How Eigen Engineering Grew Organic Traffic by 156% and Impressions by 49%

About the Client

Eigen Engineering is an engineering services company with primary market focus in India and the United States. The website serves decision-makers and businesses searching for specialized engineering solutions. Despite offering quality services in a high-value niche, the site had limited organic visibility and was failing to capture the search demand available across its target markets.

The Challenge

When we onboarded Eigen Engineering in early 2025, the site faced a set of compounding SEO problems that were capping its organic growth:

The Strategy

We designed a multi-layered SEO strategy built around three core principles: relevance (match what users in India and the US are actively searching), authority (build trust signals that Google respects across multiple markets), and intent (attract traffic that translates to business enquiries).

Pillar 1: Technical SEO Audit & Fix

• Full crawl analysis, identified indexation gaps, redirect chains, orphan pages, and thin-content URLs
• Core Web Vitals optimization (LCP, CLS, FID) for both mobile and desktop across India and US user bases
• Structured data markup (Schema.org) for engineering services, organization, and FAQ pages
• Sitemap and robots.txt cleanup to ensure Google was crawling and indexing the right pages

Pillar 2: Keyword Strategy & Content Architecture

• Mapped 1,800+ organic keywords across India and US intent clusters: informational, navigational, and commercial
• Prioritized achievable high-volume keywords where a DA 33 site could realistically rank in the short-to-mid term
• Built a silo content architecture linking service pages, blog content, and case study pages
• Targeted long-tail engineering queries with strong buyer intent for commercial service pages

Pillar 3: On-Page Optimization

• Rewrote title tags, meta descriptions, and H1/H2 heading structures across all priority pages
• Added FAQ sections to target Google's featured snippet and People Also Ask placements
• Improved internal linking to distribute authority from high-performing content to key service pages
• Optimized image alt texts, page speed, and mobile UX across the full site

Pillar 4: Authority & Backlink Building

• Secured contextual backlinks from engineering, B2B, and industry-relevant publications (India & US)
• Cleaned spammy and toxic backlinks via disavow process to protect domain health
• Built citations and business listings for India and US local/regional search signals
• Grew DA from 33 to 35-36 through consistent link acquisition over 12+ months

Pillar 5: AI Search Visibility (GEO)

• Optimized key pages for Google AI Overview and Google AI Mode using Generative Engine Optimization principles
• Structured content using E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) to qualify for AI citations
• Achieved 42 AI mentions and 334 cited pages across ChatGPT, AI Overview, AI Mode, and Gemini

Execution Timeline

Results

Google Search Console Performance (Last 6 Months vs Previous 6 Months)

Note: CTR appears slightly lower in the current period because impressions scaled significantly faster than clicks — the site is now appearing in many more searches, including early-funnel and informational queries, which naturally have lower CTR. This is a healthy sign of broader topical authority.

GA4 Traffic Acquisition (Oct 2025 – Mar 2026 vs Apr – Sep 2025)

The 18.17% total session growth, driven by organic as the #1 channel, shows that SEO-led growth is compounding across the site, with organic search consistently contributing 58-65% of all sessions.

Keyword Ranking Improvement (Dec 2024 vs Apr 2026)

136% growth in Top 1-3 keywords (53 to 125) is the headline number — more than doubling the site's strongest ranking positions while consolidating mid-table keywords into the top tier.

Why It Worked

• Technical foundation first: fixing crawl errors and Core Web Vitals removed ranking blockers that were suppressing the entire site
• Multi-market keyword targeting: separate intent mapping for India and US audiences unlocked demand that a single generic strategy would have missed
• Content architecture: silo structure gave Google clear topical signals and pushed up rankings across the entire service cluster
• Sustained authority building: consistent link acquisition from India and US sources improved DA from 33 to 35-36, compounding over time
• AI search readiness: GEO-optimized content now appears in 334 cited pages across all major AI platforms, future-proofing traffic beyond traditional search
• Impression scaling: 2.39M impressions in 6 months means Eigen Engineering is now visible at the top of the funnel, building brand recall ahead of conversions
