DR 13 to 34 for an engineering-intelligence platform

The challenge

Entelligence sells to engineering leaders, a small and senior audience that vets tools through peers and demos more than through search. The domain still needed enough authority to surface when those leaders do look up code-review and production-reliability tooling, and it was starting from a low base.

What we did

We hand-submitted it to the AI and developer-tool directories where engineering buyers actually compare products, each listing written for that directory's category and rules rather than blasted from one generic list.

The result

Domain Rating climbed from 13 to 34, backed by 57 referring domains pointing at the site. This study leads with Domain Rating and referring domains because those are the figures we can verify directly from public link data; we have deliberately not published a backlink-volume or traffic number for it that we could not stand behind.
