Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the CEO of Replast, a company that produces plastic products by injection molding, extrusion, and 3D printing. The main production facilities of Replast LLC are located in Lviv, Ukraine.
For what projects/services did your company hire Panem Agency, and what were your goals?
At some point, we realised that strengthening our online presence is an essential part of the growth that we wanted to see, so we turned to Panem for help.

The first step we worked on together was drawing up a keyword strategy. We prioritized keywords, and the Panem experts suggested ways of how to rank better with the help of those keywords. The next steps included optimizing pages on our website and creating content for our blog. What we especially liked was that they discussed each step with us and made changes on our website only upon our approval.
At the same time, a team of PPC specialists developed a Google Ads strategy, including ad copies and campaigns settings, and presented it to us. After the campaigns were launched, their PPC specialists monitored and adjusted our Google Ads to achieve better results.

Our goal was to deliver a well-structured, modernized, and creative website that is indexed by Google.

As soon as we got the request for a website redesign, we turned to the Panem Agency for their help with the SEO part. When all conditions were agreed upon, they started to work on the semantic core for the client's site.
After that, in a while, we had joint 3 side negotiations via the client's communication tool on which Panem Agency pleasantly explained 'How SEO works and what result client can get'.
The next step of the Agency was to view and give directions of improvement for our recommended website structure. Later we have included them in our layout.

The Agency should slightly improve this area. In general, we are satisfied with the collaboration and will be happy to contact them again.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I work as the marketing manager of Very Good Security (VGS), a leading data security and enablement company. I’m responsible for Demand Generation, Marketing Operations, SEO, and Paid Advertising.
For what projects/services did your company hire Panem Agency, and what were your goals?
Initially, we hired Panem Agency for SEO optimization – with the goal of winning the PCI Compliance market and getting on the first page of Google search results for the keyword “PCI compliance” keyword 33K monthly searches.
A few months later, we started leveraging Panem’s team for paid advertising on Google AdWords. The goal was to receive quality leads from the paid channel.
How did you select Panem Agency and what were the deciding factors?
We were working with many SEO & PPC contractors before the Panem Agency, but the results weren’t satisfying and we didn’t have enough expertise within the company to drive these channels ourselves. Panem was referred to us by one of our VGS employees.
After reviewing the first deliverables from Panem, I was confident in our choice.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and campaigns.
We outsource all SEO and PPC efforts to the Panem team. They helped us create an SEO and PPC strategy as well as build out metrics and analytics to understand the performance of each channel.
On the SEO side, they support VGS in keywords research, SEO tech analysis, blog analysis and optimization, link building, and guest posting.
On the PPC side, Panem helps us conduct keyword research to understand what keywords are worth bidding for, launch campaigns on Google AdWords, optimize campaigns, and bring in leads that convert into paying customers.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We’re in touch with the CTO of the company on a weekly basis (in the beginning of the project, we spoke to Pavlo more than to our own moms due to the scope of work). We have a dedicated project manager, SEO specialists, and Olesya -- a very hardworking and passionate PPC specialist.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
In less than a year, we were able to succeed in our goal to win the PCI compliance market – from not ranking for PCI compliance at all to moving up to the 14th position.
We moved our blog from subdomain to subfolder, per the SEO specialist’s recommendation, and saw a great improvement in the quality of traffic and lead conversions.
We are experimenting with our paid advertisements a lot. Olesya and the team are helping us move as fast as we want to while staying focused on the quality of leads we bring.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.
The most important thing for us is the ability to be flexible, react to our inquiries in a timely manner, and execute. Panem’s project management style hits all these points.
We have weekly check-ins regarding the progress of our project in Google Hangouts, but the team is also very open to initiate a conversation if we need their help ASAP.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
Undoubtedly, the Panem agency is more than just an agency. They are a part of our VGS team. They are all hard working, result oriented, and are ready to go above and beyond to help us hit our business goals.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

What were your goals for this project?
We wanted to improve our website's exposure for the relevant search queries and boost our lead generation potential in organic search.
How did you select this vendor?
We started working with Pavlo Lysyi and Panem Agency after interviewing several SEO consultants. In addition to the fact that they had experience working with technology firms and Western markets, they were also located in Lviv, which allowed for on-site visits to our Lviv office, where our Marketing Team is situated.
Describe the project in detail.
We started a little over two years ago, at the time we had a website with good (but not SEO-friendly enough) content describing our company background, services, and expertise. We had several in-person meetings at the beginning, where we discussed our goals for the SEO, the company specifics, expertise focus, and customer profiles. Pavlo and his team at Panem Agency helped us deeply analyze the structure of the website, improve its performance, speed, discoverability. On the content side, we came up with a strategy to fill in the gaps, fix the current mistakes, developed a vector in which to develop our website and Blog.

Our company began operating in June 2011, but our official relationship with Panem Agency surrounding the brand Otakoyi started much earlier. The engagement is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
It’s been a successful long-term partnership. They launched our first website fully SEO-ready and user-friendly. Our website had good content from the start. Around 80% of our customers are organic, which is part of Panem Agency’s work.
We’re among Google’s top three rankings for highly competitive keywords in the Ukranian market. After we moved our Ukrainian website to a new domain, it only took a few months for the new domain to attain the same positioning as the old one. Being on the first page is great, since SEO in this field is quite competitive, especially in Ukraine. We don’t have any results with the American and European markets yet, but it took us seven years to get to the first position in search results for the Ukrainian market.
How did Panem Agency perform from a project management standpoint?
I work directly with the staff of Panem Agency through chat. I tell them what I need, and they tell me what we have to do to achieve the result. My team works on branding and lead generation through the website.
What did you find most impressive about them?
We’ve had a truly successful experience. We value the CEO’s SEO experience and knowledge.
If someone’s looking for highly-experienced search engine optimizers or excellent copywriters who can find new ways to improve a website and its search results, Panem Agency is a good choice. They not only know SEO, but also how social media works, how to improve a website technically, and how to save money by advertising on alternative platforms like Clutch. We found Clutch because they recommended it to us.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, they’re really great. They have strong technical expertise relating not only to SEO, but also UI/UX, mobile app development, and so on. If someone hopes to optimize their search results on Google or Bing, or wants to improve the user flow of a website or application, Panem Agency has experts in analytics and other fields.
Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?
Panem Agency can work as an outsourcing company for the client, but they can also act as part of the team. They can deliver technical staff and act as the SEO team for a company or a product. This is how they work for us.
They not only execute tasks but also solve issues. They’ve found results for us and completed research without any required guidance from us. They’re a product-oriented team.
