Success Stories

See how leading companies leverage our advanced link building services

Local Funeral Home Group Dominating City-Level ‘Funeral Services’ Keywords

A multi-location funeral home group partners with The Trust Agency to increase visibility for ‘funeral home near me’ and ‘cremation services [city]’ searches. The agency designs a custom mix of local citation links, ethical white-hat guest posts on local news and community sites, and Web 2.0 profiles to support each individual branch location.

Outcome

Location pages climb into the local pack and top 3 organic results in their metro area, producing a 40–60% uplift in pre-need and at-need inquiry calls and form submissions within 6–9 months.

B2B Funeral Supplier Scaling National Dealer Network Visibility

A B2B manufacturer of caskets and memorial products needs to drive more online leads from funeral homes across the country. The Trust Agency builds a strategic campaign around industry-specific guest posts, trade publication digital PR, and authoritative resource-page links (e.g., ‘funeral home supplier directories’) while supporting local dealer landing pages with regional link building.

Outcome

The supplier ranks on page one for high-intent terms like ‘funeral home supplies wholesaler’ and ‘casket manufacturer’, increasing qualified B2B leads to their sales team and independent dealer network by over 30%.

Enterprise Cremation Brand Expanding Into New States

A national, enterprise-level direct cremation brand is launching into several new states and needs rapid SEO authority to compete with entrenched local providers. The Trust Agency deploys a full-spectrum campaign: digital PR placements on national news sites, state-level resource links (hospice, elder law, grief support organizations), EDU citations where possible, and a controlled layer of PBN and Web 2.0 links to accelerate authority in new markets.

Outcome

The brand’s new state pages achieve first-page rankings within months instead of years, cutting paid search dependency and reducing blended cost-per-acquisition for cremation packages by 25–40% across the rollout markets.

SaaS Platform for Funeral Homes Becoming the Category Leader

A SaaS company offering management and arrangement software for funeral homes wants to be the go-to solution in the industry. The Trust Agency crafts a content-driven link building program using HARO, expert guest posts on deathcare and small business sites, and digital PR campaigns around original data (e.g., trends in online memorialization) to secure high-DA backlinks and brand mentions.

Outcome

The SaaS brand ranks top 3 for key B2B SaaS queries such as ‘funeral home software’ and ‘funeral management system’, leading to a sustained increase in demo requests and inbound partner opportunities from funeral home groups and industry associations.

E-commerce Memorial & Urn Retailer Overtaking Marketplaces

An e-commerce store selling urns, memorial jewelry, and keepsakes competes heavily with marketplaces like Amazon and Etsy. The Trust Agency builds a diversified backlink profile using product round-up placements, editorial features on grief and lifestyle blogs, niche guest posts, and authority links from consumer guides and comparison sites, supported by affordable foundational link tiers.

Outcome

Category and product pages gain stable rankings for non-branded commercial terms like ‘personalized urns’ and ‘memorial jewelry’, increasing organic revenue and reducing reliance on paid ads for new customer acquisition.

SEO & Marketing Agency White-Labeling Funeral Industry Link Building

A digital agency with multiple funeral home and cremation clients wants to scale link building without adding in-house staff. The Trust Agency provides white label link building, delivering custom, ethical campaigns per client-including local links, funeral-industry-specific guest posting, and selective PBN use where appropriate-under the agency’s brand and reporting structure.

Outcome

The agency consistently improves rankings and lead volume for its funeral clients while increasing its own margins, enabling it to pitch higher-value SEO retainers to additional funeral homes and deathcare brands.

Clear reporting helps owners, marketers, and multi-location groups understand ROI and justify investment in SEO over traditional media.
