Success Stories

See how leading companies leverage our advanced link building services

Global Freight Forwarder Scaling Organic Leads Across Trade Lanes

A mid-sized B2B freight forwarder wants to rank for high-intent terms like “FCL shipping China to USA” and “LCL freight Europe to MENA,” but lacks the internal resources to build authoritative links across multiple regions. The Trust Agency develops a custom link building strategy combining multilingual guest posts, digital PR placements in logistics publications, and authoritative edu/Wikipedia links to cement topical authority in global shipping.

Outcome

Within 9–12 months, the forwarder sees a 120% increase in organic quote requests and first-page rankings for key lane-specific keywords in multiple languages, while consolidating all link-building under a single, transparent partner.

Enterprise 3PL Using Digital PR to Dominate Logistics Thought Leadership

An enterprise-level 3PL and contract logistics provider wants to be perceived as a thought leader in supply chain resilience and nearshoring, but current content is not earning high-authority links. The Trust Agency designs a digital PR and HARO-powered campaign that promotes original data reports (e.g., port congestion trends, freight index data) to top-tier business and trade media, while supporting it with contextual editorial links from logistics and manufacturing publishers.

Outcome

The 3PL secures dozens of DA70+ editorial backlinks, gains recurring mentions in tier-1 logistics media, and sees a significant uplift in non-branded organic traffic to its solutions pages, supporting enterprise sales conversations with stronger brand authority.

Freight Brokerage SaaS Platform Accelerating Signups Through Authority Links

A SaaS platform that helps freight brokers manage loads, carriers, and invoicing struggles to outrank legacy software competitors. The Trust Agency implements a blended strategy of niche guest posting on freight tech blogs, link bait content (ROI calculators, broker-margin benchmarks), and targeted high-DA placements plus Web 2.0 diversification to strengthen the brand’s backlink profile in the freight technology niche.

Outcome

The SaaS provider moves into the top 3 positions for core terms like “freight broker software” and “load management software,” increases organic trials by 80%, and reduces paid acquisition dependence due to improved organic visibility.

E‑commerce Freight Marketplace Boosting Trust and Transaction Volume

An online freight marketplace that compares quotes from multiple carriers needs stronger trust signals and better rankings for “compare freight quotes” and route-specific search terms. The Trust Agency rolls out ethical, white-hat link building via content outreach, comparison guides on high-authority logistics and SME business sites, and digital PR campaigns tied to shipping price index updates, supplemented by technical authority links and one-way dofollow placements.

Outcome

The marketplace experiences a sharp increase in organic sessions from SMEs and importers/exporters, a 60% uplift in completed shipment bookings, and higher conversion rates driven by a visibly stronger authority profile in SERPs.

Multi-Location Freight & Logistics Agency Using Local SEO Link Building

A regional freight and trucking company with multiple depots wants to dominate local search for “freight company near me,” “LTL trucking [city],” and “pallet delivery [region]” across several service areas. The Trust Agency deploys a local and multi-location link building campaign, securing citations and local editorial links from regional business news, chambers of commerce, and industry associations, while using affordable foundational links and Web 2.0 properties for safe profile diversification.

Outcome

The company achieves map-pack and first-page rankings in each target city, driving a consistent increase in local B2B inquiries from manufacturers and distributors and filling previously underutilized capacity on key routes.

SEO Agency White-Labeling Freight Industry Link Building for Its Clients

A digital marketing agency specializing in transportation and logistics SEO needs scalable, niche-relevant link building for several freight clients but does not want to hire and train an in-house outreach team. The Trust Agency acts as a white-label link building department, delivering custom campaigns per client-ranging from pure white-hat guest posts and HARO coverage for conservative brands to more advanced PBN and specific backlink strategies for aggressive growth clients-alongside AI-assisted reporting for each campaign.

Outcome

The agency improves rankings and lead volume across its freight client portfolio, increases its retainers by adding a premium link building line item, and scales to dozens of campaigns without operational bottlenecks or needing multiple vendors.
