Our SEO Service

Backlink Acquisition

Please note: We only acquire backlinks from English sites. We cannot do multi-language outreach.

IMPORTANT: We are not the best solution for at scale backlink acquisition. We do HARO outreach which is a trusted, industry standard white-hat method. We contact publishers to refer back to the blog content that we publish on your site.

Many areas of this are out of our control, including when publishers update their content, when they reindex it and when it shows up in backlink trackers. All of this takes time.

We do not promise you backlinks. Because we do not buy them, we do not makes deals with anyone. We are not a shady backlink service.

Some SEO services will promise you links. They are going to be fake and removed over time. We have been in business since 2016 and have a well refined outreach process and team, but because we do not pay for them or host the sites ourselves, it can take longer than the 2/3 month timeframe.

For some, this isn't ok and we understand. You can buy what are called Private Blog Network (PBN) backlinks. If you want a white-hat solution we are a good fit. If you need artificial link placement quickly, we are a bad fit. 🙏

Here's what you should know about our backlink acquisition process.

  • It's 100% white-hat. We don't own any sites or pay anyone for backlinks.
  • We focus on local links (if you're a local business) or niche relevant (if you're nationwide/online).
  • We acquire links via link placements in active content. This is how many PR agencies work.
  • The link placement refers back to our weekly blog content. This is why helpful content is important.

Let's go over the specifics.

Process

Our outreach process does not work if you aren't publishing our content or optimizing your site. This is why we don't offer backlink only solutions. The truth is, if you are being compliant with Google's guidelines, you can't buy links or do them singularly. Any provider that does is either buying them via an artificial network of sites, or owns a network of sites. In the SEO industry, we call this a PBN (Private Blog Network).

We don't do that and are heavily against it.

At Ranked AI, we contact media sites that are either local to you or niche relevant to acquire link placements in active content. Publishers need to keep their content fresh with new references and updated information. This is where our weekly content comes in.

By providing informative, helpful content to link to, it benefits the publishers site and yours. We've built a name for ourselves over the years as a reliable provider for content to link back to, which allows us to acquire backlinks for you consistently.

The Pros

There are many benefits to this process:

  • It's compliant with Google's Terms of Service, you won't get penalized.
  • It's an asset that stays there, it doesn't get removed.
  • The referring traffic is intent-driven and high-quality.
  • It helps you rank much faster and for longer compared to PBN's.

The Cons

There are a few negatives to this process, depending on your view:

  • It's not instant, they take 2-3 months to consistently come through. Usually over 3 months onwards. If we are lucky, then 2.
  • You're not going to acquire 1000's (you don't need 1000's, some people want that though!).
  • You'll need to let us publish our content and optimize your site on time.

Quantity

The more content we publish, the more outreach we can do for you. Please note that we do not guarantee them as we only do custom outreach, we do not buy them or own our own networks. There are factors out of our control where at times, link quantity fluctuates up and down.

Estimated amounts per month:

  • Standard acquires 3 to 4 links per month.
  • Plus acquires 6 to 8.
  • Enterprise acquires 12 to 16.

These come through by month 2 or 3. We aim for them to go live as soon as possible, but this does depend on external publishers updating their content, their schedule, your website being optimized, our content published, etc.

When they are live, we report it right away to you via the Backlinks tab.

The Backlinks tab on your project - acquired links show in 'New' as they go live.

If you're looking for a genuine backlink acquiring solution, we are a good fit. If you're looking to artificially boost your site with a network of fake links, we are not a good fit.
