The delivery and outcome

Successful migration and a big jump in organic visibility

Through a holistic, strategic approach, we mapped out and redirected 600+ pages – managing to maintain Mizuno’s rankings, backlinks and traffic post-migration, while also driving a significant increase in overall visibility. We then systematically worked through the site optimising over 130 category pages that drove significant ranking improvements for non branded search terms like ‘volleyball shoes’ that moved onto page 1.

  • Big jumps onto page 1 for non-branded search terms
  • Total impressions up over 50%
  • 28% increase in keywords in on page 1 of Google

More About Us

"We first engaged Calibre9 in 2020 when we were migrating our website. It was a daunting task as we had never previously implemented a clear SEO strategy. However, Calibre9 was proactive, professional, and knowledgeable, allowing us to focus on the other aspects knowing that the SEO work was being capably handled.”
