Client Overview

Designer Bums is an Australian-owned ecommerce brand specialising in reusable cloth nappies and eco-parenting products. They have built a global customer base of over 150,000 families.

Their product range spans reusable nappies, accessories, swimwear, and cloth pads — all competing in a highly saturated ecommerce landscape dominated by global brands and aggressive marketplaces.

With more than 15 years in the market and 60+ industry awards, Designer Bums sits at the intersection of fashion, function, and environmental responsibility.

Problem / Challenge

Despite strong brand recognition, they were struggling with visibility and efficiency in competitive ecommerce categories.

Organic performance had begun to slip where it mattered most: high-intent product and category searches.

Key challenges included:

  • Revenue leakage in core product categories despite strong brand equity
  • Highly competitive search landscapes, especially for “money” keywords tied directly to purchases
  • Technical inefficiencies limiting crawlability, mobile performance, and site speed
  • Under-optimised category and landing pages that weren’t fully aligned with high-intent search behaviour

In ecommerce, small inefficiencies compound quickly. Designer Bums needed an SEO strategy that could recover lost ground fast — and turn rankings into revenue, not just traffic.

Solution

We implemented a tightly coordinated ecommerce SEO strategy focused on removing friction, capturing purchase intent, and strengthening authority across the site.

  1. Technical SEO foundation

We began by optimising the site’s backend to ensure search engines could properly crawl, index, and prioritise revenue-driving pages. This included:

  • Improving site speed and mobile usability
  • Resolving crawl errors and indexation issues
  • Cleaning up site structure to support category-level rankings

This ensured Designer Bums had a technically sound platform capable of scaling organic performance.

  1. Revenue-first on-page SEO

Next, we conducted in-depth keyword research to identify high-intent commercial queries tied directly to purchases. Priority product and category pages were then optimised to:

  • Match real buyer search behaviour
  • Improve relevance for competitive ecommerce terms
  • Strengthen on-page signals for conversion-focused traffic

The goal wasn’t more content — it was better alignment between search intent and product discovery.

  1. Authority through off-page SEO

To support rankings in competitive categories, we rolled out a targeted link-building strategy focused on quality over volume. High-authority backlinks were secured to reinforce topical relevance and domain trust — critical signals in ecommerce niches dominated by large players.

Each link supported priority revenue categories, helping lift rankings where sales impact would be immediate.

What We Achieved

The results were rapid — and commercially significant.

  1. Explosive revenue growth
  • Overall sales revenue increased from $75,193 to $300,904 on a month-on-month basis after URD’s campaign
  • A 300% uplift in total ecommerce revenue
  1. Category-level wins

SEO gains translated directly into category performance:

  • Category 1: $1,359 → $23,510 (+1,630%)
  • Category 2: $902 → $9,691 (+974%)
  • Category 3: $1,969 → $6,922 (+252%)

These weren’t vanity metrics — they were revenue-driving categories recovering lost visibility and outperforming previous benchmarks.

  1. Commercial impact

By fixing technical constraints, aligning pages to high-intent searches, and strengthening authority, Designer Bums regained control of competitive order categories — turning organic search back into a primary revenue channel.

The campaign proved that well-executed ecommerce SEO doesn’t need months to show impact. When strategy is aligned to intent and performance, growth can happen fast.
