SEO Campaign Delivers Short-Term Results, Built for Long-Term Success
OuterBox first looked to optimize the Cardinal Peak homepage, updating areas like the title tag, meta description, H1 headers, and opening paragraph copy. These optimizations provided a nice boost right out of the gate and helped set the foundation for future improvements. From there, the OuterBox team looked to optimize several key landing pages, seeking opportunities to include Cardinal Peak’s high-volume keywords.
These updates have led to a 167% increase in organic web traffic YoY as depicted in the graph below.

Over time, OuterBox looked to optimize and create new content across the Cardinal Peak website, with a particular focus on the company’s service and category pages. The team also implemented a robust internal linking strategy to help further boost and spread “link juice” throughout the entire site.
While SEO is a long-term play, OuterBox’s efforts have already paid major dividends for Cardinal Peak as they have seen their organic goal conversions increase by 169% YoY and their keyword rankings continue to climb (see chart below).
