What is the team composition?

We work with 2–3 teammates from Ranko Media.

How did you come to work with Ranko Media?

Ranko Media reached out to us. We chose them because they were one of the first SEO firms that didn’t try to pitch ineffective backlink programs filled with inferior stats and cheap bulk links, including inflated domain authority (DA) and domain rating (DR), ranking for worthless keywords, and low-traffic sites. Ranko Media was the first company to propose proper digital PR that takes a bit more time and budget but also makes a big difference in organic search volume and quality traffic.

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in April 2023, and the engagement is ongoing.

Are there any areas they could improve?

There’s nothing Ranko Media could improve on. They’re a solid team — small but nimble.

Nick helped us build out our website and with outreach for link building. He also helped with local seo for our location pages. In the end, he gave us almost 1000 pages for local SEO, as well as very valuable links. He was very friendly and helped us through every step of the way.

Increased traffic and leads from the website via organic search. Higher rankings in Google and other search platforms. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Everything was delivered on time. There were some bumps in the road regarding launching and gaining access, but I love how, although there were some growing pains, the professionalism in how it was handled was unmatched. I know if anything ever goes wrong in the future, Nick and his team will handle it thoroughly. 

What was your primary form of communication with Ranko Media?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The results they produced were the most impressive. We have hired other SEO's in the past and it didn't seem like anything was getting done. I don't really understand SEO much so it was great to get something for your money and not feel like time or energy was wasted. 

Are there any areas for improvement or something Ranko Media could have done differently?

I wish I could have been able to meet more often with him, because he is extremely busy with the amount of business he gets in. In the end all I care about is results and considering he was able to get amazing results, this is something I can deal with considering the people I have hired in the past were unable to speak with me and not give me any results, I consider this a big win.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They are always on the cutting edge of things and only deliver the highest quality work. I’ve been in link building since 2005, and very few companies have ever earned my trust as a true strategic partner. Ranko Media is one of them. Their team understands white-hat strategies that actually drive results, and they’ve proven to be completely reliable and trustworthy. The return they deliver far exceeds the cost. When my own link-building team needs backup, Ranko Media is the only partner I call.

No
