The three problems it solves
You don't know which sites to target
Guessing produces pitches to outlets that were never going to cover you. The plan names 8–15 publications and journalists that actually cover your niche, each with a real contact path and a written reason why it might care about your site.
Your outreach gets ignored
Cold blasts with no angle get deleted. The plan pairs every target with a specific hook — the page, data point, or story worth their attention — and gives you three pre-adapted email templates written the way editors expect to be pitched.
You have no time to research
Qualifying outlets, finding the right editor, and reading what they actually publish takes hours per target. A strategist does that research for you and hands it over as a 30-day action sequence you can start executing the day the plan lands.
See the actual plan before you buy
Don't take our word for it — read a fully written backlink outreach plan in the exact format you receive, using a sample plan for a fictional business. It shows the structure, depth, and honesty of the $149 deliverable end to end.
What's in the plan
Everything you need to start pitching — nothing you can't use. The same inclusions as our full plan.

Ready-to-personalize email copy written the way journalists expect to be pitched.

Delivered within 5 business days
Emailed to the address you paid with within 5 business days of payment — one flat fee, no ongoing retainer.
What a target in your plan looks like
Plans name real publications and journalists for your niche. As an illustration of the format, here's a type of target that appears in many plans — with the kind of written reasoning each entry carries:
Target type: your niche's trade publication
- Why it fits: it publishes how-to and industry-news coverage for exactly your audience, every week — and it regularly links out to businesses and data sources it writes about.
- The contact path: your plan points to the outlet's own published editorial or news-submission contact — never a guessed address, never a form nobody reads.
- The written reason: one short paragraph on why this outlet might care about your site specifically — what you have that its readers currently can't get elsewhere.
Your actual plan replaces the type with named, currently publishing outlets in your niche — each verified by hand the week your plan is researched.
A sample angle — and the email built on it
Every target in your plan gets a hook: something specific of yours worth an editor's attention. An illustrative example of the shape it takes (placeholders are filled in with your real details):
Sample content angle
A practical guide or small original dataset you already have — framed so a trade publication can cite it as the source for a point its readers care about. If your site has no linkable asset yet, the plan tells you which one to build first and why it would earn links in your niche.
Sample outreach email (illustrative template)
Subject: [Something specific you noticed in their recent coverage] Hi [First name], Your piece on [their actual article topic] was a useful read — especially [a genuine specific point]. We publish [your resource: guide / data / tool] on [your topic], which your readers in [their audience] might find useful as a source for [the specific point it supports]. If it's useful: [your URL]. Either way, thanks for the coverage you give [their beat]. [Your name]
Illustrative only. Your three plan templates are adapted to your site, your niche's outlets, and the angles researched for you — not sent as generics.
How your plan gets researched
- 1
Your site and niche, read properly
We review what your site can honestly support as a linkable asset today — pages, data, expertise — and map who else competes for your niche's attention.
- 2
Targets sourced and qualified by hand
Publications and journalists are found through your competitors' earned coverage and niche reading — then each one is checked: does it cover your niche, does it link out to businesses like yours, and does it publish a real contact path?
- 3
Angles matched to targets
For each qualified target, a specific reason your site could matter to it — or an honest note that it doesn't fit, in which case it doesn't make the plan.
- 4
Templates and sequence written
Three outreach emails adapted to your angles, plus a 30-day, week-by-week sequence with follow-up dates and a tracking setup you can keep using after month one.
Quality standards: every target is verified manually — real, currently publishing outlets with a contact path they published themselves. No link farms, no paid-placement lists, no private blog networks. And the honest limit: no placement is ever guaranteed — by us or by anyone honest in this industry. We guarantee the quality of the research, never the outcome.

How a link building plan compares to the alternatives
We sell strategy and research — verified targets, angles, templates, and a sequence. We don't sell placements or links, and we don't claim to be a tool. Here's an honest read on each option:
Agency
The full recurring service — a team runs your link building month over month on a retainer.
Powerful if you have the budget and want it done for you (verified industry entry retainers run roughly $425–$5,500/mo). But it's ongoing spend for ongoing work, and outcomes are still never guaranteed.
Right when you want execution, month after month, and can afford it.
Freelancer
A person you hire to run outreach for you.
Quality and availability vary person to person, and a good one usually commands a recurring fee. If you'd rather someone else send the emails, a freelancer may remain the right call.
Right when you want someone to do the sending.
Software (Ahrefs, Semrush, Respona…)
Powerful tools for research, auditing, outreach, and monitoring — each usually a separate subscription you operate yourself.
They solve different components of the same workflow, and those components are commonly separate tools used together. We produce the strategy layer on top: who to contact, what angle, what to say. Tools and a plan complement each other.
Right for the operational work — and they don't do the human outreach-sequencing strategy we sell.
DIY
Do the research and outreach yourself, free.
Viable and genuinely free — our guides cover the whole method. But it costs hours of research, target qualification, and outreach writing, and reply rates tend to be low when you're starting cold.
Right when your time is free and you don't mind slow progress.
No path here guarantees rankings — ours included. Judge any option by the quality of its research and what it honestly promises. See how a researched plan sets up a new site for links.

Founding cohort
$99first customers
The same researched plan at a reduced rate, in exchange for candid feedback and — with explicit, revocable consent — an anonymized case study of how the plan works in practice.
You keep the full deliverable: every target, angle, template, and the 30-day sequence. Nothing about the research is reduced — only the price.
Both options: strategy and research only — no links are bought, no placement is ever guaranteed.
Proof comes from founding customers — consent-first
We're building our first cohort of founding customers now: they pay a reduced rate in exchange for candid feedback and, with explicit, revocable consent, an anonymized case study of how the plan works in practice. We'll publish only what real customers have agreed to share — never a fabricated result.
Until real consented data exists, the strongest proof we can show you is the sample deliverable itself — inspect the actual plan you'd receive.

Frequently asked
What's included in the link building plan?
A hand-researched, personalized outreach plan for your website and niche: 8–15 verified target publications and journalists with real contact paths, linkable content angles, three outreach templates pre-adapted to your site, a 30-day action sequence, and tracking setup.
How fast will I get the plan?
Your plan is emailed to the address you paid with within 5 business days of payment. The research step is what takes the time — a strategist digs into your site and niche before anything is sent.
Are links guaranteed?
No — no placement is ever guaranteed, by us or by anyone honest in the industry. Every outlet, person, and angle in your plan is real and verifiable, but links are earned by editors on their own timeline. We guarantee the work, never the outcome.
Do I do the outreach myself?
Yes. We produce the strategy — who to contact, what angle, and what to say, with ready-to-personalize templates and a 30-day sequence. You send the emails. If you'd rather someone else run outreach for you, a freelancer or agency may still be the right fit.
How is this different from hiring an agency?
An agency is an ongoing monthly retainer that runs link building for you. This is a one-time $149 flat fee for the research and strategy layer — verified targets, angles, templates, and a sequence you execute yourself. Neither guarantees rankings.
Do you offer refunds or revisions?
If the delivered plan doesn't match what we describe, get in touch through the contact page. Because the plan is researched and tailored to your specific site and niche, we can't offer a blanket money-back for outcomes — but we stand behind the quality of the research.
