Project Overview

About The Spanish Group & the Campaign

The Spanish Group is a leading translation and localization company offering certified translation services in over 120 languages, including document translation, website localization, legal translation, immigration translation, and multilingual content services for businesses and individuals worldwide.

Despite a strong service offering, the website faced increasing competition from translation agencies and multilingual SEO providers targeting the same search terms over a 12-month campaign across the US, Canada, and Latin America.


The Challenge

Competing in a Crowded Multilingual Market

The translation industry is extremely competitive, with numerous agencies targeting the same high-intent keywords. A large service catalog created content structure and indexing challenges, while serving customers globally required strong multilingual SEO implementation.
