We Helped This Flower Company Build Over 1,200 High-Quality, Relevant Links In Just 11 Months

Our client is a flower delivery company with over six locations around the U.S. that offers same-day delivery, seasonal handcrafted bouquets, flower arrangements, and plants.

The company’s ethos is that gifting flowers can transform someone’s day, rekindle an old connection, or spark a new one.

They’re on a mission to transform the floral industry—delivering longer-lasting, responsibly sourced flowers with less waste.

While our client had a decent number of backlinks to their website when we started working with them, we launched a strategy to reverse-engineer competitor link building that helped us win them over 1,200 backlinks, earning them a domain rating (DR) of 74.

Our campaign ran between November 2023 and October 2024.

Read on to learn how our link-building campaign helped this company earn backlinks from highly authoritative websites with DRs of over 90! 🚀

⛰️ The Challenge

This project was initially quite challenging because we had already built a significant number of links for our client, which made it difficult to find super-relevant domains for them.

⛰️ Targeting lifestyle publications and sites: We didn’t have many resources in the lifestyle niche, so we had to find new opportunities to get the results we were after.

⛰️ High competition: Our client had several well-established competitors with relatively high domain authority. However, we used this to our advantage—more on this later.

• BloomsyBox (DR 62)
• Teleflora (DR 76)
• FTD (DR 76)

💡 Our Strategy

💡 Competitor analysis: Our strategy for this client was reverse engineering competitor backlinks. We conducted a competitor analysis, and from there, we knew which sites to target.

💡 Exploring new niches: As mentioned earlier, we didn’t have many resources in the lifestyle sector, so we focused our efforts on building links in the human resources (HR), career, homes, and real estate niches.

💡 Employee rewards: For example, in the HR and career niche, we looked for websites and articles about engaging or rewarding employees where our client could be mentioned as one of the ways to recognize workers for their efforts.

💡 Home staging: In the homes and real estate niche, we explored sites and articles about home staging and decor, where flowers could be mentioned as an amazing way to stage a home for a quick sale or a great way to freshen up any room.
