One relevant link from a page that ranks beats fifty directory entries, so we sell earned authority, not link counts, and we say so in the deliverable. No PBNs, no paid placements, no farms. We decline that work even when a client asks, because a torched domain is far more expensive than a slow month.
Your current profile: referring domains, authority distribution, anchor mix and any toxic candidates worth disavowing, so growth is measured from a real starting point.
Competitor gaps first, then the best-of roundups and listicles you genuinely belong in, then the handful of directories a human would actually be crawled and found through.
Each prospect scored on topical relevance, traffic evidence, outbound-link sanity and contact findability. Only A and B grade targets get outreach; the rest are dropped.
Every email references something real from the target's page, carries one clear ask, and sounds like a person. Volume is capped at what genuine personalization allows.
Every prospect, send, response and placement is logged, and each link is confirmed live and dofollow before it counts. The referring-domain trend is charted month over month.
It is for sites with something worth linking to and target pages to strengthen, usually the priorities from a Keyword Strategy. The published evidence on whether links move visibility inside AI answers is thinner and stranger than the pitch usually admits, and we set out what the two large studies actually found before you spend anything here. Authority earned this way compounds and does not evaporate in an update.
It is not for sites chasing volume or a fast fix. Earned links take months, and anyone promising twenty a month is buying them somewhere you do not want your domain to appear.
Your backlink profile is mapped and the first prospect streams are built and approved.
Targets found and scored, only the strongest advanced to outreach.
Personalized emails drafted and sent, by your identity or ours as agreed.
Verified placements, pipeline status, the trend chart, and next month's list for approval.
| Alternative | Typical cost | What you actually get |
|---|---|---|
| Buying links or guest-post farms | $50 to $500/link | Cheap links that risk a penalty and a torched domain |
| Fiverr outreach gigs | $100 to $300/mo | Template blasts that get ignored, or worse, get you flagged |
| DIY outreach | Your time | The 5 to 10 hours a week you do not have, done inconsistently |
Quality targets vary by niche; typical months land 2 to 5 earned placements. Anyone promising 20 is buying them somewhere you do not want to be.
Never. No PBNs, no paid placements, no link farms. We decline that work even when asked.
Links compound over months, not days. Pair with Rank Tracking and watch the trend.
Your identity or ours, your call at scoping. Every email references something real from the target's page, which is what separates this from a volume package.
About 5 percent on good targets, and we say so upfront. Anyone claiming much higher is emailing junk targets.
We flag it and propose a linkable asset, briefed into SEO Content, because outreach without an asset is a hard sell.
Growth runs more prospect volume for $1,295 a month, Scale runs the most for $2,495, same qualification bar. Bigger than that, tell us the number and we scope a custom plan.
