Shortlist is the best bang for your backlink buck

Shortlist is the best bang for your backlink buck I have found on the market! They have a well-oiled machine and know exactly what they are doing. You see immediate results (immediate, by SEO standards, meaning after just a few months). I've used their services across three roles I've had and will probably continue doing long-term business with them until I retire!

Excellent Partners

Working with Shortlist has been a great experience. I collaborated with Viktor and Marina on several projects, including content creation, web development support, and backlinks. Their expertise and professionalism consistently stood out.

From addressing page speed issues to developing custom tools for clients, the Shortlist team handled tasks efficiently and delivered on time. Their ability to integrate seamlessly into our workflow and provide effective solutions made a noticeable impact on our goals.

If you’re looking for a skilled and reliable team, I highly recommend Shortlist and look forward to working with them again.

Professional link-building services

I’ve been working with Shortlist for two years, and the experience has been excellent. Darko, our account manager, is highly professional and communicative, making everything seamless. Their operating system and detailed reporting provide full transparency and easy access to all updates.

I trust Shortlist to consistently deliver quality results with minimal input on my part, and their work has clearly contributed to our strong domain authority. I highly recommend Shortlist.io for effective and reliable SEO and link-building services.

Shortlist - an excellent SEO link building partner

Shortlist and their team, led by Darko in my case, did extremely well and delivered on all aspects of our cooperation.

They worked on some of our link-building campaigns for around a year and the performance was excellent.

Articles were of great quality human written, and tailored to our niche. If there ever was a problem with a website where a link was built - it was very swiftly corrected or improved, and the communication from their team was excellent.

Shortlist is a recommended SEO and link-building service.

An Exceptional Experience.

Working with Shortlist has been an exceptional experience. Their communication is so punctual and clear I sometimes forget their team members do not work directly for our company. This is echoed in their quality of work as they continuously produce material as if they had designed our brand themselves. I would recommend Shortlist to anyone looking for website and content development.

I've had the pleasure of working with Viktor and Pepica during our time with Shortlist. They are professional in obtaining the appropriate links to get our authority increased, timely in the delivery of the links requested, and their communication is spectacular when following up on requests or communicating that a project has been completed. If you're looking for a reputable company to help you with backlinking, Shortlist should be a top choice for your marketing team.

ElephantDrive brought Shortlist.io's team on to help us improve our organic traffic - they've been nothing short of amazing. We work with them doing on-page SEO, guest articles around the internet and content for our own blog, and it's one of the few vendors we consider to be part of our team. A+

Within 6 months we're seeing a noticable bump in the way google looks at us, and as a result, the traffic we receive.

Great communication, reliable, and friendly!

Darko is extremely professional and very open with communication. The team works hard to get everything in on time every month and if there are any problems, they are corrected rapidly. The team is very flexible when it comes to how you would prefer to communicate as well as monitor the monthly work. Overall very reliable and helpful to reach your goals.

Shortlist is a breath of fresh air!

Working in this industry for over a decade, I have worked with many providers. Shortlist is a diamond in the rough, providing exceptional service, time and time again and keeping their consistency on-point which is one of the hardest things to do in this field. So, well done to the Shortlist team and keep up the great work.

I'm sure that we'll be working together for many more months and years to come! Special thanks to Darko who has been instrumental throughout the process.

Not just a vendor but a true partner

The team at shortlist exceeded expectations with the development of my company logo and website. They listened to our vision and came back with ideas that fit perfectly with what we were looking for and I absolutely LOVE the final product. The team was attentive and patient with feedback as we made iterations of the product also helped guide me through areas I was unfamiliar with including the management of the website, security protections they recommend, and they were mindful of our budget all through the process (no “up-selling”).
I would highly recommend this team to work with!
