Professional link builders have the skills, knowledge, and tools to create effective strategies tailored to your specific needs. They stay updated with the latest SEO trends and techniques which are crucial for staying ahead in the competitive digital landscape.

High-quality backlinks from reputable sites can significantly boost your site's authority and search engine rankings. </p> <!-- list start --> <div class="col-12 col-lg-08 col-sm-12"> <div class="p-2 mx-2 border border-primary rounded"> <h3 class="mb-3">Know Your Link Building Cost Now</h3> <div id="form"> <form id="initial-form"> <div class="form-group"> <select class="form-control" aria-placeholder="Average Domain Rating" name="link-insertion" id="link-insertion" > <option>Link Insertions /month</option> <option>3 Link / Month</option> <option>5 Link / Month</option> <option>10 Link / Month</option> <option>20 Link / Month</option> <option>20+ Link / Month</option> </select> </div> <div class="form-group"> <select class="form-control" aria-placeholder="Average Domain Rating" name="guest-post" id="guest-post" > <option>Guest Posts/month</option> <option>3 Guest Post</option> <option>5 Guest Post</option> <option>10 Guest Post</option> <option>15+ Guest Post</option> </select> </div> <div class="form-group"> <select class="form-control" aria-placeholder="Average Domain Rating" name="average-domain" id="average-domain" > <option>Average Domain Rating</option> <option>40</option> <option>45</option> <option>50+</option> </select> </div> <button class="theme-btn theme-btn-one" id="next" type="button" > Next </button> </form> </div> <div id="success-message"></div> </div> </div> <!-- rating list end --> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Cost-Effectiveness</h5></li> <p> Comparing the costs of in-house vs. outsourced link building reveals significant cost advantages. Building an in-house team requires substantial investment in recruitment, training, and ongoing management. Additionally, in-house efforts might not always guarantee the desired results due to the lack of specialized expertise.</p> <p> On the other hand, outsourcing can be more cost-effective in the long run. Search Logistics points out that outsourcing allows you to benefit from the established processes and relationships that agencies have developed over time without the need for a significant upfront investment. This cost-efficiency enables businesses to allocate resources more effectively and achieve better ROI on their SEO efforts. </p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Scalability</h5></li> <p> One of the key advantages of outsourcing link building is the ability to scale efforts quickly according to your needs. Whether you require a few high-quality links or a large-scale campaign an external team can adjust to meet your requirements. </p> <p>Outsourcing provides flexibility and scalability allowing businesses to ramp up or down their link-building activities based on their goals and budgets. This adaptability ensures that your link-building strategy remains aligned with your overall SEO objectives and can respond to changes in the competitive landscape. </p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Time Efficiency</h5></li> <p> Outsourcing link building significantly enhances time efficiency by leveraging the expertise and resources of professional agencies. These agencies possess specialized knowledge and experience enabling them to execute link-building tasks swiftly and accurately.</p> <p> They use advanced tools and established processes to automate and streamline various aspects of link building such as identifying link opportunities and managing outreach campaigns which drastically reduces the time required for these activities. This allows businesses to focus on their core operations such as product development and customer service rather than spending valuable time on complex SEO tasks.</p> <p>Moreover, experienced agencies can secure quality backlinks more quickly due to their extensive networks and relationships with high-authority websites leading to faster improvements in search engine rankings and organic traffic.</p> <p> Continuous monitoring and optimization by these experts ensure that link building strategies remain effective saving time that would otherwise be spent on periodic adjustments. </p> </ol> <br> <h3>Steps to Outsource Link Building Successfully</h3> <br> <ol> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Prepare Your Website</h5></li> <p> Before outsourcing link building ensure your website is fully optimized for SEO. This means your site should have high-quality content, good site structure, fast loading times, and mobile compatibility. </p><p> Proper on-page SEO maximizes the benefits of external link-building efforts by ensuring your site is ready to convert the increased traffic into valuable leads and customers. </p> <h3>Website Preparation Guide for Effective Link Building</h3> <ol type="I" style="margin-left: 20px;" > <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Optimize Technical SEO for Crawlability and Speed </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Ensure Proper Indexing:</strong> Use tools like Google Search Console to confirm that all critical pages are indexed and accessible by search engines. Check for any crawl errors and resolve them to avoid missing valuable link equity from incoming backlinks.</li> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Improve Page Load Speed:</strong> A slow website can deter both users and search engines. Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or GTmetrix to identify elements slowing down your site and optimize them. Consider compressing images, minifying CSS/JavaScript, and enabling browser caching.</li> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Implement Mobile-Friendliness:</strong> Since mobile-friendliness is a key ranking factor, ensure that your website is fully responsive. Test it on various devices to confirm smooth functionality and readability across screen sizes.</li> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Fix Broken Links and Redirects:</strong> Clean up broken internal links and unnecessary redirects. These errors can disrupt the user experience and confuse search engines. Tools like Ahrefs and Screaming Frog SEO Spider can help locate these issues so you can repair or remove broken links.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Establish a Strong Site Structure and Internal Linking Strategy </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Organize Your Navigation:</strong> A clear, hierarchical structure helps users and search engines understand your site's layout. Main categories should be easily accessible, and important pages should be no more than two to three clicks from the homepage.</li> <li><strong style="color: yellow;">Optimize Internal Linking:</strong> Internal links help distribute page authority throughout your site and enhance discoverability. Ensure key pages are linked internally using descriptive anchor text relevant to their content. This also supports user navigation and can improve dwell time.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Conduct a Content Audit for Quality and Relevance </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Identify and Update Thin or Low-Quality Content:</strong> Pages with little content or outdated information should be revised or removed. Search engines prefer websites with high-quality, informative pages. Ensure each page offers real value to users and is relevant to your industry or niche. </li> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Align Content with User Intent:</strong> Review existing content to ensure it answers common questions and addresses the needs of your target audience. Content that aligns with user intent not only attracts backlinks but also improves on-page engagement metrics. </li> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Add Visual and Interactive Elements: </strong> Enhance pages with multimedia (e.g., images, videos, infographics) that are informative and engaging. Quality visuals increase user retention and shareability, making the content more appealing for external linking. </li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Optimize On-Page Elements for Target Keywords </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Revise Title Tags and Meta Descriptions: </strong> Use targeted keywords in title tags and meta descriptions, keeping them descriptive and within recommended character limits. Well-crafted tags improve click-through rates and signal relevancy to search engines. </li> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;"> Structure Content with Headers (H1, H2, H3):</strong> Organize content using header tags, ensuring they include relevant keywords. A well-structured page helps users quickly grasp key points and makes content more accessible to search engines. </li> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Optimize Alt Text for Images:</strong> Add descriptive alt text to images, focusing on relevant keywords where appropriate. This helps with image search rankings and enhances accessibility, which can improve your overall SEO score. </li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Secure Your Website with HTTPS </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Ensure your site is secured with an HTTPS protocol, as security is a priority for both search engines and users. If your site hasn't yet migrated to HTTPS, you may be at a disadvantage in search rankings and risk losing visitor trust.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Create and Submit an XML Sitemap </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>An XML sitemap helps search engines efficiently crawl and understand the structure of your website. Use Google Search Console to submit your sitemap and monitor for any crawling issues that may arise.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Implement Schema Markup for Enhanced SERP Features </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Schema markup, or structured data, provides additional information about your website's content to search engines, making it eligible for rich results like star ratings or FAQ snippets. Implement schema for relevant content, such as reviews, product pages, or blog articles, to improve visibility on search engine results pages (SERPs).</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Establish a Content Plan for Ongoing Quality </h5></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;">Maintain Fresh, Relevant Content:</strong> Develop a plan to regularly publish high-quality, relevant content, such as blog posts, case studies, or white papers. Regularly updated content is more likely to attract and retain backlinks. </li> <li> <strong style="color: yellow;"> Create Linkable Assets:</strong> Produce valuable resources like guides, infographics, or research studies that naturally attract backlinks. These “linkable assets” add value for users and encourage other websites to link back to you as a trusted resource. </li> </ul> </ol> <p>By following this guide, you'll ensure your website is well-prepared to leverage the benefits of link building. Not only does this strengthen the foundation for incoming links, but it also enhances overall user experience and SEO health, maximizing the impact of each new backlink acquired.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Understand the Process</h5></li> <p> Familiarize yourself with the basics of link building to better manage and evaluate outsourced efforts. </p> <p>Understanding key concepts such as the importance of backlinks, how they impact SEO, and the difference between white-hat and black-hat techniques will help you set realistic expectations and communicate effectively with your chosen partner. </p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Define Your Objectives and Budget</h5></li> <p> Set clear goals for your link-building campaign. Determine what you want to achieve such as improved search engine rankings, increased organic traffic, or better domain authority. </p><p>Establish a budget that aligns with your objectives considering both the short-term and long-term benefits of your investment in link building. </p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Find the Right Partner</h5></li> <p> Conduct thorough research to identify reputable link-building agencies or freelancers.

Discuss target keywords, outreach tactics, and reporting frequency to ensure the strategy aligns with your overall SEO goals. <br>This collaborative approach helps tailor the campaign to your specific needs and objectives. </p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Evaluate the Quality of Potential Links</h5></li> <p> Before finalizing any link-building strategy, it's important to assess the quality of the potential sites where your links will be placed.

These black hat techniques can provide quick results but pose significant risks to your website's long-term health and reputation. <br> Search engines like Google can penalize websites that engage in these practices leading to a drop in rankings or even complete removal from search results. Always choose agencies that follow white-hat techniques and adhere to search engine guidelines to ensure sustainable and ethical link building. </p> <h5>Over-Promising Services</h5> <p> Be cautious of agencies that promise unrealistic results such as guaranteed top rankings within a short period. Effective link building is a gradual process that requires time and consistent effort. <br> Agencies that make exaggerated claims may resort to black hat techniques to achieve quick outcomes which can harm your website in the long run. It's essential to set realistic expectations and choose an agency that is transparent about their methods and timelines. </p> <h5>Hidden Fees</h5> <p> Ensure transparency in pricing when outsourcing link building services. Some agencies may have hidden costs that are not disclosed upfront leading to unexpected expenses. Before signing any contracts thoroughly review the pricing structure and ask for a detailed breakdown of all potential costs. A reputable agency will be upfront about their fees and provide a clear understanding of what is included in their services. Avoid agencies that are not transparent about their pricing to prevent any financial surprises. </p> <h5>Risk Management Practices for Outsourcing Link Building</h5> <p>Outsourcing link building offers many benefits, but it's essential to be aware of potential risks, such as hidden fees, unethical link-building practices, and overpromising results. Here are specific steps to help you manage these risks effectively:</p> <ol style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Set Clear Contractual Expectations:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>When engaging with a link-building agency, establish a clear, detailed contract. Outline expectations regarding link quality, types of acceptable backlinks (e.g., no PBNs or spammy sites), and transparency in the methods used. Include clauses that prevent the agency from using black-hat practices, which can lead to penalties from search engines.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Request Regular Progress Reports:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Ensure the agency provides regular updates on the campaign's progress, including metrics like link placements, site authority, and traffic data. Look for agencies that are transparent about link sources and can share reports from tools like Ahrefs or Moz. These reports give you control and visibility, helping you verify that the agency is delivering high-quality, compliant results.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Avoid Upfront Payments for Unproven Agencies:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Some agencies may request a large upfront payment, which can be risky, especially if you haven't verified their track record. If you're working with a new agency, opt for pay-per-performance models or milestone-based payments. This structure minimizes financial risk by allowing you to pay as results are delivered.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Conduct a Background Check on the Agency's Practices:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Research the agency's reputation by checking reviews on sites like Clutch or LinkedIn and reaching out to past clients. Verify that their practices align with white-hat SEO standards. Ask the agency about their link-building process and vet their methods carefully to ensure ethical practices.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Establish a Pre-Approval Process for Link Placements:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Set up a system to review and approve links before they go live. This allows you to assess each site's quality and relevance, ensuring that it aligns with your brand standards. Pre-approval can also prevent placements on low-authority or irrelevant sites that could dilute the impact of your link-building efforts.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Specify Terms Around Hidden Fees and Additional Charges:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Some agencies may introduce hidden costs for outreach, expedited services, or content creation. Make sure to clarify all potential charges in the contract. Request a detailed quote upfront that includes all anticipated costs to avoid unexpected expenses.</li> </ul> <li style="color: yellow;"><strong style="color: yellow;">Use Metrics to Track Link Quality and Impact:</strong></li> <ul style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li>Measure the quality of each link using metrics like Domain Authority, Page Authority, and relevance to your industry. Additionally, monitor the overall impact on your site's traffic and rankings. Tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console can help track the effectiveness of each backlink over time, ensuring you get value from your investment.</li> </ul> </ol> <p>By following these steps, you'll be able to minimize risks associated with outsourced link building and secure a partnership that aligns with your long-term SEO strategy. Managing these risks proactively helps protect your website's integrity while maximizing the benefits of your link-building efforts.</p> <h3>Case Study: Boosting LeadGenApp's Online Visibility and Conversions</h3> <p>LeadGenApp, a company struggling with low domain rating, limited search impressions, and minimal search clicks, reached out for a targeted digital marketing solution to enhance its lead generation efforts. These challenges prevented them from attracting the necessary web traffic to convert potential customers.</p> <p>After a thorough analysis, a comprehensive link-building strategy was implemented.

Here are key scenarios where delegating this task to experts may deliver the most impact:</p> <ol style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Limited In-House Resources</h5></li> <p>For many businesses, building a dedicated in-house SEO or link-building team is costly and time-consuming. Smaller companies or startups often lack the budget for specialized SEO roles, not to mention the tools and expertise needed to manage an effective link-building strategy. By outsourcing to an experienced agency, companies can access skilled professionals and sophisticated tools without the heavy investment, enabling them to improve SEO performance while keeping costs manageable.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Scaling Link-Building Efforts</h5></li> <p>As companies grow, the need to scale link-building efforts becomes essential to maintain competitive SEO rankings. However, scaling link-building initiatives in-house can overwhelm existing teams and lead to diminished quality or unsustainable workloads. Outsourcing allows businesses to quickly adjust the volume and intensity of link-building campaigns based on market demands or strategic goals. External agencies are equipped with networks and resources to handle large-scale campaigns, ensuring that the quality of links remains high even as quantity increases.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Specialized Industry Requirements</h5></li> <p>Certain industries, such as finance, healthcare, and tech, require a nuanced approach to link building due to specific regulations, content sensitivities, and target audiences. Outsourcing to a team with experience in a particular industry can provide valuable insights, as these agencies often have relationships with high-authority websites and publications relevant to niche markets. This expertise not only saves time but also helps businesses avoid potential compliance pitfalls or reputational risks.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Time-Sensitive SEO Goals</h5></li> <p>Businesses may have seasonal marketing campaigns or product launches where swift SEO gains are needed to capture audience attention. Outsourced link-building teams can help accelerate results through established networks, efficient processes, and rapid deployment. This ability to fast-track link-building efforts is often critical for achieving timely visibility boosts during high-impact periods, like holiday sales or product rollouts.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Recovery from SEO Penalties</h5></li> <p>Recovering from a penalty due to low-quality or unnatural links can be challenging for companies without extensive SEO expertise. Many agencies offer specialized services in link detox and disavowal, removing harmful links and rebuilding a strong backlink profile. For businesses facing penalties, outsourcing to an agency with a solid track record in recovery can be a time-effective way to restore their online credibility and regain lost traffic.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Focus on Core Business Activities</h5></li> <p>Managing link building can be a demanding task, requiring constant monitoring, outreach, and adjustment. By outsourcing these tasks, companies free up internal resources, allowing them to focus on core activities like product development, customer service, and strategic marketing initiatives. For many organizations, this reallocation of resources results in improved overall productivity while ensuring that SEO remains in expert hands.</p> </ol> <h3>Transparent Vetting Tips for Selecting the Right Link-Building Agency</h3> <p>Choosing a trustworthy link-building agency is essential to avoid pitfalls such as poor-quality links, hidden fees, or unethical practices. Here are some tips to evaluate potential partners and ensure they meet transparency and quality standards:</p> <ol style="margin-left: 20px;"> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Request Full Disclosure of Methods and Strategies</h5></li> <p>A reputable agency should openly discuss their link-building techniques, including how they find link opportunities, their outreach process, and the types of links they prioritize (e.g., editorial vs. forum links). Ask them to describe their link-building strategies in detail and look for agencies that align with white-hat practices, as these are safer and sustainable for long-term SEO.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Check for Transparent Pricing and Payment Terms</h5></li> <p>Ensure the agency provides a clear breakdown of costs. Some agencies may have hidden fees for outreach, content creation, or expedited services, so it's essential to request a full quote that outlines what is included in each package. Additionally, some agencies offer performance-based billing or only require payment once links are placed, which can indicate a commitment to results.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Ask to See Their Quality Control Processes</h5></li> <p>Inquire about how the agency assesses the quality of potential links before placement. Reputable agencies should have strict quality metrics, like avoiding links on spammy sites or sites with low authority. Ask if they perform due diligence on each site, such as checking domain authority, site traffic, and relevance to your industry, which can help you avoid low-value backlinks that could harm your SEO.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Request Pre-approval on Link Placements</h5></li> <p>Some agencies offer the option to pre-approve link placements, allowing you to review and approve sites before links go live. This transparency ensures that you have control over where your brand appears and that the links align with your brand's standards. If an agency is hesitant to offer pre-approval, it may indicate a lack of flexibility or a high volume of low-quality placements.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Look for Disclosure of Reporting and Metrics</h5></li> <p>Reliable agencies provide regular reports on campaign progress and key metrics, such as the number of links acquired, referring domains, and traffic generated. Ask about the reporting frequency and whether they'll share data from SEO tools like Ahrefs or Moz. Regular reporting allows you to track the quality and impact of your link-building campaign over time.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Examine Their Own Backlink Profile and Case Studies</h5></li> <p>Reviewing the agency's backlink profile can provide insight into their standards. Use tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush to check their own link quality and the types of sites that link to them. Additionally, ask for case studies or testimonials from clients in your industry to verify that the agency has a history of achieving results in relevant niches.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Seek References or Client Testimonials</h5></li> <p>Many reputable agencies have reviews on sites like Clutch or G2. You can also ask for direct references or reach out to past clients on LinkedIn to inquire about their experience. This feedback can offer firsthand insight into the agency's work quality, reliability, and adherence to ethical standards.</p> <li style="color: yellow;"><h5>Look Out for Red Flags in Promises and Guarantees</h5></li> <p>Be cautious of agencies that guarantee rapid results, specific ranking outcomes, or low prices for high-volume links. These claims can often signal shortcuts, such as the use of Private Blog Networks (PBNs) or other black-hat techniques that can harm your SEO in the long run. Quality link building is a gradual process, so look for agencies that set realistic expectations.</p> </ol> <h3>Conclusion</h3> <p> Outsourcing link building can be a strategic move to enhance your SEO efforts, save time, and leverage professional expertise. By preparing your website, understanding the process, defining clear objectives and budgets, and selecting the right partner you can create an effective and sustainable link-building campaign. Additionally, by being aware of common pitfalls such as black hat techniques, over-promising services, and hidden fees you can make informed decisions that protect your website's integrity and ensure long-term success. With careful planning and execution, outsourcing link building can significantly boost your online presence and drive organic traffic to your website. </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-xl-4 col-lg-6 col-md-12"> <div class="sidebar__content__box"> <div class="single__sidebar__box"> <div class="single__sidebar__search__box"> <div class="sidebar__search__box p_relative"> <form class="search__form"> <input placeholder="Keyword Search" type="text" /> <button type="submit"><i class="icon-18"></i></button> </form> </div> </div> </div> <div class="single__sidebar__box"> <div class="title"> <h3>Latest posts</h3> </div> <div class="sidebar__blog__post"> <ul class="blog__post"> <li> <div class="inner"> <div class="img__box"> <img src="../assets/images/news/sidebar-1.jpg" alt="Awesome Image" /> </div> <div class="title__box"> <div class="date"> <i class="icon-15"></i>26 July 2023 </div> <h4> <a href="#">4 Cybersecurity Takeaways from China's</a> </h4> </div> </div> </li> <li> <div class="inner"> <div class="img__box"> <img src="../assets/images/news/sidebar-2.jpg" alt="Awesome Image" /> </div> <div class="title__box"> <div class="date"> <i class="icon-15"></i>26 July 2023 </div> <h4> <a href="#">4 Cybersecurity Takeaways from China's</a> </h4> </div> </div> </li> <li> <div class="inner"> <div class="img__box"> <img src="../assets/images/news/sidebar-3.jpg" alt="Awesome Image" /> </div> <div class="title__box"> <div class="date"> <i class="icon-15"></i>26 July 2023 </div> <h4> <a href="#">4 Cybersecurity Takeaways from China's</a> </h4> </div> </div> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="single__sidebar__box"> <div class="title"> <h3>Categories</h3> </div> <div class="sidebar-categories"> <ul class="sidebar-categories-box"> <li> <a href="#"><i class="icon-17"></i> Internet Of Things</a> </li> <li> <a href="#"><i class="icon-17"></i> Artificial Intelligence</a> </li> <li> <a href="#"><i class="icon-17"></i>Machine Learning</a> </li> <li> <a href="#"><i class="icon-17"></i>Deep Learning</a> </li> <li> <a href="#"><i class="icon-17"></i>Neural Networks</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="single__sidebar__box"> <div class="title"> <h3>All Blogs</h3> </div> <div class="sidebar-categories" style="overflow-y: scroll;max-height: 500px;"> <ul id="blogs-list" class="sidebar-categories-box"> </ul> </div> <div id="pageloader" class="text-center" > <div id="loader" class="spinner-border" role="status"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="main__footer"> <div class="footer-top"> <div class="auto-container"> <div class="top-inner"> <div class="left__top"> <h3>Looking For best It business solution</h3> </div> <div class="right__top"> <div class="btn-box"> <a href="/contact-us" class="theme-btn theme-btn-one"><i class="icon-02"></i> contact-us Us</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer__one"> <div class="footer-widget-section"> <div class="auto-container"> <div class="row clearfix"> <div class="col-lg-3 col-md-6 col-sm-12 footer-column"> <div class="footer-widget footer-logo-widget wow fadeInUp animated" data-wow-delay="00ms" data-wow-duration="1500ms"> <figure class="footer-logo logo-foot"> <a href="/"><img src="../assets/images/redstaglabs.svg" alt="logo iamge" /></a> </figure> <div class="text"> <p> <strong>RED STAG LABS </strong> is a well-established software development company headquartered in Srinagar, Kashmir.
