The Company
Joanna Griffiths launched Knix with the goal of transforming an underwear market that had too much frill and not enough function. A trailblazer with the creation of Leakproof Underwear, she continues to focus on listening to what people want and bringing revolutionary solutions to life.
Overview
Knix wanted to increase generic organic sales and grow its company exponentially across all categories, including leakproof underwear, incontinence underwear, bras, and more. They relied heavily on paid search and social for the majority of their sales, and generic organic search was contributing a very nominal amount to their revenue targets.
Objectives
One.
Increase generic organic revenue and rely less on paid media
Two.
Increase brand awareness via top-of-funnel articles
Three
Increase domain authority & trustworthiness
Challenges
- The organic rankings across TOFU, MOFU, and BOFU keywords were dominated by numerous competitors & publishers with extremely high authority websites
- Naming conventions of products were not influenced by SEO
- Knix had an existing content marketing strategy and blog, but SEO did not play a role in content ideation or creation
- At times, what Knix stood for in terms of inclusivity and body positivity was in conflict with what search engines ‘wanted’ for particular keywords
