What happens when
link building is done right.
No vague testimonials, no "results may vary" disclaimers without numbers behind them. Here's exactly what we did, for whom, and what changed.
SaaS / B2B Platform
From page two to page one in 60 days, with 12 editorial placements.
The Challenge
A B2B SaaS platform had strong product-market fit but a thin backlink profile relative to competitors ranking above them for their core commercial keyword. Previous link building attempts with another vendor had produced links from low-relevance, low-traffic sites with no measurable ranking impact.
Our Approach
We ran a competitor gap analysis to identify exactly which link types the top-ranking pages had that this client didn't. We then built a 60-day campaign combining 8 guest posts and 4 niche edits, all on publishers directly relevant to the client's specific software category.
The Result
The target page moved from position 18 to position 4 for its primary commercial keyword within 60 days of the campaign completing. Organic traffic to that page increased alongside the ranking improvement, and the client renewed for an ongoing retainer.
"The process was completely transparent — I verified every placement myself in Ahrefs. This is the first agency that didn't ask me to just trust a screenshot."— Ahmad K., Founder, SaaS Platform
Digital Marketing Agency
32 placements across three campaigns — and two publishers we refused to use.
The Challenge
A marketing agency's SEO director needed a reliable link building partner for multiple client accounts simultaneously, but had been burned before by vendors recommending low-quality sites just to hit a monthly placement quota.
Our Approach
We ran three separate, niche-specific campaigns for three of the agency's clients. When the client suggested two publishers that didn't meet our internal vetting standards, we explained why and proposed alternatives instead — even though it would have been easier to simply use what was requested.
The Result
32 placements delivered across the three campaigns with zero quality complaints. The agency has since expanded the engagement to include white-label reporting for additional client accounts.
"I've tried four other link agencies. Mahwords is the only one that rejected sites I suggested because they didn't meet their own standards. That told me everything."— Sarah R., SEO Director, Digital Agency
White Label / Agency Partner
A white-label link building pipeline for three enterprise accounts at once.
The Challenge
An SEO agency managing several enterprise accounts needed link building capacity without hiring or training an internal team, and needed reporting that could be delivered under their own brand without revealing the vendor relationship.
Our Approach
We onboarded under NDA, built custom unbranded reporting templates matching the agency's existing client deliverables, and ran ongoing monthly campaigns for three of their enterprise accounts in parallel, each with distinct vetting and niche requirements.
The Result
The agency has maintained the white-label partnership for all three accounts on an ongoing basis, citing consistent quality as the deciding factor in trusting Mahwords with their highest-value client relationships.
"We white-label Mahwords for three of our enterprise clients. The quality is consistent enough that we trust it with our biggest accounts."— Marcus T., Managing Director, SEO Agency
A Note on These Numbers
How we measure and report results
Ranking positions are measured using third-party rank tracking tools at campaign start and at the reporting checkpoint, not self-reported by us. Domain Rating figures are pulled directly from Ahrefs at time of placement.
We don't claim ranking movement is solely attributable to our link placements when other SEO factors were also in play during the same period — where that's the case, we say so explicitly to the client and avoid overstating causation in case studies like these.
