Every link type. One quality bar.

Guest posts, listicle inserts, link insertions: the three ways we earn links in our link building services. The right type depends on your situation. The quality process never changes: you pre-approve every domain, every site clears a verified-traffic floor, and every link is watched daily.

The link types

Three ways to earn a link. Here's when each one wins.

No agency jargon: these are the industry-standard names, what each one actually is, and the bar a site has to clear before we'll pitch it for you.

01

Guest posts

A guest post is a full article written for a publication your buyers already read, with your link placed in context. The editor gets a genuinely useful piece; you get an editorial link and a brand presence on a site that matters in your niche.

The right call when
You want authority in a niche where the right article doesn't exist yet, including trade publications that never sell placements and only run work worth printing.
The quality bar
5,000+ verified monthly organic visits minimum, never DR alone. Traffic is geo-checked against the markets you sell in, and a real editor accepts or rejects the draft.
How we build it
  • Written to the publication's own editorial bar, not a house template we reuse.
  • Fact-checked against the live web before the draft ships: no AI slop, no fabricated citations.
  • Built to pass a real editor's review, not to slip past it.
02

Listicle inserts

A listicle insert is your product added to a "best tools" or comparison list that already earns buyer traffic. Readers on those pages are actively shortlisting: a placement there works like a referral, not just a ranking signal.

The right call when
You sell software or products people compare before buying. One of our live placements: a SaaS product-review listicle with 81,600 verified monthly visits.
The quality bar
The list itself must earn verified organic traffic for buying-intent queries, your product must genuinely fit the category, and the editor controls the final wording.
How we build it
  • We target "best X" roundups that pull real buying-intent traffic. Fake directories and pay-to-play comparison platforms are rejected.
  • You are added only where you genuinely fit the list, as an editorial addition, not a bought ad slot.
03

Link insertions

A link insertion is a link added to an already-published article where your page fills a genuine gap. No new content required: the article, its traffic, and its history are all in place before your link arrives.

The highest-leverage version: insertions on pages that already rank for your keywords. Google has already judged that page a credible answer for your topic, so your link inherits that standing on day one instead of waiting months for a new article to earn its place. And because the people landing there searched your keywords, the link sends real clicks, not just authority.
The right call when
You want movement fast, or a page that outranks you for your own keywords could be sending you its readers instead.
The quality bar
The host article must earn organic traffic for relevant queries right now (we check what it ranks for today, not what it once was) and the site's editor accepts the edit in context.
How we build it
  • Placed only where a genuine content gap already exists, never forced into a sentence that does not need it.
  • The anchor sentence has to exist on the page already. We do not invent placements to justify a link.

The standard behind every link

  • Fresh prospecting for every campaign. We search out the right publications for you and refuse recycled "sites that accept guest posts" lists.
  • Spam, PBN and doorway sites are filtered out before they reach you. Your competitors are never pitched, and no two clients get the same domain.
  • Every pitch is written for one editor, grounded in their recent work: no templates, no mail-merge, no invented flattery or credentials.
  • Anchor text stays varied and natural (branded, partial, descriptive), never exact-match spam.

The quality process

Whatever the type, the process is the same.

Every placement, all three types, passes through the same four controls before, during, and after it goes live.

01

You pre-approve every domain

Before a single pitch goes out, you see the full target list (prospected fresh for you, never pulled from an inventory). Veto anything, no questions asked.

02

Verified traffic, never DR alone

Every site must show real organic traffic from the countries you sell in. 85.3% of guest-post-marketplace sites rate low quality (source: Xamsor marketplace-quality rating). The floor exists to keep them out.

03

Daily link monitoring

Every live link is checked every day. If a page changes or a link drops, we know before you do, and act on it.

04

12-month free replacement

Any link that drops within 12 months is replaced at no charge. Invoked twice to date, honored both times.

Live placements
