How Velotric Turbocharged SEO—From Unknown to Industry Leader in 6 Months

About Velotric

Velotric is a rising star in the electric bike industry, built by a team of ex-Lime and Didi engineers who have designed millions of electric two-wheelers. With a strong focus on performance, affordability, and cutting-edge battery technology, Velotric set out to capture the growing US and European e-bike markets.

But there was one big problem: nobody was finding them on Google.

Despite having top-tier products, Velotric lacked SEO visibility, wasn’t ranking for competitive industry keywords, and was getting overshadowed by established brands. To compete, they needed an aggressive SEO-first growth strategy—fast.

The Challenge

Velotric faced several SEO roadblocks that were limiting organic growth:

01

Minimal Brand Awareness in Search

Despite industry buzz, Velotric wasn’t ranking for high-intent e-bike keywords, losing traffic to competitors.

02

Weak Top 10 Keyword Presence

Key terms like electric bike, best commuter e-bike, and off-road e-bike weren’t appearing on Page 1 of Google.

03

Malicious Copycat Sites & Brand Attacks

Competitor sites and fraudulent domains were stealing traffic and misdirecting potential buyers.

04

Lack of Structured SEO Data

The website wasn’t optimized for rich search results, featured snippets, or structured data enhancements.

05

Limited Content & Backlinks

Without a solid content strategy, Velotric lacked authority, and other brands dominated industry discussions.
