving into programmatic content creation, we’ll also evaluate the authority of your website.
For those who are just starting out with their programmatic content journey and still need to build
authority, we usually recommend the generation of less than 5,000 distinct pages.
Once we roll out the initial batch, we’ll monitor and understand how Google reacts, adjusting and expanding our approach accordingly.
Moreover, at Area Ten, we leverage software to help you gain authority without relying on conventional link-building techniques. Though we don’t engage in link building, we use holistic ways to enhance your website’s authority, like curating content designed to elevate your brand’s visibility and reach.
Unlike other programmatic SEO platforms that simply provide recommendations, CMAX is a dynamic, self-learning, and self-optimizing system that actually executes SEO strategies for you.
Think of it as your personal SEO automation engine that not only advises you but also rolls up its sleeves to get the work done. It ensures that you are always ahead in this constantly evolving landscape.
To get granular, CMAX can manage thousands of micro tests, adjusting its strategies in real-time to meet both algorithmic shifts and competitive changes at a page and our programmatic portfolio level, similar to how ants adjust their routes in finding a food source.
