Goals
CCM Recruitment, aimed to create a cutting-edge online experience that empowered them to attract top talent and streamline their operations.
01
Enhanced user experience
CCM needed a fast, intuitive, and engaging experience for job seekers across all devices. They required site navigation and information architecture improvements to ensure easy access to relevant content.
02
Improved SEO performance
Our client wanted to increase organic traffic and search engine visibility through technical SEO and optimized content. They sought to implement structured data and schema markup to enhance search result presentation.
03
Increased scalability and flexibility
Another goal was to build a scalable platform that could adapt to future growth and evolving business needs. They also needed to enable independent content management for their teams in different regions (Ireland and Australia).
Challenge
CCM Recruitment faced challenges with their existing WordPress website, including slow loading times, poor mobile experience, and limited SEO capabilities. The site struggled to attract and convert potential candidates, hindering its ability to effectively serve clients. Additionally, managing content for different regions was cumbersome and inefficient.
Naturaily needed to address these issues while staying within budget constraints. This required a strategic approach that leveraged the best technologies and development practices to deliver a high-performing, scalable, and user-friendly website.
Poor mobile experience
The website was not optimized for mobile devices, resulting in a subpar experience for the growing number of users accessing the site via smartphones and tablets.
Limited SEO capabilities
The existing website lacked the necessary technical SEO optimizations, making it difficult for CCM Recruitment to rank well in search engine results and attract organic traffic.
Difficulty attracting and converting potential candidates
The combination of poor user experience and limited SEO hindered CCM Recruitment's ability to effectively attract and convert potential candidates through their website.
Cumbersome and inefficient content management for different regions
Managing content for both Ireland and Australia regions within a single WordPress instance was inefficient and time-consuming, leading to inconsistencies and delays.
Approach
Naturaily proposed a headless architecture to address CCM Recruitment's challenges. This approach separates the frontend presentation layer from the backend content management system, providing greater flexibility, performance, and scalability.
By using Next.js for the frontend, we aimed to create a lightning-fast and engaging user experience. Next.js's server-side rendering capabilities and built-in performance optimizations would ensure optimal loading times and Core Web Vitals scores.
Leveraging WordPress as a headless CMS would allow CCM Recruitment to continue using a familiar platform while benefiting from the advantages of a decoupled architecture. The team could manage content efficiently, and the separation of concerns would improve website security and stability.
Results
Naturaily successfully delivered a high-performing, scalable, and user-friendly website that empowers CCM Recruitment to attract top talent and achieve their business goals.
The headless setup makes it easy to add new features and handle more traffic without breaking a sweat. And managing content? That’s way simpler now. The teams in Ireland and Australia can work independently, and content creators aren’t stuck waiting on developers to publish their things. Sanity CMS also helped make the whole content process smoother.
The new headless website delivered significant improvements for CCM Recruitment:
Improved user experience: The website now boasts faster loading times, seamless navigation, and an intuitive interface, providing a positive experience for job seekers.
Enhanced SEO performance: Organic traffic increased due to improved technical SEO, optimized content, and structured data implementation.
Increased scalability: The headless architecture provides a solid foundation for future growth and expansion, allowing CCM Recruitment to easily add new features and content.
Efficient content management: Separate instances for Ireland and Australia teams enable independent content management, streamlining workflows and improving efficiency.
