Award-Winning Link Building & Content Marketing Agency
Stellar SEO, based in Nashville, Tennessee, is an award-winning, Inc. 5000-recognized SEO agency specializing in link building, SEO content writing, and strategic outreach campaigns that drive measurable growth.
Founded in 2012 by Travis Bliffen, Stellar SEO has grown from a small SEO firm into one of the most trusted names in white-hat link acquisition and content-driven organic growth, helping clients nationwide outperform competitors in search.
We built Stellar SEO for business owners who are tired of excuses, confusing reports, and underperforming agencies. Clients choose us because we show them exactly what works, what doesn’t, and what to do next.
Our clients include national law firms, financial service providers, and real estate investors competing in highly competitive markets. Each campaign we design is customized, transparent, and built to achieve measurable results that compound over time.
Recognized on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies list, Stellar SEO continues to set the standard for quality, integrity, and performance in modern digital marketing.
At Stellar SEO, we blend advanced search engine optimization strategy with high-quality content and data-driven outreach to help brands achieve measurable, lasting growth. Our approach is built around three pillars: link building, SEO content writing, and strategic industry specialization. Each campaign is tailored to your goals, audience, and market competitiveness.
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 content writing services go beyond keyword targeting. We create pages that clearly define entities, establish relationships, and improve how Google and AI systems interpret your brand.
From long-form blog posts to optimized service pages, every asset is built with structured clarity, EEAT principles, and semantic optimization in mind. We craft content that positions you as the expert in your field while satisfying search intent and building topic depth.
Our writers have produced high-performing content for law firms, financial institutions, and real estate investors, helping clients gain visibility in both traditional search results and AI-generated summaries across tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.
Our custom SEO experience spans several of the most competitive verticals online, allowing us to build strategies that perform under real-world pressure.
Our legal marketing division helps personal injury, mass tort, and criminal defense attorneys dominate local and national search results. Through precision link building and entity-based content, we’ve helped law firms in cities like Chicago, Houston, and Los Angeles secure first-page rankings and increase qualified case leads.
We work with cash home buyers, property investors, and brokerages to capture motivated sellers and buyers through local SEO, link acquisition from trusted real estate publishers, and optimized location pages.
For financial brands, lenders, and advisors, we develop compliant, trustworthy content that builds visibility while meeting the high standards of YMYL and EEAT guidelines.
Across all industries, our methods remain the same: combine authority-driven link building, AI-optimized content, 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 had expanded into law firm SEO, applying our advanced link building and content strategies to help attorneys stand out in competitive practice areas like personal injury, mass torts, and criminal defense. From there, we developed dedicated campaigns for real estate investors and financial service companies, crafting industry-specific SEO systems that emphasize compliance, trust, and long-term authority.
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 link building, SEO content creation, and AI-driven search optimization, helping clients dominate both traditional search results and emerging AI-powered platforms.
What started as one person’s mission to restore trust in SEO has evolved into a nationally recognized agency known for precision, integrity, and results. At Stellar SEO, we believe great outcomes come from doing the right work the right way, every single time.
