Wine Casino: Top-10 in 5 months
A new event-experience project reached Top-10 for its target Yandex query set during a 5-month SEO engagement; a later tracker snapshot shows 31 listed Yandex queries at positions 1-3.
real data
The task
Wine Casino was a new service entering a niche where established competitors already had several years of search history. The project needed a site, a usable demand map and visibility for local commercial searches around wine-casino events.
What I did
I built the site and semantic structure, created the core service content, and combined on-page work with relevant editorial mentions, outreach and targeted links. Search traffic is reported separately from the paid campaigns that also ran during the wider engagement.
The numbers
target Yandex queries: Top-10 · tracked Yandex queries at positions 1-3: 31 · monthly search visits: ~35→~250 · engagement: 5 mo. The target query set reached Top-10 in Yandex during the 5-month engagement. A later November 2020 tracker snapshot shows all 31 listed Yandex queries at positions 1-3, while the search-engine traffic report rises from roughly 35 monthly visits in November 2019 to about 250 in October 2020. The later snapshot demonstrates persistence; it is not presented as a 5-month traffic claim.
How this result is evidenced
- Period
- Engagement: November 2019 to April 2020. Persistence evidence extends through November 2020.
- Baseline
- Approximately 35 monthly search visits in November 2019; the project entered as a new service against established competitors.
- Scope
- Site build, semantic structure, service content, editorial outreach and targeted links.
- Source
- Yandex ranking tracker and Yandex Metrica search-engine segment from the supplied case report.
- Implementation
- Dima built and led the SEO work; paid campaigns ran separately and are excluded from the search segment.
- Attribution limits
- The five-month claim concerns the target ranking set. The later traffic and positions demonstrate persistence, not a five-month traffic delta.
The client's own words.
“The work made it possible not only to reach the Top 10 for the required target queries, but also to achieve a steady monthly flow of enquiries.”
