Case Study

Westfield Direct

Digital Minds has been a strategic partner with Westfield Direct since 2018, providing invaluable guidance on SEO during the platform’s initial build and contributing to its long-term SEO growth plans. The collaboration aimed at establishing a robust foundation for the ecommerce section (/shop) within the shared domain (westfield.com.au).

The Challenge

Westfield Direct faced the challenge of creating an effective organic search strategy to propel the growth of the newly established ecommerce section.

The goal was not only to lay a strong foundation but also to rapidly scale organic search contributions to meet ambitious targets in sessions, customer orders, and revenue over a 12-month period.

Solution

Our approach involved deep engagement with the business across a number of teams and key stakeholders, acting like a true extension of the internal team.

This collaborative effort focused on technical solutions, scaling opportunities and utilising data to craft content strategies and creative angles for sustainable return on investment.
