We implemented a comprehensive SEO strategy to achieve these objectives, including technical, on-page, and off-page elements.

Breadcrumb Optimization:
Breadcrumbs were standardized to improve navigation and provide clear paths to previous pages. This improved user experience and allowed search engines to understand site structure.
URL Structure and Redirects:
