Project

Helping to prepare a company to go public

LiveHire is an ASX-listed technology company focused on recruitment. Founded in 2011, it quickly grew – and in 2016 (prior to going public), the company knew it had to boost leads and generate as much revenue as possible. This is where Higher Ranking came in – our team swiftly reviewed, refreshed, and established SEO practices that helped build its internal capabilities.

Approach

Enter Higher Ranking

Spanning multiple cities and many moving parts, Higher Ranking was faced with a range of challenges. The project included three major spans of work.

Conduct a situation analysis

We listened to the client’s objectives and pain points before rushing into a new SEO strategy.

Getting on the right track

We discovered a need for both technical advice and marketing support – this became our responsibility.

Executing the SEO strategy

We rolled out a custom SEO program that included Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.

Challenge

Taking the lead with difficult conversations

The real value we provided for LiveHire extended beyond SEO strategy and performance. When we were brought in, we:

carefully analysed what was working and not working
raised difficult conversations with stakeholders
facilitated decision-making that would move the business forward
moved it from a .NET environment to a more flexible Content Management System (CMS)
set up systems and processes that led to the creation of a highly skilled internal SEO department that could thrive without Higher Ranking the future.
