Faceted navigation, properly indexed

A 24-month technical SEO engagement that captured demand hiding in unindexed facets: +315% organic clicks.

Outcome reflects organic visibility gains in the engagement’s own unit.

Context

Alchemy’s faceted navigation was underperforming — a common enterprise pattern where the facets that map to real search demand sit unindexed, and the opportunity never shows up in any report because the pages capturing it don’t exist in the index.

The work

The engagement restructured the faceted navigation for indexation: determining which facet combinations deserved to be crawlable landing surfaces, getting them properly indexed, and optimizing them to capture the demand they mapped to. Technical SEO at the depth enterprise inventories require, run embedded with the team over two years.

Result

Organic clicks grew 315% over the 24-month engagement — a major growth channel unlocked from infrastructure the site already had.

“Our faceted navigation was underperforming and leaving significant opportunity on the table. Aleksey got it properly indexed and optimized it to capture demand we didn’t know we were missing. His work unlocked a major growth channel — a 315% increase in organic visits over the last two years.”
