Actions

As PR Smith has described in SOSTAC framework “Actions are the
details of tactics”.
TACTIC 1; SEO
•Inclusion of the keyword “Augmented Reality” to contents. This is a
keyword with a very high search volume with the analysis gotten from
ubbersuggest.
•Optimizing existing contents of the website using the same keyword.
•Technical SEO optimization of the website by working on the speed (load
time) of the website.
•Usage of meta title with the keyword “Augmented Reality”. Could be
‘best augmented reality company in the United Kingdom’ as the meta
description of the website. An example of this is illustrated in the
screenshot below; Onirix. A meta description was attached and this in
turn will improve the ranking of the website. Rover does not have
anything of such and should act on that.

Conclusions

Based on the results of the primary/secondary research
conducted through GT matrix, Semrush, Seobilty etc and the
aforementioned analysis, this project recommends the following:
1.Continue investment on technical SEO Optimization. However,
improve page quality, reduce Javascripts, use keywords such as
AR (Augmented Reality, Game of Thrones, Virtual relailty etc.),
improve page title with keywords in headings, add meta
description, meta tags, suitable image titles, and page mark-ups
for On-page Optimization (refer to Actions), making the website
mobile friendly to help increase Rovar’s reach to its target market
thus improving brand awareness and visibility. Refer to the table
below. (Poturak, 2022).

2.Content marketing has evolved to become one of the most
powerful tool to increase customer engagement in the last
decade (Mahmić-Muhić, N. and Klico, A. (2022). Hence Rovar
needs to invest in creating creative, factual, informative,
product-based content through engaging write-ups (more than
250 words on one page for SEO) and videos including testimonials
from clients and users (children who enjoyed playing games eg.)
to leverage credibility.
3.It’s crucial to “be where your customers are”
(Business.linkedin.com,2023). Hence the content should not just
be available on the Rovar website but also Rovar’s LinkenIn,
Twitter (platforms visited by most B2B Clients) (and Youtube
account for Social media Optimization).

4.Improve credibility on Google by adding reviews, rating, setting
up address on Googlemaps and a business profile on Google
mind-map. Also add the website on Google Console.
5.In short term, Rovar should focus on increasing brand
awareness among “ideal customers” in Belfast by acquiring B2B
clients (airports/hotels) through the launch of an online
marketing campaign including email marketing and virtual
exhibitions (PR Smith, 2019).
6.It’s also proposed to have a live Chatbot feature added to the
website along with pricing plans for “ideal customers” and an
option to schedule an online meeting to convert prospects into
buyers.

Conclusions

7.In the long run, Rovar should focus on fostering fruitful
partnerships with global clients like Google. Google has been
looking to use AR to improve user experience for Google maps.
Rovar can collaborate to add that feature to Google Maps. An AR
feature would be more effective in gauging the position of the
pedestrian by providing accurate directions more clearly for
better navigation. Since Google maps has a worldwide market,
this can be a major milestone for Rovar; allowing it to reach a
global market through this collaboration.
