Background & Challenges
- Intense competition from well-established brands.
- Technical SEO gaps affecting crawlability and indexability.
- Limited visibility for high-value keywords such as "secure VPN" and "fast VPN service."

The goal was to significantly increase organic traffic and keyword rankings within two years.
SEO Audit 🔍
Our audit uncovered several critical issues:

These findings formed the foundation for our tailored SEO strategy.
