Why Link Building matters for your growth

Links remain the strongest correlated ranking signal in Google's algorithm. A handful of editorial links on real publishers does more than 100 directory submissions — and won't get you penalised when the next algorithm update hits.

01Are paid links safe?

No — paid links violate Google's guidelines and risk manual penalties. Our links are earned through digital PR, research and outreach. The link is free; the work isn't.

02What's the DR of your typical placement?

Most placements land on sites with DR 40–80. We prioritise topical relevance and editorial credibility over DR alone — a DR 55 on-topic placement outperforms a DR 90 generic one.

03How many links per month?

4–10 high-quality placements per month is typical. Volume scales with budget and digital PR cycle length — we never inflate counts with low-quality directories.

04Can you recover from a link penalty?

Yes — full backlink audit, disavow file preparation, manual removal outreach and reconsideration request management.

05What's included in your Link Building engagement?

Discovery, strategy, full execution, conversion tracking, creative/copy where applicable, weekly stand-ups and a live performance dashboard.

06Will I get a dedicated Link Building specialist?

Yes — a senior link building specialist owns your account, with a strategist and account director backing them up. No junior handoffs.

07What tools do you use for Link Building?

Best-in-class for the channel: GA4, Looker Studio, sGTM, plus category-leading specialist tools chosen per account.

08Does Link Building work for small or local businesses?

Absolutely — we right-size the program to budget and scope. Many of our best link building engagements are with local and SMB clients.
