1. Learn Which Retailers Are Using The Best Seo Tactics
During The Festival Season
Festival season is in full swing, and this year is no exception. Festival goers require the proper
gear, including clothing, tents, and waterproofs for the suitable climate across the world.
We can identify which venues have made preparations for the festival season and which ones
still need work, thanks to data from PI Datametrics.
Seasonal SEO techniques
We've previously discussed seasonal SEO, which focuses on optimizing for critical times of the
year and ensuring your site is well-positioned to benefit from the subsequent increase in
interest and search traffic.
To prevent any cannibalization of their own search traffic, sites must optimize in advance and
refine their internal linking methods.
This entails building hubs or landing pages for the targeted search phrases and linking back to
them with the keywords in question.
2. Trends in Festival Search
The information provided by Google Trends is a helpful indicator of the products people are
most likely searching for and the peaks in interest.
Here are some significant trends, using "festival clothing" as an example:
● The busiest months for festival attire are May, June, July, and August.
● 2015 saw a surge in 'festival clothing' searches in August, totaling 33,100.
● 'Festival clothing' was looked up 40,500 times in May 2016.
● From May 2015 to May 2016, "festival clothing" sales increased by 82%.
First example: "festival clothing."
Ideal search performance should resemble this. The sites here consistently rank for the chosen
term, competing for search rankings not with their own content but with one another.

3. This is the landing page for the phrase, and ASOS is the top website for it. The fact that the store
set up this specific page and regularly linked to it is crucial.

On the other hand, improper planning results in this sort of variable performance.

Example 2: Essentials for festivals
The top websites for this term:
● Skiddle
● Tesco
● Her Packing ListGigwise
● Mountain Warehouse
● All Noise
● Go outdoors
The five months before the festival-related traffic peak are shown below, and they all rank
consistently during that time.

Mountain Warehouse, one of the top performers, has carefully prepared its content approach.
The page that Google displays when you search for "festival essentials" contains a list of
necessary goods linked to the appropriate product categories.

Millets, in contrast, has yet to put as much effort into optimizing the on-page language while
having a festival landing page.
7. Source - pi-datametrics.com
Internal linkage has been overlooked as well. Its blog has a ton of festival- and product-related
content, so there are plenty of opportunities to link regularly to the landing page above.
8. Source - pi-datametrics.com
There is a lot of text here and plenty of chances to connect to the landing page or even
pertinent product pages, but there are only a few links to a product (or product category)
offered for sale on the website.
Look at this Mountain Warehouse content page for comparison, which includes links to the
products it discusses.
It's extraordinary because Millets corrected some of the strategy but completely botched the
integration. We have some helpful festival-related content as well as a landing page.
Simply linking regularly from the content to the landing pages is all Millets needs to accomplish.
It's a genuine chance lost.
To sum up
The illustrations highlight the need for a cohesive SEO and content strategy for seasonal events,
especially when considering SEO packages. Knowing when the seasonal traffic surges are
expected to occur, the key terms to target, and then putting the proper plan into action well in
advance are all important.
This further emphasizes the significance of effective collaboration between the content and SEO
teams. On Millets, the teams responsible for creating the material need to be more
knowledgeable about SEO tactics, including SEO packages and affordable SEO services, to
ensure a successful strategy.
