Overview
The challenge
The client had budget for content but low domain authority. Every guide they published took 6+ months to rank — if it ranked at all.
Our approach
- 01Identified 12 buyer-intent queries where Reddit already outranked their target competitors.
- 02Shipped a single deep post on the highest-value term in the most authoritative sub.
- 03Maintained the thread monthly with fresh comments and updated context.
- 04Cross-linked from adjacent posts in three other subs to reinforce the topical footprint.
The results
The post hit #1 in 47 days and has held. Attributed 1,200 monthly organic visits at zero incremental cost. Now the reference thread for the entire category.
