Our CONTENT & SEO strategy
Loom started by doing some qualitative audience research into independent theatre groups who might be looking for a London performance venue to hire. We discovered that many were struggling to get funding for their projects. Although there was some information online about theatre funding, it wasn’t in one place and rarely kept up to date. We saw this as a gap in the market and a chance to add real value.
We carried out extensive research around the questions people were asking about funding. This included keyword research around this specific search intent. When combined, this allowed us to structure an article that would add real value to those looking to finance their theatre productions and potentially need an affordable theatre space to hire.
The results
Due to the thoroughness of the research and the quality of the final article, search engines understood and appreciated the value of the content and the user search intent it served.
