Context

Dan Bolton is the single most successful tea publisher; his magazine, Tea Journey, is an industry classic. He prides himself on publishing authoritative content, benefiting the tea community. After over a decade of publishing, Tea Journey has extensive content; many articles generate traffic for the website.

One article has consistently brought in the most traffic to the Tea Journey website “Herbal Teas: Know the Risks So You Can Enjoy the Benefits”. Peter Keen, the author of the article, has produced many of Tea Journey’s top-performing content.

But things don't always work like they once did. The traffic the article contributed to Tea Journey gradually declined over time. This left "Herbal Teas: Know the Risks So You Can Enjoy the Benefits" vulnerable to losing prominence on the search engine results page.

Goal

Dan wanted to increase the traffic that “Herbal Teas: Know the Risks So You Can Enjoy the Benefits” receives.

Approach

Steeped Content focused on increasing the visibility of the article. This involved conducting on-page SEO including improving readability, improving the use of keywords, and creating custom graphics.
