Logistics brand earning Dutch trade and supply-chain coverage

A logistics operator serving Dutch import and distribution corridors had service pages in Dutch, but almost no mentions on trade, transport, or supply-chain publishers. Shippers still discovered competitors through those channels.

English global PR and LinkedIn coverage did not transfer into Dutch search. Procurement and operations readers expected Dutch-language pieces on sites they already trusted around Rotterdam and national freight topics.

The company needed a paced build on Ahrefs DR 30+ trade hosts, accurate operational language, and links to corridor and service pages rather than only the homepage. Operations leads had to review every draft for correctness.

We sourced Dutch trade, transport, and supply-chain publishers matching the corridors and service lines, then filtered against DR and traffic floors. Samples included topical notes so operations could reject poor-fit hosts early.

Native Dutch writers worked from approved operational briefs. Articles covered lead times, warehousing habits, and buyer education without overstating capacity. Operations review sat before outreach confirmation.

Monthly volume stayed modest by design. The shared sheet logged host type, destination URL, and review status so commercial marketing and operations shared one queue.
