LOOKFANTASTIC is Europe's number one retailer for beauty, skincare, and hair products. The following case study comes from seoClarity's collaboration with LOOKFANTASTIC's Senior SEO Manager, Abbi Van Der Westhuizen, in solving a CTR challenge with True Demand.
We identified several category lister pages across our Suncare section that appeared to be ranking well but were not generating expected volume of clicks from search.
Reviewing on-page optimisation, we found two pages were targeting high-volume generic keywords using data taken from Google Keyword Planner.
We determined that even with good visibility, the targeted optimisation of these pages was not fully aligned to the search queries users were making and therefore was not getting the expected CTR from search results.
The two pages we identified in our Suncare section were our SPF for Face and Body SPF pages.
We had to determine which page is best placed to target each term.
Using Google Search Console integration within seoClarity, we were able to see the keywords users were searching for and which page was being returned for them.
We found that users searching “Sun Cream” were served the page containing Body SPF products, while users searching “Sunscreen” were served the page containing SPF for Face products.
We then amended each of the Page Titles to bring targeting more in-line with actual user searches using True Demand insights in seoClarity's Topic Explorer.
The page title on our Body SPF page was amended from “Sun Cream & Sun Protection & Sunscreen” to “Sun Cream | Sun Protection”
The page title on our SPF for Face page was amended from “SPF for Face | Face Sunscreen” to “SPF Sunscreen | SPF for Face”
