Business Challenge

Figtree, a leading global software provider of claims management software solutions, had used Mambo, an open source content management system, to publish their website. The open source software was limited in its ability to ensure higher search engine listings and restricted the inclusion of various search engine identifiers. Figtree did not rank in the first 5 search engine results pages for Google and Yahoo!

SearchForecast Solution

SearchForecast’s search intelligence solution was licenced by Figtree to learn about how search enigne optimization works. By transferring knowledge in various training sessions, SearchForecast identified the lack of required search engine identifiers. The SearchForecast techncal team were then deployed to correct the issues of their open source content management system.
