What we delivered, and why it keeps paying off.
Quality matters more than volume here. Every placement sits on a high-authority site, inside an article relevant to your space, the kind of mention that's hard to earn in the car category. Their value compounds in the months after they land, so the earliest placements are already pulling the most weight, with 30 more in the pipeline behind them.
A sample of the live placements. Full list of 27 in the tracker.
Behind your placements is constant publisher and partner outreach. Here's the current push, live in Snov on a clean, well-vetted list and still mid-flight, so the engagement keeps climbing.
Live Snov campaign, mid-flight. Open rate reflects tracked sends only; most sends run with open tracking off to protect deliverability, so the true figure climbs as the sequences finish.
Every page that ranks is an acquisition channel you already paid to build. Deleting the wrong ones writes that off for good. We reviewed all 726 pages flagged for removal against 16 months of the site's own Search Console history and the backlinks, before anything shipped.
| Page | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| /sell-my-car/infiniti/q50 | Keep | Ranks position 5 for "sell my infiniti q50"; was on the remove list. Saved. |
| /sell-my-car/maserati/quattroporte | Keep | 8,300 impressions over 16 months; real demand to protect. |
| /sell-my-car/me/poland | Keep | Geo page (Poland, Maine), 1,337 impressions; slipped onto the list by mistake. |
| /sell-my-car/audi/s4 | Redirect | Ranks only for the Peddle brand; 301 the value into the Audi make page. |
| /sell-my-car/bmw/328 | Remove | 582 spammy referring domains; return a 410 so the spam is not forwarded. |
| /sell-my-car/fiat/bertone | Remove | Zero impressions in 16 months; no recovery path. |
Per-URL verdicts, with the reasoning shown for each.
More search now happens inside AI answers. We rewrote four of your priority pages so AI answers can pull from them directly. That means answer-first structure, with the specific facts and entities the models look for, written deep enough to earn a citation.
Your pages already read well for people. These rewrites add the structure AI assistants look for on top of that: a named subject, plain cause-and-effect, and the exact words people search. When someone asks an assistant where to sell a junk car, these are the pages built to be the answer it cites.
Delivered and ready to publish. Once live, each page is built to earn AI citations and the clicks that follow, and we'll track that lift the moment they're up.

We won't claim all of that. Your team's own page work earns most of it. The 27 links, the decommission review, and the rebuilt content sit underneath as the authority layer, and the pages we backed are the ones already moving most.
All figures from first-party Google Search Console: total US organic clicks, the partnership's first 90 days versus the most recent.
/sell-non-running-car carried the most links and grew the most. Its 12 links went live in September, and monthly clicks climbed from 188 to a 955 January peak, rising straight through the months Q4 normally dips. The money pages only picked up links in April, so their lift is just starting.
Monthly Google clicks, first-party Search Console, first month of the partnership to the latest 30 days. Each chart is scaled to its own page. Numbers in each header are links live per page.
The first stretch pays for the foundation. The returns build over the months that follow, as the links and pages already in place keep maturing.
