The Opportunity

Hunt is losing high-value searches
it should own

Hunt has strong product-market fit but is outranked by Enve on commercial terms and LightBicycle on educational queries. Content can close both gaps.

Content Strategy

Four pillars will close the gap

Large gap — LightBicycle dominates

Educational

Wheel specs explained, tyre pressure guides, tubeless setup, rim tape selection, carbon vs alloy trade-offs

bicycle wheel specs (880/mo) · tyre pressure chart (590/mo) · tubeless ready (480/mo) · rim tape (590/mo)

Moderate gap — Enve leads

Product & Tech

How Hunt wheels are designed, aero testing methodology, carbon layup philosophy, manufacturing process

carbon road bike wheels (590/mo) · carbon fiber rim (260/mo) · lightweight carbon wheels (70/mo)

Untapped

Human Stories

Rider profiles, “why I chose Hunt” stories, race reports, engineer interviews, behind-the-scenes R&D

Google prioritises E-E-A-T — real experience from real people in your organisation

Highest ROI play

Comparison & Buyer Guides

Best road bike wheels, best gravel wheelsets, best aero wheelset — structured comparison pages with spec tables, FAQs, and links to SKUs

best road bike wheels (320/mo) · best cycling wheels (90/mo) · best aero wheelset makers (40/mo)

The Approach

Real voices, distinct stories

01

Real Voices

10-minute calls with Hunt’s product designers, engineers, and sponsored riders — turned into expert-bylined guides that build authority.

02

Distinct Stories

Behind-the-scenes wheel design, wind tunnel testing, carbon layup decisions. Stories only Hunt can tell — impossible for competitors to replicate.

03

Reactive Speed

Product launches, race results, trending searches — our tools surface coverage opportunities and turn content around while it’s relevant.

Minimal time commitment from your team. Maximum distinctiveness in output.

~30 minutes per piece. Interview + review. We handle everything else.

Technical SEO

Six wins you get through
content alone

No site redesign, no theme overhaul, no URL changes needed. Every one of these is delivered as part of the content engagement.

01

Internal Linking Layer

Every guide includes 3–5 contextual links to category pages, anchors mapped to commercial keywords, and direct links to relevant SKUs.

Builds contextual authority to commercial pages · Consolidates anchors · Creates mid-funnel conversion bridges

02

Keyword Consolidation

One authoritative page per intent cluster. E.g. carbon road bike wheels, carbon wheels for road bike, and road bike rims carbon all served by a single canonical guide.

Absorbs informational variants · Feeds authority into primary commercial URLs · No taxonomy changes needed

03

Schema Layer

FAQ schema, HowTo schema, Article schema with author, ItemList schema for comparison tables — all implemented within content pages.

Increases SERP footprint · Improves CTR · Strengthens authority signals

04

Author Signals

Every guide carries an expert byline: “Written by Head of Wheel Engineering, Hunt.” Short bio, LinkedIn, years in industry.

E-E-A-T compliance · Strengthens informational authority · No changes to product pages needed

05

Comparison Pages

The highest-ROI play. Structured pages for “best road bike wheels”, “best gravel wheels” — with comparison tables, spec breakdowns, FAQs, and links to SKUs.

Competes with media · Captures commercial research traffic · Feeds product pages directly

06

“Shop This Spec” Blocks

Every guide ends with contextual product links: “View all carbon road bike wheels”, “Explore 50mm aero wheelsets”, “See lightweight climbing wheels.”

Drives mid-funnel conversion · Contextual, not intrusive · You control this entirely through content

Interactive Content

Custom widgets built
for Hunt’s blog

Data-backed interactive tools that drive engagement, return visits, and backlinks. Designed and engineered by Danny using his aeronautical engineering background.
