Do-follow links, with the risk stated plainly.
Links inside placed content.
All links are do-follow
Links point to your site from the content we place. No nofollow or sponsored-rel option is offered.
Fixed counts per package
Starter includes 5 links, Growth includes 15. One-time packages, no recurring billing.
Paid do-follow links carry risk
Google's spam policies treat paid links that pass ranking credit as link spam and recommend rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow". These links may violate Google's policies.
No compliance or ranking promise
We do not claim compliance with Google's guidelines and do not promise ranking improvements. Weigh this with your SEO lead before you buy.

What the data says about links.
Referring domains vs. rankings
Ahrefs (Patrick Stox, Jan 2025) analyzed the top 1 million US keywords. Referring domains showed a Spearman correlation of 0.255 with top 20 rankings, which Ahrefs described as weak.

In the same study, total backlinks showed a Spearman correlation of 0.248 with top 20 rankings. Ahrefs describes these correlations as weak or very weak; correlation is not causation.

Common questions.
Are the links do-follow? Is that within Google's guidelines?
All links are do-follow. No nofollow or sponsored-rel option is offered. You should know that Google's spam policies treat paid links that pass ranking credit as link spam, and Google recommends marking paid or sponsored links with rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow". Do-follow paid links can therefore conflict with Google's guidelines and carry risk. We do not claim blanket compliance. Weigh this with your SEO lead before you buy.
What exactly is guaranteed?
The deliverables in your package: the specified number of posts, brand mentions and links, including #1 position within the sponsored listicle features we arrange. Posts are guaranteed to stay live for at least 12 months. What is not guaranteed is any outcome that depends on third parties: Google rankings, traffic, leads, or whether an AI assistant like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google AI Overviews mentions you. Nobody can honestly promise those.
Is this a subscription, or can I buy a package whenever I want?
These are one-time packages, not subscriptions. Buy whichever package you need, whenever you need it. There is no recurring billing or automatic renewal, and you can purchase another package whenever you're ready. Packages cannot be changed after ordering.
