BBack Car Care

BBack Car Care is a family-owned independent auto repair center in Doylestown, PA, dedicated to helping its customers love their cars again. The company was founded by Bob Back in 1984 and has continually expanded its services to include factory scheduled maintenance, engine diagnostics, oil changes, tire sales & installation, brake repair, PA safety and emissions car inspections, and more. BBack’s commitment to providing warm, friendly customer service and high-quality mechanical work has helped them establish a loyal customer base and a reputation as a trusted car care provider in Doylestown and Bucks County.

We knew BBack Car Care owners Kevin & Bobbie Hicks, and their staff, even before we started working with them as their marketing agency. In fact, our President & CEO, Greg Cawood, was a long-time BBack customer. So, when they approached us in March 2022 to attract more local customers, we eagerly accepted the chance to showcase this genuinely friendly and hard-working team using a locally-focused digital marketing strategy emphasizing SEO best practices to promote their business.

These growth areas included auto repair, car maintenance, oil changes, wheel alignment, PA car inspections, and brake repair.

Strategic Link Building

Strategic link building is an effective tactic we used to help BBack improve its domain authority and drive new and returning customers to its website. Our process involves acquiring high-quality links to BBack’s website through various methods, such as local listings, content marketing, and other effective link-building techniques. Our savvy team utilizes the latest tools and advanced expertise to achieve these results.

Additionally, we reviewed the language used throughout the website to ensure it aligned with BBack’s desired tone of warmth and friendliness.
