In the first month, they focused on technical SEO, which involved optimizing the backend of my website. They dug deep into the technical aspects, ensuring that my site was properly structured, had relevant meta tags, and was mobile-friendly. I was impressed by their attention to detail and how they explained everything in a way that even a non-techie like me could understand. 

They continued with ongoing link building which played a crucial role in increasing my website's authority and visibility in search engine rankings. The team at LinkGraph worked diligently to find relevant opportunities and build relationships with other websites to secure these valuable backlinks. To complement the link building efforts, they also provided supplemental blogs and content optimization. The content was not only well-written but also optimized with keywords and SEO best practices.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Thanks to their expert work in link building and content optimization, the traffic to my website has doubled. Imagine that! More and more people are discovering my online store, browsing through my exquisite lingerie collections, and making purchases. It's like having a steady stream of excited customers knocking on my virtual door. But it's not just about the numbers. The quality of the traffic has also improved significantly. 

I've noticed that visitors are staying longer on my site, exploring different pages, and engaging with the content. This increased user engagement has translated into higher conversion rates, with more visitors turning into loyal customers. It's been so rewarding to see my business thrive and my revenue grow as a result. Not only that, but my website's visibility has skyrocketed in search engine rankings. It's like Romantiques Lingerie has become a shining star in the vast online universe. 

This increased visibility has not only brought in more organic traffic but has also boosted brand awareness. People are recognizing my brand and spreading the word, which is invaluable for a small business like mine. I can't thank LinkGraph enough for their expertise and dedication. They've truly gone above and beyond to help me succeed. Their team has been responsive, understanding my specific needs and tailoring their strategies to align with my brand and target audience. 

It's like having a trusted partner by my side, cheering me on and guiding me towards success.

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

They were responsive through Slack and always ready to address any questions or concerns I had by hopping on a phone call or sending me email updates. Their team felt like a trusted partner, guiding me through the world of SEO and helping me achieve tangible results.

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

What I appreciated most about working with LinkGraph is their friendly and humanized approach. They genuinely cared about my success and took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense to me.

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

I believe there is always room for improvement in any business. One area where LinkGraph could enhance their services is by providing more frequent and detailed progress reports as opposed to just monthly updates. Although they were responsive and communicative throughout the project, I would have appreciated more frequent updates on the progress of my website's link building and content optimization, but this could be me being impatient to see results. As they say SEO takes time!

We came toLinkGraph to dip our toes into Link Building. We ordered a test link and were really happy with the results so, we ended up purchasing a small package which eventually we kept investing into SEO and now we do $5k+ monthly with LinkGraph.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

LinkGraph's efforts contributed to sustained organic traffic growth. We noticed an immediate increase in traffic but the initial surge was just the beginning. What impressed us the most was that the growth didn't stop there—it continued to steadily increase over time.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the director of outreach at a lead generation company. We own over 100 insurance websites that offer consumers free insurance quotes that direct them to the provider. Providers pay us for those leads.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with LinkGraph?

We needed help with SEO and link building.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We sent LinkGraph a list of the pages to which we wanted to build links. Then, they decided which pages to focus on and made a list of the sites they’d build links to. Once they got links to those pages, they put them in a spreadsheet to track the links they got each month. It was all organic.

What is the team composition?

We worked with three different account representatives, and there were another three high-level managers above those account representatives.

How did you come to work with LinkGraph?

A co-worker suggested doing link building with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $72,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from February–December 2021.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with the vendor evolve?

In the time they worked for us, they got 300 links. We weren’t impressed with the quality of their work.

How did LinkGraph address the challenges that arose?

We met with them, and they tried to explain what they could and couldn’t do. I had to explain what the first person told me they’d do and the metrics and standards we were expecting to meet. We had to have two meetings to go over the problems. We kept asking them to improve the quality, but nothing changed. 

Describe the impact this engagement has had on your business.

The links we got from them were good, but they weren’t the quality of work we’d hoped for. We expected the keywords to rank better, but the sites they worked on didn’t have enough traffic.

How was project management handled?

Project management wasn’t good. The person who started our contract handed it over to someone else. When they gave it to the new person, they didn’t review any of our agreed metrics. Then, we were handed to another person, so we got a lot of handoffs that created a lot of confusion and frustration.

Is there anything that the vendor did well or that you would consider a strength?

One of the people we worked with was good; she addressed many of the issues and started cleaning things up. However, she’s not with them anymore. She left while we were still working with them.

In what specific areas can they improve?

They need to improve their communication with their clients. Also, they should put the things in writing to know what they agreed to do. If they cannot achieve certain things, they shouldn’t agree to it.

What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?

Come up with clear standards of what you want and have them in writing so you’re all on the same page. If a new account representative takes over, meet with them immediately and go over those metrics to help the transition. Technically, we shouldn’t have had to do that because we were the client, but since they won’t do it, you need to request that meeting.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the co-founder/CEO of several mental health practices that provide therapy in Washington DC and NYC. I'm responsible for our website and it's technology and outreach and marketing so that people are aware of our mental health services.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire LinkGraph?

We had plateaued in our main market of DC on organic search results. Our website is the primary means by which potential patients become aware of us so we wanted to improve our position further. We also hired them to help us to grow a new website in NYC. More recently, they have become an invaluable partner in a project designed to help people more readily connect with therapists in their community.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals we to become the number 1 organic spot for local mental health practice in the Washington, DC area and to rank above 5 in the highly competitive NYC market.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We've vetted several other SEO firms and have worked with a handful of others. None impressed us the way that LinkGraph did right off the bat. We found them through a web search shortly after they launched.

They impressed us with their ability to find keyword opportunities for us and quickly understand some of the finer nuances of our profession. They also did some initial work for us to demonstrate their capabilities. We met with them in person to seal the deal.

Describe the project in detail.

We hired them primarily to help us with link building campaigns and to help us to develop content for our websites. As our work has continued, we've come to trust the very high level of content that they help us produce and we have increasingly ordered more from them.

They have assisted with some minor technical SEO changes to our existing sites. As we've developed a new website they have been integral and invaluable consultants on it. They've used their own proprietary systems to guide their work when it comes to the SEO optimization of content that they provide to us.

What was the team composition?

We have a dedicated senior-level account manager who is phenomenal. He's responsive and highly knowledgable. I have complete faith in his skills and abilities and his desire to help us succeed. I'm less familiar with the team members other than him, but we have become increasingly impressed with their level of content quality.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our organic search traffic has increased 53% since we started to work with LinkGraph and we have risen to the 3-5 position on high volume search terms. For other more niche search terms, we are routinely in the 1-2 spots. Thanks to them we often beat the biggest name websites in our local market.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Our team has been very pleased to work with LinkGraph. They are organized and responsive to our ideas and thoughts. We primarily communicate with them via Slack and have a dashboard that shows us progress on their deliverables.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They are dedicated to our success and are a thoughtful sounding board when we run ideas by them - sometimes on ideas and projects that are tangential to our main SEO project with them.

Also, I love that they allow for shorter-term contracts compared to the usual 1-year contract with other SEO companies. Lastly, they deliver on their promises. In the most simple terms, without their assistance we would have not undertaken a new project that we've been developing.

Are there any areas for improvement?

At first, they needed time to calibrate their writing to meet our standards. They now routinely meet our standards, and we very rarely have major editing to do at this point. Overall, while I am a fanboy, they don't hold themselves out to be perfect and they look for opportunities to improve and are very open to feedback when minor hiccups occur, like if there's confusion about the timing of deliverable.
