- On-Page SEO: We reviewed on-page factors, including meta titles, descriptions, and headers, to ensure they are optimized for relevant keywords. We also analyzed keyword usage throughout the website’s content and assessed the structure of each page for SEO-friendliness.
- Technical SEO: This involved checking the website’s load speed, mobile responsiveness, URL structure, and ensuring that it’s accessible to search engines for crawling and indexing. Technical SEO is a backbone of any website’s performance on search engines, and any issues found in this area are addressed right away.
- Content Audit: Since SEO depends heavily on quality content, we evaluated the website’s existing content, looking for opportunities to improve or expand upon it. For New Wave Divers Boracay, content was a key area for growth, especially in crafting detailed descriptions of dive courses, blog articles on local dive sites, and guides to marine life in Boracay.
- Local SEO Factors: Given the importance of local SEO for a business like New Wave Divers, we reviewed the consistency of their NAP (Name, Address, and Phone Number) across online listings, optimized their Google My Business profile, and identified additional directories for local listings.
3. Keyword Research: Finding the Right Terms to Drive Traffic
An essential part of our strategy involved keyword research to uncover the terms that potential customers use when searching for dive shops and scuba diving experiences in Boracay. Our goal was to identify a mix of primary keywords (broad terms with high search volume) and secondary keywords (more specific, long-tail phrases that often convert well). Here are some examples of the keywords we’re focusing on for New Wave Divers:
- Primary Keywords: “scuba diving Boracay,” “dive shop in Boracay,” and “Boracay diving tours.”
- Secondary Keywords: “Discover Scuba Diving Boracay,” “diving with turtles in Boracay,” “best dive sites in Boracay,” and “family-friendly diving experiences.”
These keywords not only bring more visitors to the site but are strategically chosen to attract New Wave Divers’ ideal audience, from first-time divers to seasoned scuba enthusiasts.
4. Content Strategy and Blog Development
With our keyword research complete, the next step is to create a content strategy that highlights New Wave Divers’ strengths and builds authority in their field. Since Boracay has an incredible array of dive sites and marine life, content topics are abundant and varied. Our approach includes:
- Dive Site Highlights: Posts on popular dive sites in Boracay, such as Crocodile Island, Laurel Island, and the Tribird Wreck, provide valuable information for divers and optimize for search terms that potential customers are likely to use.
- Marine Life Guides: Articles about marine life—such as turtles, coral gardens, and unique species found in Boracay’s waters—engage readers and establish New Wave Divers as a knowledgeable source on local underwater ecosystems.

Content creation is an ongoing process, and we will consistently produce blog posts, dive site descriptions, and guide pages to enhance New Wave Divers Boracay’s relevance for a variety of keywords while providing value to readers.
5. On-Page Optimization and Technical Improvements
In conjunction with creating content, we’re making necessary on-page and technical adjustments to ensure the site is easy for search engines to crawl and index. Key tasks include:
- Meta Tags and Headings: Optimizing meta tags and headers for our selected keywords to improve relevancy in search engine results pages (SERPs).
- Internal Linking Structure: We’re building an internal linking structure that improves website navigation and distributes “link juice” (SEO value from backlinks) effectively across the site.
- Image Optimization: Images are an important part of dive websites, and we are optimizing image file sizes, alt text, and descriptions to boost page load speed and rank for image searches.
- Schema Markup: To enhance local SEO and rich search results, we’re implementing schema markup, a code that helps search engines better understand the content on the page.
6. Off-Page SEO and Backlink Building
To strengthen New Wave Divers Boracay’s domain authority and overall online presence, we’re also implementing an off-page SEO strategy that includes:
- Backlink Building: We’re seeking high-quality, relevant backlinks from reputable websites, such as travel blogs, scuba forums, and tourism platforms, to enhance New Wave Divers’ authority in the diving and travel industry.
- Guest Posting and Collaboration: Through guest posts on other scuba-related sites, we’ll promote New Wave Divers Boracay and create backlinks to their website. This will include posts on popular topics like diving in Boracay, marine conservation, and guides to dive sites in the Philippines.
- Google My Business Optimization: Maintaining and optimizing the Google My Business listing ensures that New Wave Divers Boracay appears in local search results, map packs, and other prominent placements in SERPs.
