The Beginning: A Strategic Mission Post-Merger
In 2023, Allianz Ayudhya embarked on a transformative journey following a significant merger with Aetna, a global health insurance provider. This strategic collaboration brought together the expertise of both organizations under the Allianz brand in Thailand, but it also posed a unique challenge: merging digital assets and reclaiming organic traffic lost during the transition.
During the merger, the combined website and digital platforms faced substantial hurdles, including disruptions in search engine visibility, keyword cannibalization, and a decline in organic traffic. Allianz Ayudhya entrusted us with a critical mission:
- Recover all lost organic traffic within 6 months.
- Build a stronger, unified online presence for the newly merged corporation.
- Turbocharge organic growth beyond the pre-merger baseline.
We are deeply honored to have played a pivotal role in helping Allianz Ayudhya navigate this critical period and achieve exceptional digital success.
Objectives: Building a Unified SEO Foundation
To meet Allianz Ayudhya’s goals, our strategy focused on the following:
- Recovering organic traffic lost during the merger by resolving technical issues and consolidating online assets.
- Rebuilding search engine visibility with advanced SEO techniques and targeted keyword strategies.
- Scaling organic growth to position Allianz Ayudhya as the top choice for health insurance in Thailand.
