The Challenge

Stop Buying Links.
Start Earning Them.

Most link building fails for the same three reasons. Here's how Ankore is built differently.

01

The Volume Trap

Most agencies sell link counts, not link quality. You end up with placements that don't move rankings — and a report you can't show clients.

02

The Disclosure Problem

Cheap placements get flagged or removed within months. The 'great deal' becomes the most expensive line item once it disappears.

03

The Anchor Trap

Over-optimized anchor distribution looks great in spreadsheets — and triggers Google's spam filters. Most agencies don't model this.

The Solution

Ankore Gives You The Edge.

The Process

From Brief To Placement.

A process you can audit at every step. No black boxes, no surprise invoices, no recycled outreach templates.

01

Brief & Strategy

Kickoff call to align on targets, anchor preferences, and sites to avoid. You get a written link plan before any outreach goes out.

02

Our team identifies and pitches publishers in your niche. You see live prospects and can veto anything off-brand before we proceed.

03

Editorial Placement

Approved placements go live with the anchor and link target you specified. Each comes with the live URL and publisher metrics.

04

Transparent Reporting

Monthly report with placements, anchor distribution, DR/traffic data, and recommendations. Yours to share with clients.

The Difference

Ankore vs the typical agency.

We've seen the playbooks. Hidden pricing, link networks wearing PR makeup, and reports that mistake link counts for outcomes. Here's where we land differently.

FAQ

Common questions.

The questions we get most before clients sign on. If yours isn't here, the answer is probably yes — but ask anyway.

How is Ankore different from cheap link sellers on Fiverr or Upwork?

+

Cheap placements are usually private blog networks (PBNs) or auto-approved sites. They get flagged, removed, or de-indexed within months. Ankore places links on real, traffic-verified, editorial publications — and backs every placement with a 12-month replacement guarantee. The unit cost is higher; the cost-per-permanent-link is much lower.

Do you guarantee rankings?

+

No, and anyone who does is selling you a story. Rankings depend on dozens of factors outside link building — content, technical SEO, intent match, competition. We guarantee the inputs we control: placement quality, DR floor, anchor distribution, and replacement cover. Our retention rate (94% past month six) is the proof point we stand behind.

What's the minimum engagement?

+

À la carte placements have no minimum — order one guest post and we'll ship it. Managed retainers start at three months because link building doesn't show meaningful results below that. After three months you can go month-to-month or scale up.

How do you handle anchor text and over-optimization risk?

+

We model your existing anchor distribution against natural patterns for your niche, then build to match — not exceed — what looks organic. Most agencies skip this entirely; it's the single most common reason "link building campaigns" trigger algorithmic penalties.

Can you work in regulated industries?

+

Most yes — SaaS, ecommerce, B2B services, education, AI tooling. For finance, gambling, CBD, and adult, we evaluate case-by-case based on local law and publisher acceptance. We won't quietly take money for a campaign we can't ship.

What if I already have links and just want to scale?

+

Perfect — that's our most common scenario. We start with an audit of your existing link profile, anchor distribution, and ranking gaps, then build a velocity plan from there. Most retainer clients come in with 200–2,000 existing referring domains.
