About the Company
The client is a New York-based FinTech SaaS provider specializing in digital payment processing and financial management solutions. Their flagship product, a cloud-based platform, empowers businesses to streamline financial operations, manage transactions, and enable secure digital payments. With a team of 200 employees, the company was positioned to disrupt the FinTech industry but faced challenges in building a strong digital presence and standing out in a highly competitive market. Digiwigy’s SEO strategy helped them overcome these challenges, allowing the client to become a recognized player in the FinTech space.
The Challenges
Low SEO Presence in a Competitive Market
Despite having an innovative product in the FinTech space, the client had minimal visibility for core financial services keywords. Without a solid SEO foundation, they struggled to attract organic traffic, limiting their ability to compete with more established players.
Competitors Dominating Search Results
Several well-established competitors were already dominating the organic search landscape, making it difficult for the client to capture attention. These competitors had a strong presence in the same keyword segments the client needed to target, creating a significant challenge in breaking through.
Need for High-Impact Financial Content
The client lacked content optimized for finance-related search terms, making it difficult to rank for valuable keywords. Without this content, their organic growth was stifled, preventing them from effectively engaging their target audience and showcasing their unique product benefits.
