Who

Notabene – A pioneering crypto regulatory compliance platform dedicated to helping businesses seamlessly meet global compliance standards.

Overview

What

Positioning Notabene as a trusted leader in crypto regulatory compliance by driving organic visibility, boosting traffic, and increasing lead generation.

Despite being a market leader in crypto regulatory compliance, Notabene struggled with organic visibility. Their main competitor consistently outranked them for key industry keywords, limiting inbound leads and diminishing their position as a thought leader. When I began working with Notabene, their primary keyword ranked on the third page of Google, while their competitor held the top spot.

Strategy and Process

To establish Notabene as a trusted educational resource and enhance organic traffic, I deployed a comprehensive content and SEO strategy to elevate the brand’s search rankings and drive lead generation. This strategy positioned Notabene as the go-to source for crypto regulatory compliance through the following efforts:

  • Created over 150 pieces of targeted content, including product pages, blog posts, and lead magnets, tailored to increase non-branded traffic and improve user engagement.

  • Managed the end-to-end content development process, aligning each piece with business goals, SEO best practices, and brand messaging.

  • Co-authored the “State of Crypto Travel Rule Compliance Report,” which secured 90+ backlinks from high-authority domains and was cited by the Financial Action Task Force.

Together with a technical SEO expert, we:

  • Orchestrated comprehensive keyword research and implemented advanced on-page SEO techniques to optimize content for key industry terms.

  • Implemented schema markup across the site, resulting in over 40 featured snippets and improving SERP visibility.

  • Developed a robust internal linking strategy that elevated product-related pages, boosting their rankings.

Multi-Format Content Distribution:

To maximize content reach, I repurposed key pieces across multiple formats, including:

Evergreen Content

I spearheaded the creation of a suite of evergreen content that strengthened Notabene's authority and deeply engaged its target audience:

  • Product-Focused Pages:
    Developed in-depth pages detailing Notabene’s core products and use cases optimized for high-conversion keywords, driving increased traffic and engagement from crypto-native developers and regulators.

    • I also created regular product update pages to support these pages, ensuring ongoing visibility and engagement with crypto-native developers and regulators.

  • Industry Blog Posts:
    Produced detailed, non-branded content focused on crypto compliance and regulatory updates, positioning Notabene as a thought leader in the space and expanding its organic reach.

  • Lead Magnet Report:
    Co-authored the widely cited State of Crypto Travel Rule Compliance Report,” a key industry resource that became instrumental in driving leads and solidifying Notabene’s thought leadership.

Impact

Our data-driven SEO and content strategy directly contributed to the following:

  • 12x uplift in “Book a Demo” conversions, with organic traffic accounting for 55.4% of all demos booked.

  • 6.5x increase in organic traffic, significantly improving Notabene’s visibility in search results.

  • 50x increase in non-branded traffic, driving new visitors through targeted content and SEO efforts.

  • Secured 40+ featured snippets for critical product and industry-related keywords, enhancing Notabene’s visibility among developers and regulators.

  • Attracted 94 new backlinks from high-authority domains, boosting domain authority and improving search rankings.

This project solidified Notabene’s position as a trusted educational resource, driving significant growth in organic traffic, leads, and closed deals.
