How We Helped A $26-Bn Business Boost Traffic By +36%

Why would a globally recognized design software brand valued at $26 billion need to boost its link-building efforts?

It’s simple.

Even the largest companies need to stay ahead of the competition to protect their spot in the SERPs.

Within 9 months, we helped our client achieve a +36% increase in overall site-wide traffic, translating into $5,551,586 in added traffic value.

Here’s how we did it.

💡 Our Strategy

For this client, we set clear goals from the start. Beyond metrics like DR, traffic, and traffic value, we focused on making sure each link had maximum impact.

We ensured that:

✅ Links were thematically relevant to the content they were placed in.

✅ Links were positioned in the upper half of articles (ideally under main headings) for increased visibility.

✅ We closely tracked the anchor text used to maintain consistency and keyword relevance.

⛰️ The challenges

Fierce competition: Competitors were gunning for their spot. Our client not only needed to maintain their position, but also wanted to widen the gap between them and their competitors.

Lack of capacity: Despite being a household name, our client lacked the internal resources to execute a high-quality, large-scale link-building campaign.

Outreach restrictions: They couldn’t send link-building requests from their official company email address, which meant that they needed someone to manage outreach without compromising their brand’s reputation.

⭐ Our solution

We developed a targeted, high-quality link-building strategy that delivered the powerful results our client needed.

Here’s what we did:

✅ High-quality link exchanges: We knew we needed to secure links from the best. So we executed high-quality link exchanges, working with authoritative websites in design, tech, and marketing. These exchanges were a win-win for our client and those websites we exchanged links with.

✅ Relationship building: We focused on developing genuine relationships with website publishers. This allowed us to secure backlinks from high-DR domains that are tough to earn naturally. This meant our client was featured on some of the best sites in their industry.

✅ Resource page link building: Our client has developed useful tools like AI resume builders and PDF editors. Because of this, resource page link building was a no-brainer. We targeted websites that list helpful tools and resources, and secured high-quality links from these pages.

✅ Guest posting: We took advantage of highly targeted guest posting opportunities as they arose and targeted niche sites with high domain authority, credibility, and traffic.

🚀 The Results

Our efforts led to some seriously impressive results:

✅ +36% increase in site-wide traffic

✅ $5,551,586 traffic value increase
