The client

About OPPO

OPPO is one of the world’s leading smartphone brands, selling in over 40 countries through more than 400,000 retail stores. It's known for its camera technology. Online, though, its SEO was split across separate sites in each market.

Each country site handled SEO differently and was missing out on organic traffic. OPPO needed one approach across all of them.

The challenge

What stood in the way

For all its brand strength, OPPO had several SEO problems:

  1. 01

    Scattered Website Structure

    Local agents ran separate websites around the world, so branding was inconsistent and SEO authority was split between them.

  2. 02

    SEO Optimization Gaps

    The global website was missing basic SEO, which held back its rankings and traffic.

  3. 03

    New Product Launch Visibility

    Flagship phones weren't ranking quickly enough for their most valuable keywords.

  4. 04

    E-commerce Expansion

    As OPPO sold more online, its store pages needed to rank and convert.

Our approach

How we did it

We brought OPPO's sites together and gave them one SEO approach across its key markets.

Global Website Unification & Technical SEO Overhaul

  • Merged the agent websites into a single global site on OPPO.com.
  • Fixed the site architecture and technical SEO so search engines could crawl and index it properly.
  • Added hreflang tags so each market sees its own language version.

New Product SEO Strategy for Rapid Ranking

  • Created an SEO plan for each device launch that got flagship products onto page one within weeks of release.
  • Added structured data so product pages qualified for rich results in Google.
  • Coordinated SEO with OPPO’s global PR, so pages ranked when products were announced.

E-commerce Optimization for Search Visibility & Conversions

  • Optimized OPPO’s online stores, improving product page rankings and conversion rates.
  • Improved internal linking and category pages so products are easier to find.
  • Optimized for mobile-first indexing, with fast load times for an audience that mostly browses on phones.

Competitive Benchmarking & Continuous SEO Refinement

  • Analysed competitors to find keywords OPPO was missing and room to grow.
  • Trained regional teams in SEO, in their own markets' context, so every site was optimized the same way.
  • Set up ongoing tracking and kept refining the work based on results.
