What We Did

Content Optimisations

We began by optimising category and product pages and added FAQs onto each page to increase keyword rankings. After almost a year, Jackson’s are now ranking for more keywords than ever, with a 110% increase in top three keywords.

EEAT Optimisations

We put a large focus on E-E-A-T when working on Jackson’s website in order to build trust and authority. We first reworked the About page to showcase their history and experience, before creating a Meet the Team page to highlight their expertise and authority in the industry.

PMax Campaign

Jackson’s were previously operating a catch-all campaign focusing on products. We segmented this by product category and restructured it to allow for more granular targeting and communication. We also pulled out consumer-tier products that could be sold to non-tradesmen to capitalise a little more on their saleability.

Product Feed Optimisation

We worked on improving their product feed to include additional ranking and targeting features including longer product titles, additional descriptions, better and more granular categories and types, more comprehensive attributes and Gtins. 

Implementing Non-Branded Keywords

We optimised Jackson’s campaign to target more product terms that aren’t brand-focused and built a search-based strategy to go after key product categories such as Oak & White Primed products, and higher value items like handrails.

Building an Active Relationship

Wildcat Digital worked to have an active relationship with Jackson Woodturners and the other agencies involved in developing their overall marketing.

We worked professionally alongside a web development agency and social media marketers to align our strategies. The strategies included a content and video plan which were to be published at similar times, while also working with a web development agency to improve the website’s front-facing issues.

In-person, quarterly meetings were held at Jackson Woodturners HQ with all agencies. This updated the client on the performance of the campaign, along with future tasks. We would also discuss new products and services with Jackson Woodturners and how we could utilise these for future KPIs.

PR

We conducted desk research and link audits to compare media coverage and the backlink profile of key competitors. We needed to create a strategy that would gain quality media placements with links to the Jackson Woodturner domain – focusing on quality over quantity. 

We found that there were opportunities to leverage articles from the advice centre, showcase in-house and partner staircase experts, strengthen the site’s expertise, feeding into EEAT signals to Google. We also created a calendar, using key moments such as Spring DIY season and Christmas home upgrades – sharing relevant content to piggyback on conversations already happening within the press. 

We wanted to reach both trade and consumer customers, including joiners, homebuilders, renovators and homeowners. Highlighting Jackson’s  “trade prices for all”. To do this, we used a combination of  people, expertise and trend-led stories. For example,

  • Interviews with Jackson Woodturners’ family members
  • Trend stories – showcasing popular products e.g. matt black stair parts, 2024 and spring DIY upgrades
  • Practical advice stories – staircase damage, home value and spindle measurement
