To support Skyscanner’s ambitious testing roadmap, Intrepid established a highly structured and collaborative testing program focused on efficiency, prioritization, and clean execution.

Key elements of the approach included:

• Developing precise testing schedules and workflows to support a consistent rollout cadence
• Assigning a specialized four-person team (divide and conquer), each contributing expertise across SEO strategy, testing methodology, implementation, and analysis
• Prioritizing tests based on projected impact, scalability, and business value to maximize results.
• Embedding directly within Skyscanner’s existing processes and technology stack to streamline execution.
• Implementing the majority of tests directly within Skyscanner’s Contentful CMS, which allows for faster deployment and reduced overhead.
• Testing a variety of on-page SEO elements, including title tags, meta descriptions, H1s, heading structures, and FAQ content across multiple templates and markets.
• Measuring every test individually to determine its impact and identify opportunities for broader implementation. Keyword footprint growth and average ranking improvements served as the primary performance indicators when evaluating success.

This integrated approach enabled the team to launch approximately five new tests every week while maintaining quality and consistency across multiple markets and languages.
