Solutions / Startup distribution

Startup link building with a fixed scope—and the risk stated plainly.

A startup can buy a defined set of posts, brand mentions and links without starting a subscription. You know the package counts and the one-time price before ordering.

That clarity does not make paid links risk-free. All links are do-follow, and paid links that pass ranking credit can conflict with Google’s spam policies. We do not guarantee rankings.

01 / Solution

A one-time order is not an ongoing retainer

Our packages are one-time purchases with no recurring billing or automatic renewal. Buy another package when you need it. This is a difference in purchasing structure, not a claim that every startup needs the same distribution cadence.

A retainer and a fixed package are different ways to scope work. Compare the actual deliverables and terms rather than assume an ongoing fee or a one-time order guarantees better SEO outcomes. We do not attack or make claims about named providers.

02 / Solution

Posts and mentions are part of the order, not extras

Starter includes 5 posts, 20 brand mentions and 5 links. Growth includes 10 posts, 100 brand mentions and 15 links. Both include writing, placement and #1 position in sponsored listicle features we arrange.

Posts explain a relevant topic; mentions name your brand in published content; links point to your site. The included report lists the live URLs, mentions and links so you can verify the order rather than infer completion from a search ranking.

  • Third-Party Posts

    Original articles with writing, editing and placement included.

  • Brand Mentions

    Named references counted once per published appearance.

  • Backlinks

    All links are do-follow. Read the Google paid-link disclosure.

03 / Solution

Read this before treating links as an SEO shortcut

All links are do-follow. No nofollow or sponsored-rel option is offered. Google treats paid links that pass ranking credit as link spam and recommends rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow" for paid links. Our paid do-follow links can therefore conflict with Google’s guidelines. We do not claim blanket compliance or guarantee rankings. Discuss the risk with your SEO lead before buying.

Sponsorship labeling for readers and a link’s rel attribute are not the same thing. Our placements are labeled sponsored, while all links remain do-follow. There is no nofollow or sponsored-rel option.

From your brief to a live list of deliverables

Brief us on your positioning, audience, competitors, supportable claims and off-limits topics. We match sites to your industry and the places your buyers read. You can veto a proposed site that does not fit.

We build a core knowledge document from your brand’s website, then write and edit the content. If legal or internal approval is required, submit your already-approved content in the order form. Team-written drafts are not sent for pre-publication approval.

We manage publisher submission, editorial review and sponsorship labeling. Turnaround is within 5 business days. Reporting is a live list of the published URLs, mentions and links in your order—not a promise of traffic, rankings or AI citations.

05 / Solution

Order terms are fixed too

There are no refunds or cancellations because we work with a large volume of third-party vendors and cannot get refunds or cancellations from them. Packages cannot be changed after ordering.

Turnaround is within 5 business days. Posts are guaranteed to stay live for at least 12 months. The publisher, the third-party site, owns the content. Tax is not added at checkout.

Custom packages are available through business@offsiteposts.com, without a published custom price. A promo code can be entered at checkout if one has been provided; no discount is promised here.

Research

Research is not a return forecast

The Ahrefs 75,000-brand study found a 0.664 correlation for branded web mentions with Google AI Overview visibility, compared with 0.218 for backlinks. It does not establish the value of a purchased link or predict a startup’s rankings.

Google’s paid-link policy is directly relevant to the purchasing decision, regardless of a research correlation. Do not turn a fixed link count into a claim of guaranteed organic growth.

These are third-party, observational findings, not offsiteposts.com client results. Correlation is not causation. They do not predict what any brand will see, and other AI engines may weigh signals differently. Rankings, traffic, leads and AI assistant mentions are not guaranteed.
