The challenge

XM APP faced tough competition in both the South Asia and UAE markets. Despite a robust trading platform, the app struggled with visibility, organic traffic, and maintaining competitive rankings for crucial trading-related keywords. There was also a need to enhance their app’s overall reputation, especially in markets saturated with competing apps offering similar services.

The primary challenge was to boost the app’s organic reach and improve keyword rankings in a short time frame to stay competitive.
