Here’s another client that I did before the turn of the year. This is from one short burst of work and I managed to get 10 high quality, relevant links in 1 month.
It was a very competitive industry and based in a major city (London) – so as you can imagine, a lot of people with large budgets trying to grab their share of the traffic.
I was also restricted with regards to content – this client only wanted guest posts and couldn’t dedicate a lot of time/resources to creating content or getting it made.
As such, I could have got much more links if I had the freedom to have the content commissioned that we really needed.
However, these 10 links proved to pretty powerful and gave a good boost to the sites traffic.
Here’s where I started in November
So I ended around mid December and as you can clearly see from the graph, traffic steadily increased and seemed to skyrocket around January/February and increasing to just shy of 8,000
An increase sometimes occurs at this time of the year, which is seasonal…
But an increase of this magnitude was most probably due to my links and the Google Fred Update at the start of 2017 – looks like everyone else was doing SEO the wrong way, while my client has obviously kept Google’s AI happy with my links!
And if that wasn’t enough, those 2 graphs all signify UK traffic only.
Here’s a Semrush graph detailing how their rankings jumped after my month of building links.
- Before I started they ranked in the top 3 for 42 keywords (already very good)
- After I finished it steadily increased until they ranked in the top 3 for 84 keywords (highest its ever been in their history)
