Case Study: Linkbuilding (Outreach)

I started planning and implementing outreach and linkbuilding campaigns for my account ADticket.de, a ticket service provider for theater, sports, concerts, tourism, and trade fairs in Germany, in August 2012. The goal was to increase the authority of the website, boost brand awareness and rankings on Google.de.

1.) http://www.wn.de/Freizeit/Ratgeber/Reise/2013/03/Ausflug-Die-groessten-Kultur-Ereignisse-in-Koeln-2013

Editorial link generated on a regional online newspaper WN.de which has outstanding SEO and social media KPIs (s. screen shot below). The article’s topic is highly relevant for ADticket.de, namely: The greatest cultural events in Cologne in 2013 (German: Die größten Kultur-Ereignisse in Köln 2013). The anchor text “das Ticketportal AD Ticket” is natural and descriptive but contains the main keyword “ticket”.

2.) https://www.unideal.de/magazin/konzert-highlights-der-wintersaison-kostenguenstig-live-erleben

Editorial link generated on a student deal website which is authoritative in its niche. The article’s topic is highly relevant for ADticket.de, namely: Live cheap concert highlights of the winter season (German: Konzert Highlights der Wintersaison kostengünstig live erleben).
