How we built a community & drove the conversation in a highly competitive environment.
Adobe wanted to create a community around content that informed, inspired and elevated the
design profession. To do so, a new content program was required to attract visitors to their
website who were not familiar with the brand in a highly competitive landscape. Adobe turned
to NP Digital to help develop the integrated SEO and content program that fuels XD Ideas.

The challenge.
Adobe wanted to create a community around content that informed, inspired and elevated the design profession. To do so, a new content program was required to attract visitors to their website who were not familiar with the brand in a highly competitive landscape. Adobe turned to NP Digital to help develop the integrated SEO and content program that fuels XD Ideas.
LOW BRAND AWARENESS
Site lacked content that UX designers and leaders search for online.
Adobe XD did not rank for nonbranded keywords.
COMPETITIVE PRESSURE
Competitors owned non-branded keywords.
Competitors have aggressive content marketing programs.
DISPARATE CONTENT PLATFORMS
Multiple Adobe domains were competing against each other for keywords.
Domains didn’t have defined user journey, content, or link strategy to make maximum impact.
