An e-commerce catalog that needed to be found.

Génicado is a promotional item designer based in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre, near Nantes: branded merchandise and promotional items, sold to businesses.

My first apprenticeship, and a year full of experience. The brief: support the company in its e-commerce development through SEO optimization of the website. A catalog that big is only worth what search can surface.

Rewrote the pages. Then rebuilt what held them.

SEO content & architecture

Working an e-commerce catalog taught me SEO isn't writing: it's architecture, prioritization, and tracking, with writing on top. The fundamentals I still use every day.

Octobre Rose

I created content for social networks, including the "Octobre Rose" campaign in collaboration with the association Providenti'elles: breast cancer awareness. I built the crowdfunding along with the comms strategy around it. It's the first campaign I got to shape end to end.

Websites for the sister brands

I also worked on creating websites for the company's other brands (Anouk&Ninon, Teknikmark) and an e-commerce shop, all under WordPress. Where I learned that a CMS is only as tidy as the person configuring it.

A year of SEO fundamentals, applied.
