Zero Ramadan presence — and no data to build on

Dollarstore had a wide range of products perfect for Ramadan: dates, spices, festive decorations, candle holders, gift sets and much more. But they had never targeted this segment digitally. No dedicated category pages, no SEO-optimised content, no seasonal campaigns.

On top of that, there was no data foundation. Dollarstore worked with a variety of tools without a centralised data hub to connect the different data points and enable data-driven decisions. They didn't know which keywords their audience used, when demand started, or how to allocate their budget.

No digital data foundation

No keyword analysis, no tracking setup, no centralised data hub. Decisions were made on gut feeling.

Zero SEO visibility for Ramadan

No dedicated category pages, no optimised content, no linkbuilding. Dollarstore was invisible in search results for Ramadan.

A narrow time window

Ramadan is a season — there are only a few weeks to get it right. The strategy had to be ready, executed and optimised before the season began.

Data first, content second, ads last — a three-stage rocket

We designed a strategy that started with data and an SEO foundation, built content on top of it, and only added Google Ads once the organic positions were in place. This order meant we had validated demand and optimised landing pages ready when the ads went live.

01

Keyword analysis & data foundation

6 weeks before Ramadan

We started with an in-depth keyword analysis to understand exactly what the audience was searching for, when searches began, and which terms indicated purchase intent.

Keyword analysis: "Ramadan", "buy dates", "Ramadan decorations", "Ramadan gift" etc.
Seasonal analysis: search volume started 3 weeks before Ramadan — the campaign had to be ready
Competitor analysis: no Danish competitor had dedicated Ramadan content
Centralised tracking set up: GA4 + GTM to track all conversions
02

SEO & content build-up

4–6 weeks before Ramadan

We created dedicated Ramadan category pages with SEO-optimised content, internal links and structured data. Linkbuilding focused on Ramadan-relevant pages.

Dedicated category pages: "Ramadan Products", "Dates", "Ramadan Decorations"
SEO-optimised content with keywords naturally integrated into titles, H-tags and body text
Linkbuilding effort targeting Ramadan pages to boost authority
Email marketing: Ramadan newsletter to existing customer base
03

Google Ads: Search & Shopping

2 weeks before + during Ramadan

With optimised landing pages ready, we launched Google Ads campaigns: a Search campaign covering all Ramadan-related search terms and a dedicated Shopping campaign featuring Ramadan products.

Search campaign: "Ramadan" + all related search terms with purchase intent
Shopping campaign: Ramadan-specific with lowest CPC and highest conversion value
Ad extensions: sitelinks to "Dates", "Ramadan Decorations", "Gift Sets"
Budget plan: gradual ramp-up from 2 weeks before to peak during Ramadan
04

Optimisation & real-time adjustments

During Ramadan

During Ramadan we optimised daily: keyword adjustments, budget allocation between categories, and real-time data from centralised tracking.

Daily bid adjustments based on conversion data
Negative keywords added continuously to eliminate irrelevant traffic
Budget reallocated from underperforming to top-performing product groups
Weekly reporting to Dollarstore with actionable recommendations

+900% organic traffic, 1000% ROAS and +30% revenue

The three-stage strategy — data, content, ads — delivered results that surpassed all expectations. The SEO effort drove massive free traffic, while Google Ads captured the most purchase-ready visitors with a 1000% ROAS.

What we learned from the Dollarstore Ramadan campaign

01

Start your SEO effort 6 weeks before the season

Google needs time to index and rank new pages. By starting content build-up 6 weeks before Ramadan, we were on page 1 when searches exploded.

02

No competitors = monopoly ROAS

No Danish competitor had dedicated Ramadan advertising. The result: extremely low CPCs and 1000% ROAS. First-mover advantage is huge in seasonal niches.

03

Data first — creativity after

By starting with keyword analysis and tracking setup, we knew exactly what the audience wanted. Content and ads were built on validated demand — not guesswork.
