Commerce Sequence

Revenue Expansion Roadmap

This sequence is tuned for collection-page authority, commercial research coverage, and durable links into buying journeys.

Start with a full backlink audit using Ahrefs or Majestic. Identify toxic links (spam score > 30) for disavowal. Document domain rating (DR), referring domains, and anchor text distribution. This baseline informs your creative link building strategy for ecommerce sites.

  1. Export top 10 competitors' backlinks (DR > 50)

  2. Analyze link velocity and acquisition patterns

  3. Identify broken backlinks (404s) for reclamation

  4. Segment links by type: editorial, directory, forum, etc.

Pro Tip: Leverage Wayback Machine

Use archive.org to find lost content from competitors that earned links. Recreate it with 10x value and pitch to the same sites for backlinks.
