The Most Nutritious Yogurt Company - Liberte vs. Oikos

SEO is an important consideration for marketers because it is a huge asset to increasing traffic to company’s websites. SEO has a heavy connection to the technical aspects of any website through site speed, crawlability, and information architecture. When SEO is done right, the traffic on a company’s website can be rather high, such as load speed, if the website takes forever to load or ado anything on it, it can direct people away from the website.  In the yogurt industry, Liberte and Oikos by Dannon are popular yogurt brands for their taste and nutrition. Using keyword sentences throughout their sites like “Taste Nutrition and Healthy” and “Greek Yogurt”, in the quest of the Most Nutritious Yogurt, I will use the information from both Liberte and Oikos sites and will determine which of the two sites has a stringer SEO, when compared.
 

Liberte SEO


Example of Liberte Website
The Liberte website can be found here.

Liberte uses the keyword phrases Indulgent Yogurt, Greek Yogurt, Organic, Taste. Each of these key words are used a lot throughout the website, mostly on the products pages. The meta date description does not have any of the key words. 

The site upload speed is quite fast and the content on the website and overall layout, simple and modern. The website represents Liberte yogurt brand very well with its unique organic appeal. 

Liberte has been able to utilize the opt ins with an email opt in and links to their social media accounts.

They are mobile friendly and come ranked 11th in search results for Greek yogurt.

Oikos SEO


Example of Oikos Website
The Oikos website can be found here.

Oikos uses the keyword phrases Greek Yogurt, Nutrition, Taste. Each of these key words are not used as frequently on the Oikos website as the Liberte keywords are. However, unlike Liberte, the meta data description does have the keyword phrase Greek yogurt in the Oikos website.

The upload speed is quite fast but a little bit faster than Liberte's website. Oikos' content on the website is not as pleasing and modern as Liberte's, and is a bit dark and too bland to represent a modern, organic yogurt brand such as itself. 

Oikos is mobile friendly and does not have an email opt in but does have links to their social media accounts.

Summary

Liberte’s strengths are its use of words and clear, simple and easy to navigate website. Oikos’ strengths are its use of simplicity and easy to use website. The keyword sentences Taste Nutrition and Healthy” and “Greek Yogurt" are found quite easily on both sites but was used more on Liberte compared to Oikos.  Other observations are that are that some things from each of their HTML source codes were missing. Oikos was missing meta name: “keywords” and  Liberte didn’t use many words under their alt. When searching for content using the keywords:  Indulgent Yogurt, Greek Yogurt, Organic, Taste, Liberte ranked at 11 only for Greek yogurt and nothing else. When searching for content using the keywords:  Greek Yogurt, Nutrition, Taste, Oikos was ranked 17 only for Greek yogurt and nothing else.  The two sites have their ranking fairly close and their uniqueness of products. They differ quite high in their layout of website and how the information is displayed.
 

Conclusion

In the yogurt industry, Liberte and Oikos are popular brands that fulfil the needs and cravings for great tasting, nutritious yogurt.    Using keyword sentences throughout their sites like “Taste Nutrition and Healthy” and “Greek Yogurt” I saw that it was hard to rank both brands for taste nutrition and healthy but easier for Greek yogurt. When searching for tasty nutritious and healthy yogurt it was hard to come across a specific brand website. However, when searching for Greek yogurt both brands definitely appeared.  In my opinion the overall winner of this SEO Search analysis is Liberte for their overall website performance and use of keywords.
