Slice Organic Growth Opportunities

This play creates a massive library of comparison and alternative pages targeting restaurant owners looking to switch from high-fee competitors.

Improvements Summary

Split the current “Owners App/Owner Portal” cluster into two intent-clean pages: /owners-app as the dedicated login/help landing page and /products/owners-app/ as the feature/product page. Add login-first CTAs, quick links, and troubleshooting FAQs to reduce pogo-sticking and improve CTR for portal queries.

Improvements Details

Make https://slice.com/owners-app the primary page for “slice owner portal”, “slice owners portal”, and “slice portal login” with an above-the-fold “Owner Portal Login” button, quick links (reset password, iOS/Android download, merchant support), and an FAQ section with FAQPage schema. Rework https://slice.com/products/owners-app/ to focus on product evaluation terms (Owners App features like order management, reporting, permissions, integrations) with only a single “Log in” link, plus Product/SoftwareApplication schema. Add internal links and persistent nav/footer links pointing to /owners-app with relevant anchors from support and high-authority product pages; if pages can’t be differentiated, 301/canonicalize so /owners-app wins portal intent.

Improvements Rationale

Both URLs currently target the same login keywords, splitting relevance and keeping rankings in striking distance on page 2. A clear two-page architecture aligns content with search intent, improves snippet relevance (“login now” titles/meta + FAQs), and concentrates internal link signals to the login page. Troubleshooting content and direct support paths shorten time-to-login, improving conversions while reducing support friction.
