Challenge: Building SEO Into a New Website From Launch

The Kazakhstan Sotheby’s International Realty website was launched as a new project for the Kazakhstan market.

I was involved from the start, so the main task was not to fix an existing SEO problem, but to build the site with a strong search foundation from the beginning.

The initial priorities were:

  • build the website structure around relevant search demand;
  • ensure the main technical SEO requirements were implemented at launch;
  • prepare and optimize landing pages for key investment programs;
  • create a content plan for real estate and investment-related topics.

The website targeted Russian-speaking users across Kazakhstan.

My Role

I worked as an external SEO Consultant, responsible for:

  • monitoring the website’s technical SEO and optimization;
  • planning the site structure based on keyword research;
  • developing the content plan;
  • coordinating with the editor and copywriter;
  • monitoring organic performance and adjusting priorities.

The work combined SEO planning, technical oversight, and content coordination throughout the first year of the project.

SEO Approach

01

Built the SEO structure from the start

I collected the semantic core and designed the website structure around relevant search demand for the Kazakhstan market.

02

Optimized key landing pages

I created and optimized landing pages for investment programs in Europe, Turkey, and the UAE, with on-page SEO built into the page structure.

03

Developed content and supporting authority

I planned articles and guides about real estate and investment programs, coordinated their production, and used PR placements on Kazakhstan information websites as a supporting link-building channel.

Results

Within the first year, the website reached 5,000+ monthly organic clicks from Google Search.
