Challenge

Where things stood

NordCart translated product pages but had fewer than 40 Romanian referring domains. Category pages for lighting, textiles, and storage sat between positions 25 and 40. Marketplace competitors dominated local content hubs.

Strategy

What we executed

We prioritized lifestyle and home-improvement publishers, used niche edits into aged buying guides, and ran guest articles around seasonal Romanian renovation cycles. Local citation cleanup supported brand SERP consistency for Bucharest warehouse searches.

“They rejected half of our wishlist because traffic did not check out. That honesty paid off. Category pages picked up 22 positions on average.”
