HOW LINKBACK GOT THERE
01
Mapped every keyword to a page

Each search the store showed up for was assigned to the one page that should rank for it, so pages stopped competing with each other.

02
Worked the weekly plan

Every week LinkBack read the new rankings and Search Console data and listed the pages to build or improve first, starting with the terms closest to page one.

03
Earned links from real local sites

Personal outreach went to Atlanta wedding and lifestyle bloggers and photographers, sent from the store's own mailbox. One in five replied to a September batch within a day.

04
Fixed what held pages back

The technical audit flagged speed, structured data and indexing issues page by page, and each fix was logged in the weekly work log.

Figures are from the store's Semrush project. LinkBack logs every change next to the weekly rankings, so each move can be traced to the work that happened that week.

Work and rankings sit side by side. LinkBack does not present one as the cause of the other.

Also in LinkBack: technical site checks, internal link suggestions, page strength with a written explanation, review summaries, and a Brain that holds each client's voice, catalog and rules. All cards show sample data.
