| Tactic | We do | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Local SEO | Yes (where local search applies) | Limited but useful for retailers with physical pickup or specific city focus. |
| eCommerce SEO | Yes | Product pages, category pages, schema, internal linking. Core deliverable. |
| PBN deployment | Yes | Our own 40+ anabolic-tagged network. Editorial placements, not link injections. |
| Parasite SEO | Yes | Reddit, Quora, Medium, Substack. Ranks where own-domain cannot. |
| Forum citation | Yes | 100+ warmed accounts on Evolutionary, Meso-Rx, etc. |
| Negative-SEO defence | Yes | SERP monitoring, backlink-spike detection, disavow workflow. |
| White-hat link trade | Sparingly | Where it makes sense and the partner accepts the category. |
| Cloaking on own domain | No | Triggers algorithmic flags. We use cloaking only on disposable domains for paid traffic, never on your primary SEO surface. |
| Bot traffic / spam links | No | Burns the domain. We do not run tactics that compromise the asset we are building. |

01 Will my domain get penalised for steroid content?
Penalisation risk is mitigated through structure, signal stack, and PBN-driven authority distribution. Not eliminable, but actively managed and monitored.
02 How long until we see results?
First lift in 60 to 90 days (Reddit and parasite). Compounding gains in months 4 to 12 as PBN authority and direct-domain rankings catch up.
03 Do you guarantee #1 rankings?
No. Anyone who guarantees #1 in this category is selling fiction. We commit to deliverables, methodology, and reporting transparency. Rankings follow.
04 What if Google penalises us during the engagement?
Manual actions and algorithmic demotions are addressed under the engagement at no additional cost up to a documented threshold. The contract specifies what is covered.
05 Can we work with you and another SEO agency in parallel?
Strongly discouraged. Conflicting tactics on the same domain create attribution chaos and increase penalty risk. We accept one SEO partner per engagement.
