The challenge
In such a fiercely competitive market, delivering successful SEO improvements is an important part of the organization’s business strategy. They know that smarter, data-driven SEO changes can help them generate higher traffic and increase their market share.
The Stepstone Group has a testing-first culture across all organizational initiatives. The SEO team is committed to this approach. However, they wanted to improve the quality of their SEO experiments by gaining more valuable insights to make smarter SEO changes.
Without proven results and a clear understanding of the impact of their SEO changes, the SEO team had difficulty securing buy-in from other stakeholders to prioritize their work. This led them to form a partnership with SearchPilot.
The solution
Since partnering with SearchPilot, The Stepstone Group has increased the number of website domains they can test, as well
as the number of tests it run. This opens the door to larger, bolder SEO experiments.
They also collaborate closely with the SearchPilot professional services team to build and analyze data-driven SEO experiments. Together, the two teams also run quarterly ideation sessions to ensure there’s always a healthy backlog of SEO test ideas to hand.
Now, The Stepstone Group can confidently determine whether SEO tests will have a positive or negative impact on organic sessions. With accurate, actionable data at their fingertips, the SEO team has become a stronger part of the company-wide testing culture.
