SEO strategy
Nationwide automotive retailer Robins and Day had a new website to launch following a recent rebrand which saw them become a Peugeot, DS, Citroen and Vauxhall dealer group. Phase one – a full-site migration. It was WMG’s job to ensure the move was successful, incorporating content from multiple legacy sites while preserving link equity. Phase two – grow Robins and Day’s online presence building site authority.
