Case studies

Real sites, real DA growth

Two founders, two packages, and what happened to their domain authority.

Monthly plan

From DA 31 to 67 in 4 months

Upvoty is a feedback tool for SaaS teams. The product was strong, but the site had a thin link profile, so even good articles stayed on page 2 or 3.

On the monthly plan, 10 to 20 relevant links went live every month: SaaS directories, tool lists and product comparison sites. Every link showed up in the live report, and the Friday email kept the team in the loop without a single meeting.

Four months later, the DA had gone from 31 to 67. Articles that used to sit on page 3 moved into the top 10, and organic sign-ups followed.

"We were writing 1 post a quarter at best. With fresh content and these backlinks, the traffic curve finally started to look like a curve."

Large package

From DA 18 to 41 in 3 months

CountdownTimer.ai makes countdown timers for emails and websites. As a young domain, it had almost no authority, and Google barely showed it for its main keywords.

Matthias picked the Large package: 100 links on hand-checked sites like tool directories, marketing blogs and AI tool lists. The links went live over six weeks and each one appeared in his live report straight away.

Within 3 months his DA went from 18 to 41. Impressions in Search Console grew fast, and the site now ranks for timer keywords it never showed up for before.
