Success Stories

See how leading companies leverage our advanced link building services

Niche Miniatures Manufacturer Dominates ‘Skirmish Wargame’ Keywords

A mid-sized tabletop miniatures manufacturer wants to rank for high-intent terms like “resin war gaming miniatures” and “28mm sci-fi skirmish models” but is stuck on page two. The Trust Agency builds a custom mix of white hat guest posts on painting blogs, hobby magazines, and wargaming review sites, plus forum and Web 2.0 links to mirror how tabletop communities naturally talk about the brand.

Outcome

Core product and category pages move to top 3 positions for 15+ transactional keywords, doubling organic traffic to product pages and lifting direct online sales to FLGS partners by 40%.

Enterprise Board Game Publisher Launches a Flagship IP Globally

A large, enterprise-level board game publisher is launching a new flagship IP across the US, EU, and Asia and needs global organic visibility for branded and non-branded terms (e.g., “co-op campaign board game,” “[IP name] review,” “[IP name] expansions”). The Trust Agency deploys multilingual digital PR, HARO, and editorial placements on top-tier gaming and entertainment outlets, while also running localized link building campaigns in key languages.

Outcome

The new IP dominates page one for 30+ branded and generic game-style queries across multiple locales, driving sustained pre-order demand, improved retail sell-through, and stronger leverage with international distribution partners.

SEO Agency White-Labels Tabletop Gaming Link Building for a Key Client

A digital marketing agency lands a major tabletop gaming client (a hybrid direct-to-consumer and retail-friendly publisher) but lacks deep industry relationships and outreach capacity. They white-label The Trust Agency’s niche guest posting, digital PR, and forum link building services, using AI-assisted prospecting and monthly reporting to seamlessly integrate into their existing SEO retainers.

Outcome

The agency delivers a 120% organic traffic increase and major ranking wins for their gaming client without hiring in-house link builders, boosting client retention and enabling them to pitch more tabletop brands with confidence.

Tabletop Accessories E‑Commerce Store Recovers from Stagnant Growth

An online store selling dice, playmats, terrain, and RPG accessories hits a growth plateau despite strong conversion rates. The Trust Agency designs a tiered strategy: content marketing and link bait (e.g., “complete dice buying guides”), high DA editorial links from hobby and geek lifestyle sites, plus affordable foundational Web 2.0 and profile links to diversify the backlink profile.

Outcome

Organic sessions increase by 85% in 9 months, with category pages for “metal dice,” “RPG accessories,” and “DM screens” breaking into top 5 positions and increasing revenue from organic search by 60%.

SaaS Campaign Manager for FLGS Uses Links to Own the ‘Tabletop Retail Software’ Niche

A SaaS company providing inventory, event, and subscription management software for Friendly Local Game Stores (FLGS) needs to rank for B2B keywords like “board game store POS,” “tabletop retail software,” and “FLGS event registration tools.” The Trust Agency builds authoritative thought-leadership links through HARO, industry-specific guest posts, and EDU/wikipedia-style references to position the brand as a trusted infrastructure provider for the tabletop retail space.

Outcome

The SaaS vendor captures top 3 positions for high-intent B2B queries, increasing qualified organic demo requests by 70% and lowering paid acquisition costs as organic leads become the primary growth channel.

Local Game Store Becomes the Regional Hub for Tournaments and Events

A regional Friendly Local Game Store wants to dominate local searches around “board game store near me,” “Magic: The Gathering tournaments,” and “D&D events [city].” The Trust Agency rolls out local and multi-location link building, securing mentions in city news outlets, local blogs, university clubs, hobby forums, and event calendars, combined with citations and localized Web 2.0 properties that highlight the store’s event schedule and community role.

Outcome

The FLGS ranks in the top map pack and organic results for high-intent local search terms, increasing in-store foot traffic and event attendance by 50% and helping secure exclusive prerelease events from major publishers.
