Stellar SEO Is the Industry’s Leading Link Building Agency
Stellar SEO is a link building agency that builds authority for brands competing in high-trust, high-value search environments, including personal injury law, finance, healthcare, SaaS, and eCommerce. We’re an award-winning, Inc. 5000-recognized agency specializing in industry-leading link building for competitive markets. We prove our link building capabilities in the most demanding industries, because if they work there, they work everywhere.
Founded in 2012 by Travis Bliffen, Stellar SEO has grown from a small consultancy into one of the most trusted teams for white-hat link acquisition, strategic outreach, and authority-driven organic growth. Over more than a decade of testing and refinement, we have developed our proprietary methodology, the Entity-Driven Link Building System (EDLS), which guides every custom campaign we execute: a scalable authority-building system across industries.
Today, we support brands nationwide, from national law firms to financial companies to partner agencies that white-label our link building services.
We built Stellar SEO for businesses that want a clear strategy, transparent execution, and measurable results.
Clients choose us because we show them what works, what doesn’t, and how to outperform competitors in the areas that matter most.
Recognized on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies lists, Stellar SEO continues to set the standard for quality, integrity, and performance in modern organic marketing.
At Stellar SEO, our expertise centers on authority-driven link building for competitive markets. We combine strategic outreach, entity-informed content alignment, and data-backed execution to help brands achieve measurable, lasting growth.
Our work is built around a single objective: earning high-quality links that function as authority signals. For clients in highly competitive legal markets, this includes structuring practice areas, internal linking, and content frameworks to maximize the impact of link acquisition. Every campaign is tailored to your goals, audience, and competitive landscape.
For over a decade, Stellar SEO has been recognized as a leader in white-hat link building. We focus exclusively on earning editorial, in-content backlinks from authoritative, relevant publications that strengthen your website’s topical authority and entity recognition.
Our team has built more than 25,000 verified, contextually relevant links for clients in law, finance, and real estate. Every campaign is grounded in manual outreach, transparent reporting, and quality standards designed to meet Google’s guidelines.
We also provide white-label link building partnerships for agencies that need scalable, trustworthy link acquisition solutions without compromising brand integrity.
Whether your goal is to recover from past penalties, expand nationally, or earn placement on top-tier sites, Stellar SEO’s link building process helps you grow authority, rankings, and trust simultaneously.
Our work with personal injury and mass tort law firms focuses on building the authority signals that determine rankings in the most competitive legal markets. Rather than offering generic SEO services, we specialize in precision link building that strengthens trust, relevance, and entity authority for high-value practice areas.
Through our Entity-Driven Link Building System, we earn editorial links from trusted legal, news, and industry publications that reinforce how law firms are classified and surfaced across Google and AI-driven search platforms. These links function as authoritative citations for core practice areas such as personal injury, mass tort, and maritime law.
Our approach supports firms competing against national advertisers and lead aggregators by improving visibility where it matters most. By focusing on authoritative placements, contextual relevance, and long-term signal integrity, we help law firms reduce reliance on paid channels and build durable organic visibility that compounds over time.
We specialize in custom link outreach, and have built over 25,000 links across countless industries.
Healthcare Link Building
Our healthcare link building practice helps providers, medical organizations, and health-focused companies strengthen authority in high-trust markets. Through precision link acquisition and placements on reputable medical and industry publications, we improve visibility for competitive healthcare queries and support long-term credibility without reliance on paid channels.
Real Estate Link Building
We help real estate investors, institutional buyers, and property technology companies earn the high-authority links needed to attract motivated sellers and qualified deal opportunities. Our link building approach secures placements with respected finance, investment, and PropTech publishers, strengthening credibility and amplifying the visibility of your acquisition funnels and deal pipelines.
Finance and Investment Links
We help financial institutions, lenders, and advisory firms earn the authoritative links required to compete in strict YMYL environments. Our strategy targets placements on respected finance, investment, and business publishers, reinforcing your entity signals and strengthening the trustworthiness regulators and search platforms expect from credible financial brands.
Across all industries, our method remains the same: combine authority-driven link building, entity-aligned structure, and data-backed decision-making to deliver consistent organic growth that compounds over time.
When Google rolled out its Panda and Penguin updates in 2011, the SEO landscape shifted overnight. Thousands of businesses that relied on cheap, manipulative link building lost their rankings and traffic within weeks. Many of the agencies responsible for those results vanished, leaving business owners without answers or support.
Amid that chaos, Travis Bliffen, an Army veteran turned SEO strategist, saw an opportunity to rebuild the industry on transparency, strategy, and measurable performance. Drawing on the discipline he developed during his military service, Travis founded Stellar SEO in 2012 with a clear mission: to help businesses recover from algorithmic penalties and grow through ethical, sustainable optimization practices.
Launching an agency during one of the most disruptive periods in Google’s history forced us to master what others ignored. We learned how to diagnose ranking losses, rebuild authority, and create SEO systems that stand the test of time.
Those same principles guide our work today. What began as penalty recovery evolved into one of the industry’s most precise, data-driven SEO processes, trusted by agencies, law firms, and enterprise brands nationwide.
As Stellar SEO gained traction, Travis began sharing his insights on Search Engine Land, Search Engine Journal, Semrush, Yahoo, and Website Magazine, educating marketers on practical, data-driven strategies for link building, SEO content writing, and entity-based optimization. His focus on clear communication and proven frameworks helped hundreds of companies rethink their organic growth strategies.
By 2021, we began applying our authority-building expertise to personal injury, mass tort, and maritime law firms that needed stronger visibility in competitive legal markets. This work expanded into real estate investment groups and financial service companies that required compliant, trust-focused authority signals to compete. These campaigns helped refine EDLS into a system that adapts to the unique constraints and expectations of each high-value industry we support.
Today, Stellar SEO is recognized on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies lists, reflecting our commitment to consistent execution and measurable success. We continue to lead in advanced link acquisition, authority engineering, and AI-informed search strategy, helping clients build the signals that influence both traditional rankings and emerging AI platforms.
What began as a mission to bring clarity and integrity to organic marketing has grown into a nationally recognized authority in link building and competitive-market strategy. At Stellar SEO, we believe strong outcomes come from doing purposeful work with precision and transparency every single time.
