Big Tech Brand
Location: California
Size: 100 Employees
Annual Revenue: $50 million
Overview:
This brands in-house link building strategy wasn't yielding clear results after a year of effort. They had been working toward the goal of doubling organic traffic from 8,000 to 16,000 monthly visitors and were spending $10,000 a month on links with poor results.
The Numbers
- Link acquisition cost was, on average, $200 to $500 per link.
- Spending $50,000 a year to employ a fulltime link building specialist.
- Spending $15,000 a year on content creation.
- Spending $6,000 a year for access to an outreach software.
- Organic rankings were staying flat, with minimal increases in organic traffic.
- Did not have access to large publications through in-house efforts or through the link building providers they occasionally tried to leverage to supplement their efforts.
The Results
California Tech Brand hired Vazoola in March of 2018 to fully manage all link building through "Bounty Express". They ended up cutting monthly SEO costs by 50% and within six months grew monthly organic traffic to the 16,000 monthly visitor goal. Current organic traffic is well over 50,000 per month through continued work through Vazoola.
- Bounty Express allowed them to triple their backlinks while increasing quality.
- Within the first 30 to 45 days they started seeing great results.
- After three months they moved all resources over to Vazoola.
- They stopped paying for a yearly subscription to an outreach company.
- Have monthly calls, to strategize on which keywords and landing pages.
- Instead of paying $118,000 a year for link building they now pay $50,000.
