Redesigned Website Generates More Traffic and Qualified Leads for Distributor of Dehydration Equipment

Air & Vacuum Process (AVP) is a distributor of natural gas and compressed air dehydrators and accessories. As an industrial distributor, they partner with OEMs, System Integrators, End Users, Engineering Consultants, and Maintenance Professionals from a variety of industries. They are headquartered in Tomball, a suburb of Houston, Texas, and have shipped equipment all over the world.

Problem: Their old site had steadily lost search engine rankings over time. As a result, the client was receiving fewer qualified inquiries and sales had decreased. The old site design was part DiY and part by another company and the content was very product-centric with AVP being completely dependent on their principal manufacturers to provide them with new content.

Solution: We reviewed AVP’s Google Analytics over the past 12 months prior to our engagement and identified trends and weaknesses. Based on that, we developed a strategy for a complete website redesign.

Keyword research was done by us and a list of primary, secondary and long-tail keywords were identified. To this, industry terminology used by customers was added.

We created new content that was more customer-centric to help visitors make a more informed buy decision and created valuable content as giveaways for lead generation.

Live Chat was implemented to provide more interaction with site visitors and has proven to be a very effective driver of sales qualified leads and RFQs.
