The challenge

IDHL entered to boost traffic, rankings, and new deposit players across two UK sites (arcade and bingo) and to grow into international markets. Each site needed a tailored approach and an SEO partner capable of delivering scalable organic results.

Our approach

Strengthening SEO foundations 

We started with fundamentals: fixing technical issues, improving site optimization, applying schema, and enhancing internal linking for better crawlability and authority. 

Our experts continuously analyzed competitors and keyword gaps. We found key chances in linking, technical features, and content performance, including new category pages and copy for tombola Ttalks, the community blog.

Strong PR and Outreach strategy 

Using layered off‑site tactics, we ran high-authority PR campaigns and targeted outreach, gaining major national and regional coverage. This boosted domain authority, reinforced category relevance, and helped close competitive link gaps.

The results

It’s no surprise that an excellent collaboration led to outstanding wins: record PR with over 300 features, an improved average DA of 68, and key terms for ‘bingo’ and ‘arcade’ ranking on page one.

  • tombola Bingo: +44% visibility, +74% non-brand clicks YoY, and +23% brand demand. Key term ‘bingo’ holds strong at position three.
  • tombola Arcade: +301% non-brand clicks YoY, +12% visibility YoY, and market rank rose from 153 to 34.

Our partnership continues as IDHL supports tombola’s expansion into Italian and Spanish markets.
