Our Editorial Link Building Process: How It Works

1. Prospecting

Our process begins with prospecting for target sites that have the potential for earning high-quality backlinks. In order to find relevant target sites, we use competitor analysis and search engine operators.

2. Vetting

We use rigorous vetting criteria to ensure that we’re earning links from websites whose metrics and quality meet our high standards. We particularly focus on the site’s organic traffic, relevance, domain authority, and TrustFlow.

3. Outreach

After we zero in on our list of vetted websites, we reach out to explore opportunities to earn backlinks. We tailor our link acquisition strategy to our client’s needs and goals.

4. Backlinks

We’re able to earn backlinks to your website by providing an incredible value proposition to our prospects. Our link building experts will share a valuable resource from your website, contribute content, or add value in other ways.

Backlink Packages for Small & Big Businesses

Link building is one of Google’s primary ranking factors. It’s a necessary but labor-intensive part of any SEO strategy.

Through years of experience, Sure Oak has built long-term relationships and developed the right strategies to gain the organic links your site needs to rank.

Through due diligence and multiple strategy sessions, we’ll learn the ins and outs of your business and how we can best drive your business goals.

  • The number of links you need
  • The link building packages prices

7 Link Building Services That Actually Work

Backlinks validate your site authority and ultimately boost organic traffic.

Link building can be complex. In fact, most website owners and SEO practitioners struggle to justify spending copious amounts of time and resources on this service.

I’ve made awful mistakes in this endeavor but you don’t have to follow a similar path.

Need high quality backlinks… but you’re too busy to build them yourself?

If so, you’re in the right place.

Because in today’s post, I will show you 7 link building services that work in 2024 .

Link building services save you time to focus on other responsibilities by integrating tactics that bring quality backlinks to your domain.

Note

Your link building strategy should always focus on quality not quantity. In fact, toxic backlinks hurt your SEO rather than boosting your domain authority.

That’s why we start by showing you some of the link building services you should not try unless you wish to jeopardize rankings and in some instances, get Google penalties which can be difficult to recover from.

Let’s jump right in…

First, 5 Link Building Services To Avoid At All Costs

Over the years I’ve tested 25+ different SEO service providers.

And most of them let me down.

(That’s why I decided to learn SEO on my own. But that’s another story. 🙂 )

As it turns out, there are a handful of link building services that simply do NOT work.

So before I share my favorites, let me quickly show you what to avoid.

Anything on Fiverr/Cheap Options

When it comes to SEO, Fiverr is a HUGE waste of money.

(As the old saying goes: “you get what you pay for”.)

And I should know.

I’ve bought 855 Fiverr gigs:

Fiverr – Completed orders

Not all these gigs were for SEO stuff. But most of them were.

In fact, looking back, most of the gigs I bought looked like this:

Fiverr link building gig

Some of these gigs worked OK back in the day.

But in 2024? They’re completely useless.

Moving right along…

Private Blog Networks (PBNs)

When I first got started with SEO, I loved private blog networks.

I even built my own PBN… and bought links from other people’s PBNs.

PBN seller

Seroundtable – Google algorithm update targets PBN

Not only does the algorithm now filter out most PBN backlinks…

…but Google also manually deindexes any network that gets on their radar screen.

(This means all of those links you just bought are now completely worthless.)

Paid Guest Posts

There’s a place for guest posting in a white hat SEO campaign.

(More on that later.)

But that doesn’t include paid guest post links.

First, sites that require payment for guest post placements are usually shady.

Do you think a legit site (like TechCrunch or Mashable) would ask you to pay 50 bucks to publish your post?

Second, paid links go against Google’s Webmaster Guidelines when it comes to link building.

Google Search Central – Link schemes

This means that paying for guest post “placements” or “editorial reviews” can get your site penalized.

This leads us to…

“Push Button” Backlinks

  • Blog comments
  • Article directories
  • Web 2.0 sites
  • Directories

Basically: if you can buy 100+ backlinks with the push of a button, you’re buying spammy links.

(Spammy links that can do more harm than good.)

That’s why I recommend steering clear of most “link building packages”.

Last up, we have…

Press Releases

Press releases used to work GREAT for link building.

But those days are long gone.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t stop people offering “press release distribution” as some sort of SEO service:

Melbourne SEO services – Press release service

Today, most links in press releases are nofollowed:

Globe News Wire – News release – Nofollow link

Plus, Google has even come out and said that they “ignore” links in press releases:

Seroundtable – Google ignores press release links

Negative SEO links

Negative SEO refers to all activities aimed at decreasing your competitor’s organic traffic and site rankings on search engines. These activities include hacking, spamming the site with toxic backlinks, and content scraping.

While engaging in such activities is purely diabolical, site owners are encouraged to comply with Google’s webmaster guidelines to minimize the impact of any SEO attacks.

Additionally, habitually conduct a backlink audit of your site to weed out any toxic backlinks. It’s hard to point out negative SEO links if unnatural and spammy links exist.

With that out of the way, it’s time for the good stuff:

The 7 best link building services for 2024.

1. Featured

Featured is a platform that connects subject-matter experts with journalists and publishers to create quality, ready-to-publish Q&A content.

And if you become a source for their story, you can get a backlink to your site.

First, register as a source on the Featured website:

When you do, you get access to a dashboard with “Questions”.

A question is a quote, statistic, strategy or case study that the journalist needs to finish their story.

All you need to do is reply to their query with something useable…

Brian – HARO reply

…and you have a good chance of getting featured.

Plans range from free to $199/month.

If you want to reply to the occasional query, go with the free plan.

But if you’re serious about getting placements, I recommend testing one of their paid plans.

Paid plans come with cool features… like early access to unlimited answers, editorial support, and domain rating filters.

Entrepreneur – Backlinko mention

  • You can get AMAZING links from popular news sites and blogs. For example, I got this link from Entrepreneur (Domain Authority 92) from a HARO query:
  • Compared to most other link building services, Featured is dirt cheap (or even free).
  • The vast majority of links that you get are from legit sites. So you don’t need to worry about black hat links or Google penalties.
  • You can get started FAST (literally today).

Forbes homepage backlink

  • Replying to Featured queries is a GRIND. If you want a chance to get featured on a big site, you need to stay on top of queries and reply right away.
  • No “set it and forget it” option. You or someone from your team needs to do all the legwork.
  • Most of the links you get from Featured will point to your homepage, like this:Which means this isn’t a great option for building links to internal pages (like services pages and blog posts).

2. Digital PR Agency

An agency focused on getting your company mentioned in the press.

PR agencies usually work with you to create a newsworthy story that they can pitch to media outlets. The story can be your product (if it’s interesting enough) or something that you published on your site (like an industry study).

Most PR agencies work with a monthly retainer model.

PR agencies that work with small businesses tend to charge between $2k-$15k/month.

That said, there are PR pros that sell one-off packages, like press kits:

Press kit PR package

  • You can get some VERY high-quality backlinks. A successful PR campaign can land you links from household name sites, like Forbes and Fast Company.
  • They do all of the grunt work. Pitching journalists is no fun. Most agencies get their hands dirty so you don’t have to.
  • You tap into an existing network. Most PR firms have contacts at big sites that they can leverage for coverage.

Backlinko mention in article

  • Most PR firms don’t focus on links. So you might get a “mention” or “placement” on a big site… only to find that they didn’t link to you in the story:
  • PR comes with no guarantees. You might be the toast of the town… or find yourself with a single link from a second-tier site.
  • Public relations is an EXPENSIVE process. PR firms usually charge 2-3x more than SEO agencies.

A more affordable option?

You can master this Digital PR approach after taking this free course that explains the strategy in detail.

3. Content Marketing Agencies

An agency that does one thing:

Produces content for your company blog.

Content marketing agencies work one of two ways:

#1: Pay the agency a monthly fee… and they write a set number of articles per month.

This content can range from a handful of 500-word blog posts to a single piece of “WOW” content (like a 4,000-word definitive guide).

#2: Pay a set fee for a piece of content.

(For example, $2k for a single long-form blog post.)

But most content marketing agencies charge at least $1k/month. Depending on scope, this figure can go all the way up to $20k+ per month.

Fixture Media – Coverage program

That said, you definitely get what you pay for. If your budget is $500 for 5 blog posts, don’t expect anything special.

That’s why I recommend working with agencies that focus on quality over quantity . That way, you can get the most out of your monthly investment.

Backlink Checker – Backlinko

  • Building links with content marketing can work REALLY well. In fact, most of the links that I’ve built to this blog have come directly from publishing great content.
  • This is as white hat as it gets. There’s no need to worry about shady stuff that could get your site penalized in the long-term.
  • You get lots of “bonus” benefits from publishing awesome content… like traffic from social media and brand awareness.
  • Content marketing services ≠ SEO services. So if you need someone to do keyword research or on-page SEO, you’re out of luck.
  • Some content marketing agencies deliver mediocre “me too” content. If you want your content to stand out and get links, it needs to be AMAZING. Despite that, many content marketing agencies still offer worthless “10 blog posts per month” packages.
  • Your fee may or may not include content promotion. If not, you’ll need to get the word out yourself.

4. Blogger Outreach Services

An individual or agency that promotes your content using manual link building and blogger outreach.

The agency does the dirty work of identifying bloggers to reach out to, finding their email addresses, contacting them, and following up.

(Some agencies also let you tap into their existing Rolodex of bloggers and editors.)

Most outreach-focused link building agencies charge a flat fee for every link that they build.

You can expect to pay around $200 for a single quality link.

Blogger outreach fees

That said, there are a handful of link builders that charge a monthly retainer or hourly fee.

  • If you ONLY want backlinks, this is probably the service for you.
  • Email outreach is a super white-hat approach to link building (assuming that you don’t spam people).
  • You tend to get quality, white-hat links. Google wants to see contextual links on related websites. And blogger outreach is one of the best ways to get these solid gold links.
  • You only pay for results. Sure, paying 200 bucks for a link may seem expensive. But at least you got SOMETHING for your effort. Most SEO companies and content agencies offer no such guarantee.
  • Most link building companies (like FatJoe) don’t offer comprehensive SEO services. So if you need full-scale SEO help, this isn’t a great option for you.
  • Shady providers add your link to one of their PBN websites and pass it off as “outreach”. Closely inspect your links to make sure they come from REAL websites.
  • You need to publish your own content. Bloggers aren’t going to link to crappy content (why would they?). This means you’ll need some high-quality content on your site BEFORE you start with outreach.

5. SEO Agency

A full-scale agency that handles all of your SEO needs… including link building.

You hire the agency and they optimize your site for search engines. This usually includes some sort of link building component.

All over the map.

You can find discount SEO agencies out there for $200/month.

$200/month agency

Or you can go with an agency that works with Fortune 500 companies… and pay $20-$50k/month.

That said, most SEO agencies charge anywhere from $500 to $5k/month.

  • They take care of everything . No need to create content. Or find keywords. Just write your check, give them your URL, and you’re done.
  • Agencies do their work with your SEO goals in mind. For example, they’ll produce a piece of content design to get links… AND make sure that it’s optimized around your target keyword.
  • Most SEO agencies are useless (sad but true). They do some basic optimization… then charge you every month for mediocre content and links.
  • They’re not focused on links. Yup, most agencies build links. But they also do everything else required to rank in Google (mobile optimization, content, etc.). Which means: only a small % of your budget goes towards link building.

6. Guest Posting Services

You hire an agency to write and publish guest posts on your behalf.

(With a link back to your site.)

Guest post services take care of the MANY steps involved in guest posting: finding sites that accept guest posts, making a pitch, talking to editors, writing the post… and ultimately getting the post published.

It’s a time-consuming process.

Most guest post services charge a flat fee per guest post, usually between $100 and $500 (depending on the Domain Authority of the site). For example, The Hoth charges $200 for a single DA 30 link:

The Hoth – Guest post link

Guest post traffic

  • You get legit links (kind of). Google doesn’t want you to build “large-scale” links from guest posts. However, in my experience, publishing a few guest posts on relevant sites is totally safe and can help give you a rankings boost.
  • A guest post on a big site in your niche can send you LOTS of referral traffic. For example, look at this spike in my site’s traffic after I published a guest post on the Buffer blog:
  • Pay per link model. Just like with outreach services, you only pay when you get a guest post published.
  • Fake guest posts are a real problem. Some guest blogging services write a crappy guest post and publish it on a site in their PBN.
  • As I mentioned, Google doesn’t want you to see “large-scale” guest posting. So this approach isn’t scalable. If more than 5-10% of your link profile is made up of guest post links, you’re at risk of a penalty.

7. Infographic Design Company

A company that creates infographics or other forms of visual content.

(With the goal of getting backlinks.)

Most infographic agencies take care of the entire process: coming up with a topic, finding data and designing the infographic.

Infographic agency services

But you can also hire a graphic designer to turn your content into an infographic.

For a full-service infographic service, you’re looking at $2k-$4k.

If you just want your infographic designed, that’s around $1k-$2k.

  • Infographics don’t work as well as they used to… but they’re still a GREAT way to build backlinks.
  • No monthly retainer or ongoing commitment. In most cases, you pay per infographic.
  • It’s very hands off. You don’t need to be super-involved in the process.
  • Most infographic services don’t include promotion. So it’s on you to get the word out.
  • Infographics are very hit or miss. Some go viral. Others fall completely flat. Which means you may need to publish 2-3 infographics before your first big hit.

So those are the 7 link building services that I recommend.

As you saw, there are pros and cons to each.

These are definitely your best options.

Now I’d like to hear what you have to say:

What’s your experience been with outsourcing link building?

Good? Bad? Somewhere in between?

Either way, let me know by leaving a comment below right now.

Loading.

High-quality links are one of the main factors for improving search visibility and rankings.

Consequentially, there are 100s of “link building services” and companies that offer services to help you acquire them.

Successful link-building efforts require more than combining time, energy, and consistency. They require the right network, too.

Think about the dozen emails you get per week asking you to link back to them. You hit delete, right?

The power of a network for link building helps you bypass traditional mass email with 0.1% conversion rates.

So, how do you find the right link building service company with the right connections, approach, and track-record?

This article will take you through it step by step.

What is a good link-building service?

A link-building service is an SEO company that helps you secure links from other relevant websites in your niche. But finding the right fit can be a challenge. A Google search supplies you with plenty of results, but how do you judge their quality?

A screenshot of a Google search for the link building service query

Here’s the thing — there are tons of ways to outsource your link building, from massive agencies to solo freelancers or even marketplaces.

Link-building services can vary in quality and approach, too.

Either way, there are some basic things you can expect from a solid backlink company:

  1. First, they should audit your site and assess your current link profile. This will show them exactly how to boost your backlink profile and improve your overall SEO. If you’re one of the 95% of websites with no backlinks, prepare for a long SEO journey.
  2. Next, they’ll analyze your marketing and business goals to create a personalized link-building strategy that drives results. This is crucial because SEO isn’t a one-size-fits-all industry.
  3. They should also be open and transparent about their SEO tactics. Whether they do blogger outreach, sponsored posting, or forum commenting, you should know what’s on the menu.
  4. Another crucial aspect of a great partnership with a link-building service is reporting. You have to get regular, comprehensive reports of all the activities and results. SEO relies on numbers, strategies, and documentation, and you should stay informed every step of the way.
  5. Last but not least, as a customer, you have to ensure you get good service support. Look for round-the-clock assistance across different time zones.

These five expectations are more than reasonable for any client using a link-building service. Will this guarantee excellent results for you? Unfortunately, no. But it’s definitely a good checklist to weed out providers that can’t get you quality high-authority links.

Red flags to watch out for when using a link-building service

The last thing anyone wants is to waste their time and money on a bunch of spammy links. But how can you tell the difference between credible SEO companies and shady link-building agencies? There are a couple of things you can check:

  • Get your service to provide verifiable case studies (preferably in your niche).
  • Ask direct questions about their methods of getting you backlinks through link-building.
  • If you want to be in control of your backlink process, ask for a list of their websites for link placements. This way, you can ensure that those pages have high DA/DR, low spam scores, and decent traffic.
  • Ensure your provider understands your business goals and creates a personalized link-building approach.
  • If they offer a guest-posting service with content included, verify that you are getting a unique piece of content. It can’t be AI-generated or plagiarized.
  • Check the reviews of your backlink service to confirm that they don’t use black-hat link-building tactics. This can help you avoid dealing with shady private blog networks (PBNs), which can result in toxic backlinks.

How to choose the best link-building service for your needs?

Let’s face it — even if you have the best link-building tools at your disposal, link-building is still challenging. So, most of us will outsource all or at least some of it sooner or later. But how do you ensure the link-building service you choose is the real deal? Here are six go-to rules:

  1. Do your research. This might seem like an obvious suggestion. But here’s a trick — don’t just look at their prices, services, and reviews. Instead, ensure the SEO company you choose has worked within your industry before, and check their database of websites for link placements. Additionally, go to Reddit and look for some unbiased opinions.
  2. Book intro calls to get a taste. After you’ve already shortlisted your candidates, book a call with them. Yes, this will require some time, but it’s necessary to understand the approach of each link-building service. Write down a list of questions about their tactics, networks, and workflow. If they don’t have a database of publishers on their site, now is the time to ask for it.
  3. Ensure you know what techniques they use. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach in link building. Yet, there are some tactics that can do no good for your rankings. Even if an SEO company says they use a guest-posting strategy, ensure you ask how they execute it. Will they do link insertions in the articles or create your posts from scratch? If so, who will write them, and how can you check their quality?
  4. Check whether a service sets clear goals and KPIs. Look, if you’re going to spend your budget on link building, you need some sort of accountability from your SEO company. If they don’t set clear objectives and metrics at the very beginning, imagine how frustrating it’ll be working with them in the future. If someone says they don’t or can’t track SEO, walk (or run) away.
  5. Ask about timelines. SEO is anything but fast. If you want to get high rankings in search engines, prepare for the long term and consistently move towards your goals. But ensure your link-building service gives you some realistic timelines. You might encounter services that promise you incredible results in a couple of weeks and others that can only get you where you want to be in years. Both of those scenarios are unreasonable. Try to look for a balanced approach with realistic deadlines – think three to nine months.
  6. Make sure you are clear on pricing. The last thing you want is to have your link-building strategy up and running and then get an extra charge out of nowhere. That’s why you must discuss your budget before working together. You can ask specifically about additional fees or expenses you may face.

Wrapping up

Link building is here to stay. Whether you like it or not, it remains an integral part of search engine optimization. That’s why if you choose not to hire an in-house team, find someone who knows what they’re doing and outsource this process to them.

One last piece of advice — when you get a service that works, stick to it to ensure consistency. Unless your alarm bells go off and the match is just plain bad, jumping around from service to service will only slow your progress. Hang in there and let your SEO work. Link building takes time but when it works, it feels like magic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions about our SEO link building service? Browse our FAQs:

What is link building?

Link building is the process of amassing quality inbound hyperlinks from other sites to your own for the sake of making your site more visible to search engines and visitors.

How would you build links to my website?

We use a variety of tactics that all revolve around outreach. We contact relevant and authoritative websites across the internet to get our clients listed on resource lists, blog posts, news articles, and requesting websites to fix their broken links. We find creative ways to pitch story ideas and will even create infographics or content pieces that we call “linkable assets”, to provide valuable resources for websites to link to.

What is more important, quality or quantity?

Quality is always more important than quantity. A website that has 1,000 low quality links will generally rank much lower in comparison to a site with 10 high quality links. Google places a great deal of weight on the link source so that it is not easy to game the system. This helps ensure the quality and integrity of their search results.

How many links will you build for my website?

In each of the proposals we present, we provide a conservative estimate of how many links can be built at that specific level of monthly investment. More often than not, we will far exceed those numbers. Our primary focus will always be on the quality of what is being built rather than the quantity. Building low quality links are much easier, which is what many SEO companies offer, almost treating them like an endless commodity. The fact is that you will get back what you put into your website. If you hire a company and what they build is low quality, you will get low quality results. Quality is paramount to our agency’s reputation, and that is what we deliver.

Should I have a link building strategy?

If you have a website and would like to improve or maintain your search positions, you should have a strategy in place. It is important because it is very likely that your competitors are working to achieve better results and you will not want your website to be placed at a disadvantage.

What are external and internal links?

External links are links that are pointing from one website to another, whereas internal links are links pointing from one page to another within the same website. While there is great value in linking internally to pass link equity and authority throughout the website, links from external websites pointing to your webpages carry much more weight in Google’s algorithm.

Why is it important for search rankings?

Links remain one of the most important search engine ranking factors in Google and Bing. Most search marketers understand that the content of a website is important, but what sets websites apart are the links that point to them. Links act as a vote of confidence from one website to another, essentially vouching for each other to signify that the content contained is important. See Also: What is SEO?

How are your techniques better than other companies?

There are numerous SEO companies that claim they do link building. They tell their clients that they will write blog posts and websites will link to them. Where they miss the mark is that they usually don’t publicize the content and thus links never really materialize. We excel at outreach to webmasters, bloggers, and journalists. Not only that, our proprietary methods of identifying quality link targets get our clients noticed and generate authoritative links that propel them in the search rankings. Our techniques are one of many reasons we were named SEO Agency of the Year.

How long will it be before I see results?

This will vary from website to website, industry to industry. Every website has a different starting pointing as they usually don’t have the same exact link profile as their competitors. It typically can take up to 6 months to see significant movement, more or less depending on the starting point and the level of effort invested in the campaign.

How must does it cost?

It can range from a few hundred dollars per month to several thousand. It is wise to allow for a healthy budget for this service, as this activity is one of the most important determining factors as to how a website will perform in the search results. If you are looking at a more comprehensive SEO strategy, all proposals will include link building activities as well. Contact us for a free consultation and we can provide a quote based on the specific needs of your website.

What are do-follow and no-follow links?

Links that have a do-follow designation means that the website containing the link is vouching for the website being linked to, allowing the search engines to follow and pass link equity credit. Links that have a no-follow designation means that the website containing the link is telling the search engines that they will not vouch for the quality or authoritativeness of the webpage being linked to, notifying them to not follow through to the website, thus not providing link equity credit. All natural link profiles have a mixture of both of these types and several of the web’s top publishers place a no-follow designation as standard policy.

What tools do you use?

We use a variety of proprietary and third-party tools to identify high quality link prospects that are likely to make a significant impact in our clients search positions. We always have the latest technology at our finger tips to give our clients an advantage over their competitors.
