What is off-page SEO?

Off-page SEO is everything that happens outside a website and affects how it ranks. In practice it means links from other sites and mentions of the brand.

Why it matters

Search engines treat a link from a trusted site as a recommendation. Two pages with similar content are often separated in the rankings by the sites that link to them.

Brand mentions without a link count too, and they also influence what AI assistants say about a company.

How we handle it

We start with an audit of existing links and remove the harmful ones. New links are earned with content worth citing and with outreach to relevant sites.
