Challenges

DFS, a young Indian security startup, faced a two-pronged challenge. First, the concept of monitored home security systems was unfamiliar to the Indian market. Second, established players like Godrej and CP Plus dominated the security space.

DFS needed a comprehensive digital marketing strategy to build brand awareness, generate organic website traffic, find premium customers and achieve top SEO rankings.

Strategy

The major challenge was the unfamiliarity of the Indian audience with the concept of ‘monitored home security system’. For which, we started with creating top-of-the-funnel blogs, utilising high-volume generic keywords and engaging people on social media platforms. Our strategy includes mindful usage of platforms like Quora to provide users with information (Quora, Blogging). Along with this we used blogs as a major platform where we talked about broad industry related keywords to slowly introduce people with ‘monitored alarm systems’. And strategically implementing On and Off- page SEO tactics.

All this with an action plan of increasing our organic visibility on pan India level, we achieved remarkable outcomes and witnessed extraordinary organic growth across various key metrics. We featured the brand in top newspapers like Hindustan Times, Entrepreneur Stories and more to build awareness and make a larger audience familiar with the concept.

Strategic usage of broad industry related keywords such as Security system, Home security system and anti theft security system along with city chapters helped us boost website traffic. The website saw significant growth in organic traffic through our strategy. Competing against giants like Godrej and CP plus dominating the security domain in India. However, the correct usage of keywords helped us rank 1st on major keywords specific to the home security domain. This gave the clients an edge over these giants.

SEO Domination:
