Novar (formerly Solarfields)

Collaboration between branding, engineering and SEO

Solarfields is a young company with ambition: to supply 1 million households with renewable electricity. By 2030. To this end, they are realising solar parks on land, roofs and water. To boost such an ambition, they naturally want to be well found on 'solar farm'. But it doesn't stop there. The experience on the website should also reflect Solarfields's optimism and expertise. And so Solarfields brings 3 parties together to work on branding, technology and search engine optimisation.

Keyword analysis

We start with a search analysis and discuss with Esther and David of Solarfields which search terms are important to them. Of course, we select all search terms related to solar parks, but also, for example, 'sde subsidy', an important step prior to the realisation of solar parks and solar roofs.

Small search volumes

We often focus on search terms that have quite a bit of volume. For Solarfields, this is different. The target group is very specific and a complete project takes a lot of time. As a result, some terms are rarely searched for. But that one searcher a month is very specifically looking for a solution that Solarfields can offer. And that is why it pays to also pay attention to the search terms with low search volume.

Completely new structure

Based on the search terms, we created a completely new url structure covering all onderwerpen. The most important search terms have been elaborated on cornerstone pages and on the subpages we go deeper into onderwerpen. Solarfields projects are also given a logical onder breakdown. To achieve all this, we work closely with both the web builder and the branding agency.

Cornerstone page Solarfields

Collaboration WordPress web builder

Together, we achieve the best result. WordPress web builder Nordique plunges into the technology of the website, making sure there are no obstacles for the Googlebot (and other bots) to crawl the site properly. They also make sure we can create pages in the new url structure. And if we discover another issue, we can pick it up via a shared Trello board.

Collaboration with client and branding agency

Based on their expertise, Solarfields provides the content of the pages. Dizain then carries out an editing exercise and gives the texts a tone of voice that suits Solarfields. Finally, we at Onder do another check on SEO. We keep track of all this in a giant, overarching sheet so that everyone knows from each other how far we are. Onder meanwhile, Dizain has commissioned a complete new line of images. When just before going live the new images are posted, everything comes together and the result is fantastic.

Result

Pretty soon after the revamped website went live, we are already seeing great results:

  • 19% more organic sessions
  • 30% more impressions in Google
  • 14 new top 10 positions
  • 4 new top 3 positions, whereonder main keyword is 'solar farm'

Wondering who the people behind this project are? We collaborated with:

  • Client: Solarfields (now onder's name Novar) Esther (Communications Specialist), David (Marketing Strategist)
  • Brand experience: Dizain Paulien (Project manager), Maurice (Content marketer)
  • WordPress technology: Nordique Sharona (Project manager)

Renzo van Dongen

Digital content manager Peugeot

Whether it's about content or technical adjustments, it doesn't matter. Martijn briefs this in a very clear way so that it can be implemented locally or by our head office in France. [...] Since the start of our collaboration, we have achieved great results. Keep it up!

Marien van Stegeren

Eigenaar Kitcentrum

When your online onder venture grows, expectations often grow too, in every area. To a large extent, we were in control of SEO and its interpretation ourselves. We found out that our own "general view" was no longer sufficient, so we engaged Bureau Onder. Surprising and clear. We have built up a fine collaboration, partly because Martijn also regularly visits our office with Eline or Mariska (depending on the case), which is very valuable to us!

Marten Stellingwerf

Webmaster

Martijn and Mariska make the SEO story understandable for the layman and are happy to think along with us. It is nice that there is a personal contact moment every month with an extensive report and the opportunity to talk everything through. After just a few months, Onder has already managed to achieve number 1 positions on Google with some of our webshop pages. We are very satisfied with Onder.

Mark Prummel

SEO Specialist Stella Fietsen

For several years, Onder has been a valued partner of Stella. Martijn is my sparring partner for complex SEO issues and the extra pair of critical eyes that keeps us on our toes. Together, we have achieved nice growth in online visibility, visitor numbers and leads. Onder onder stands out for its short lines of communication and professionalism. They speak our language: don't nag, get down to business. That is what we love!
