How we improved search visibility through a comprehensive technical SEO strategy.
DenTek is a world leading dental accessories company and has a strong presence in the USA. Since its establishment, DenTek has grown rapidly by continuing to innovate providing high quality oral care products that are loved by customers globally. DenTek are the only dental accessories specialists with an extensive range across floss picks, interdental brushes, dental repair, tongue cleaning and mouth guards – and with a range especially designed for children.
DenTek initially contacted Click to help them develop a long term SEO strategy that was geared towards driving the brand awareness of DenTek within the UK market. We also helped design, develop and build a new mobile friendly website, that showcases the full catalogue of DenTek products that are available in the UK. One of the main aims was to help position DenTek as a thought leader and innovator in the sector, by helping create a new content hub on the DenTek website.

The US logo and product offering are very similar to the UK, meaning users wouldn’t have any indication that they were in the wrong place.

To counteract the US site receiving much of the UK traffic, we implemented hreflang coding onto some of the sites most popular pages; this code informs Google to display the UK site above the US site when people located in the UK search for DenTek’s pages & products.
As we progressed the technical requirements for the site we created detailed wireframes purpose built for mobile optimised viewing.
Once we’d concluded the research and the wireframes were agreed, the content was written and the full scale development began.
The strategy provided some excellent results for the brand, including:
