Building backlinks to your most important pages can have a significant impact on rankings and traffic.

I vet each and every link opportunity to ensure they meet the following minimum guidelines: ☑ Domain Authority: 25+ ☑ Estimated Monthly Traffic: 1,000+ ☑ Moz Spam Score: < 5% ☑ No Google Penalties (no large drops in traffic) ☑ Is relevant to your industry ☑ Isn't part of a PBN Link Building plans start at $2500/month with an initial $300 start up fee. SEO OPTIMIZED CONTENT CREATION High quality content is by far the most important factor when it comes to ranking well in Google. Without it you're chances of ranking are extremely low. While content is important, so is creating relevant content that aligns with search intent. Even high quality content wont rank for your targeted keywords if the content doesn't match the intent behind those keywords. I have developed a process for creating high quality, relevant content that focuses on search intent. This is how I'm able to consistently rank websites for highly competitive search terms. If you're interested in how I handle content creation please reach out and schedule a call. Thanks for checking out my profile! -Derek
