How the Links Guy link building service works
We get results
We have a link building technique which gets results. And we’re not afraid to explain it in a way that’s easy for everyone to understand.
First of all, one bit of jargon – we’re a white hat link building agency. That means that everything we do is in line with industry standards. Using us means you won’t end up blacklisted and penalised by search engines for using shady practices. Believe us, it can happen. This is the Links Guy approach to link building services – what makes us different and what makes us the best. We don’t’ just build links – we analyse everything to ensure that the links we build are actually making a difference to your web traffic and search rankings.
Our Link Building Process
We don’t do one-size-fits-all
Our starting point is always what makes your business unique –
Analysis of Link Profile & Fact-Finding
We analyse your link profile, find out where we should be building links, the strong and weak points, and work with you to understand more about your business and target audience. This helps us immensely with strategy, and we are happy to work with clients closely, to ensure we have understood the business, so we can build the links that are going to maximise results.
Link Building Strategy & Competitor Analysis
Any link building campaign has to start with strategy. We’ll look at what link building tactics we can use, which industries we can get links from, and also what our competitors have been doing (or haven’t been doing.)
Data Prospecting
Mining data on relevant websites and people is crucial to fuel our tactics. Our team of expert prospectors will trawl the net with various techniques – be it scraping large data sets, manually prospecting via Google, or extracting targeted niche lists from directories – the goal here is to create very targeted lists of sites, and people, where we can get the exact links we need. You’ll also be able to see in real-time as we add these prospects to the list as well.
Outreach & Link Acquisition
We’ll now send very targeted outreach to those prospects. Our team of
highly trained outreachers are very skilled in the art of email copywriting
and persuasion, and will adapt their approach depending on the niche/website
type/person we’re reaching out to.
They also work hand-in-hand with our content team to ensure we keep the
editors happy, but also ensure we are very strategic about anchor text
placement and niche relevance – so we can create amazing guest post pieces
that stand the best chance of being published, but also are capable of
driving results.
Process Calibration
Everything we’ve learned up to this point, acts as a feedback loop. We want to ensure we maintain link building results and don’t stagnate. So, if we find some industries or tactics are particularly successful, that’s something we’ll learn from and use for the campaign. While if a tactic didn’t work, but we expected it to – we’ll take that back to strategy and with the use of our in-house tools and analytics, we’ll determine how we can improve results for the following cycle.
Sounds simple doesn’t it?
But the key to a good link building service is creating content people want to read, share and link to. The key to doing that is making it good!
Sometimes it’s a case of making the best of content you already have. Sometimes it’s helping you use your expert knowledge of your industry to develop amazing content. Sometimes it’s working with our trusted writers to create the content you need.
But content is king – something a lot of our competitors seem to forget.
The personal touch
We are an outreach-based links building agency.
What that means is we identify the influencers and leading outlets who are most interested in businesses like yours and build long-term relationships with them.
When we have that relationship we nurture and maintain it to make sure you get link building service and brings customers to your company – and keeps them coming.
