Drain Express also faced significant website SEO challenges. The site had numerous technical issues that slowed down its performance, affecting load speeds and overall user experience. Many of the existing pages were not fully optimized for SEO, meaning they weren’t effectively targeting competitive or relevant keywords. The website’s user interface was not optimized for smooth navigation, leading to a higher bounce rate and a less engaging user experience. Furthermore, the site lacked a clear keyword strategy, leaving much of its content underutilized in terms of SEO potential. These issues hampered the site's ability to rank higher on search engines and attract more organic traffic.
