## About Şikayetvar

Şikayetvar was founded in 2001, when the internet was still in its infancy, and 
became Turkey’s first exported business model. As the world’s first and largest 
complaint platform, Şikayetvar serves users across Turkey through its offices in
Ankara, Istanbul, and Sivas.

Şikayetvar is Turkey’s first and largest complaint platform, where:

Visitors use the platform as a reference source before making a purchase and form
opinions about companies,

Companies address complaints to win back customers and protect their brand reputation,

The platform acts as an impartial and reliable bridge between consumers and brands.

Şikayetvar selected Kriko as its SEO maintenance, content, and growth partner to
further strengthen its existing organic traffic. With more than 15 million monthly
visitors, over 70 million page views, and more than 2 million individual members,
sikayetvar.com accelerated its growth through its partnership with Kriko.

## What did we do?

We identified that search engines were not crawling the website deeply enough and
that crawl frequency was relatively low. As a result, we focused on reassessing 
the crawl budget and internal linking structure from the ground up, including redesigning
the link architecture where necessary.

To create more meaningful and valuable content for search engines, we analyzed user
journeys and the complaint submission process. We tested the user experience across
the relevant screens, identified scenarios that could lead to thin or low-quality
content, and implemented preventive measures.

We also focused on brand pages and analyzed the user intent behind visits to these
pages. To improve their performance, we enhanced areas such as content, structured
data, and internal linking. This made the pages more useful for users and more accessible
and search engine friendly.
