Context

In the spring of 2022, the ATTITUDE transactional site team wants to simplify the management of its online store. The company will move from three sites (sub-domains) serving the United States, English Canada and Quebec, to a single, headless CMS.

Turko is approached to manage the SEO aspect of the project. ATTITUDE would like to give lists of “SEO requirements” to the developers responsible for the new site, and to have real-time expert advice on the evolution of SEO after the migration.

“Turko’s support has equipped our in-house teams and supervised the work of the developers to ensure perfect indexing of the pages and good referencing of the site. The work is well organized, the advice is top-notch, and there’s great communication that develops over time!”Guillaume Bérubé – Director of ecommerce and digital marketing, ATTITUDE

Turko was therefore going to design an SEO migration plan to avoid any potential loss of organic traffic linked to the change of platform, and take advantage of this to integrate best practices into the new site.
