How Digital PR Took Curednation from DR 1 to 27 in Just 2 Months
Curednation is a US addiction-treatment provider specializing in opioid recovery, matching qualified providers with patients for customized at-home recovery plans.
The Challenge
When Curednation came to us, their Domain Rating was 1 and organic traffic was just 400 visitors/month (Ahrefs). They needed an affordable way to build media exposure and establish founder Trent Carter (Nurse Practitioner) as a thought leader.
Thought leadership matters: 65% of buyers say it significantly changed their perception of a company for the better (Edelman).
The Approach
A pay-for-performance campaign focused on earning high-authority, natural backlinks through personalized journalist pitches.
Connectively (HARO)
Daily monitoring and rapid, personalized responses to relevant journalist queries on Help a Reporter Out.

Expanded reach across additional reactive-PR platforms to maximize qualified opportunities matching Curednation's expertise.
Founder Positioning
Positioned Trent Carter as a credible clinical voice on addiction and recovery — the kind of expert journalists return to.
The Results
The Domain Rating climbed from 1 to 27 in under two months — a 2,600% increase on a logarithmic scale where 42% of companies take 3+ months to see any noticeable DA movement.
From 400 to 3,236 monthly organic visitors, driven entirely by earned, high-authority placements.
A 2,600% increase in under two months — extraordinary on DR's logarithmic scale.
Earned from major publications including Healthline (DR 92), The Mirror (DR 90), and MSN (DR 92).
