Challenges
Lack of Non-Branded Organic Visibility
While Zlatarna Dodić already had strong brand recognition on the Croatian market, their website’s organic visibility was limited almost exclusively to branded search terms. This meant they were missing out on a large share of potential customers searching for information related to engagement rings and jewelry in general, but were still deciding upon the best jewelry store for their needs.
Sustainable Content Production
At the start of our partnership, Zlatarna Dodić didn’t have a clear content strategy and production process in place. While they did have a blog section, the content wasn’t posted regularly, making the main challenge creating a content calendar and creating a process for posting weekly content, which would result in growth in organic traffic.
Balancing Branded and Non-Branded Traffic
While expanding non-branded organic reach was a key objective, it was equally important to preserve the integrity of Zlatarna Dodić’s established brand. The content strategy had to walk a fine line between attracting new audiences through educational and search-driven content while still reinforcing brand values and driving product interest.
Lack of Internal Content Architecture
The site lacked a clear content structure to support SEO best practices such as topic clustering and internal linking. Without this foundational framework, blog content existed in isolation, making it harder for search engines to interpret topical relevance and for potential customers to move to converting pages. This limited the ability to build authority around key themes and scale organic growth.
Highly Competitive Market
The jewelry industry is a highly competitive vertical in organic search, dominated by well-established brands with significant investments in content marketing. Competing for high-value keywords, especially those tied to engagement rings, required meticulous research and focus on long-term relevance and topical authority.
Solution
Comprehensive Content Strategy
A full content strategy was designed to attract new readers through search engines and engage them through well-written articles while guiding them to explore Zlatarna Dodić’s products. Topics were carefully selected through thorough competitive research and search intent to cover a wide spectrum of topics aimed at the target customer. This structure not only supported SEO growth through topical relevance and internal linking but also ensured that each piece of content had a clear purpose within the customer journey, whether to inform, inspire, or drive action.
Consistent Production and Iteration
We implemented a structured content production process anchored by a strategic content calendar aligned with seasonal trends, product priorities, and organic search demand. Each article was written using a standardized content structure brief to ensure consistency in quality, tone, and optimization. By working with our writers and Zlatarna Dodić’s marketing team, we introduced a systematic content review cycle, regularly publishing and updating existing posts to maintain or improve rankings.
Proactive Result Monitoring
Each piece of content was monitored after publication to assess search visibility, engagement, and ranking trends. By tracking keyword movement and user behavior regularly, we could spot the content that showed early traction and prioritize it for further optimization. Underperforming posts were flagged for review, allowing for quick adjustments to keep momentum strong across the blog.
Consistent Content Optimization
Published content was regularly revisited and refined based on real-time performance data and evolving search intent. Rather than relying on a one-and-done approach, each article was optimized over time to maintain relevance, improve visibility, and strengthen its role within the broader content ecosystem.
