Content Strategy Consultation for Global Pharmaceutical Leader

Overview

Client:  Opinions Link (on behalf of Pfizer)

Engagement: Digital Oncology Platform Evaluation

Timeline: September 2024

Key Result: Strengthened content impact by aligning 10+ pages with search intent 

Executive Summary

Engaged as a Content Strategy Advisor, I evaluated Pfizer’s digital oncology platform for healthcare professionals. I identified a disconnect between academically rigorous content and audience search behavior. I developed a repeatable framework to reframe complex medical content, optimize SEO discoverability, and maintain E-E-A-T standards. The outcome was an actionable roadmap to enhance visibility, engagement, and the strategic impact of high-value medical content.

The Challenge 

Despite strong technical SEO, content often relied on internal language, limiting organic discovery. Authoritative articles underperformed because they did not reflect problem-oriented, plain-language terms users actively search for. The challenge was translating expert knowledge into user-centric, discoverable content without compromising scientific integrity.

Role & Strategic Approach 

Conducted a rapid diagnostic assessment to align content framing with user intent, including:

• Evaluated approximately 10 high-value pages to identify gaps between expert content and search queries.

• Proposed reframing ambiguous titles into clear, keyword-rich, benefit-oriented formats.

• Delivered tailored recommendations for each page, creating a scalable framework for ongoing content optimization.

Impact & Outcomes

1). Boosted Visibility

• Updated titles and content framing improved organic search performance.

2). Increased Engagement

• Aligning content with user intent made material more discoverable and navigable.

3). Reinforced Authority

• Strengthened E-E-A-T signals while presenting expert content in search-friendly terms.
