Directory listings built for AI search

The challenge

Earn trusted placements for Firefly's AI generator tools in the places search engines and AI assistants both read, without the spam risk of old-school directory blasts.

The approach

I screened directories by authority, traffic and AI-visibility score, used a backlink-gap audit to find directories that listed competitors but not Firefly, and wrote unique listings that pair the brand with each target keyword. Submissions were staggered, and open comment sections became a second source of links.

Every prospect is also screened for site traffic, AI-visibility score, topical fit and spam risk. A backlink-gap audit surfaces directories that list competitors but not the brand.

From unranked to page one for “nano blading”

A newer brow beauty bar wasn't ranking for “nano blading” while its competitors were. I paired an on-page overhaul (meta title and description, a keyword-rich product page URL, and internal links from related pages) with digital PR, guest posts and backlinks.
