Managed Outreach
A dedicated outreach team building links specifically for your site, using your brief, your targets, and your style. Custom strategy, monthly delivery, no template campaigns, no shared work pools.
Why this matters.
Managed outreach is for sites that have outgrown one-off link buys. You have a target keyword set, a content footprint, an anchor profile that needs to evolve in a particular direction, and a budget that wants accountability — not a marketplace experience.
We allocate a named outreach lead and a small pod to your account. The same humans every month, building real publisher relationships, learning your voice, and accumulating context that a one-off vendor never has. Mixed link types — guest posts, niche edits, occasional digital PR — sequenced strategically based on where your link profile actually needs help.
The output is a real strategic deliverable, not a placement count. Monthly briefs review the prior cycle's anchor distribution, target-page coverage, and competitive movement. Adjustments are explicit and documented. By month three you have the kind of compounding link asset that does not exist when you are buying placements one at a time.
Every package, no asterisks.
What you get with this service across every tier — the fundamentals don't change as you scale up.
Dedicated outreach team
A named outreach lead and team allocated to your account. Same humans every month, building real publisher relationships and accumulating campaign context.
Custom strategy
Kickoff strategy doc — target pages, anchor distribution, link velocity, publisher mix — reviewed with you before any pitch goes out.
Mixed link types
Guest posts, niche edits, and digital PR mixed strategically based on where your profile needs help. No templated 10-guest-posts-a-month playbooks.
Live reporting dashboard
Real-time view of outreach status, in-flight pitches, placements live, and end-of-month forecast. No status-update meetings required.
Anchor distribution audits
Quarterly anchor audit and adjustment — we model your existing profile, niche-natural distribution, and competitive set, then keep campaign math on rails.
Competitive benchmarking
Quarterly review of your link velocity, anchor mix, and host quality versus your three closest SERP competitors. Adjustments documented and approved.
What you'll see, and when.
Concrete signals to expect across the engagement. We do not promise rankings or guarantees we cannot honor.
Strategy doc delivered
Written link plan in week one — target pages, anchor distribution targets, link velocity, publisher mix, competitive baseline.
Monthly placement velocity
8–30 placements per month depending on tier. Velocity stays steady; quality bar does not flex with volume.
Anchor distribution holds
Quarterly anchor audit confirms campaign math — exact-match within bands, branded distribution diversifying, no single-anchor over-indexing.
Ranking lift on tracked pages
Most retainers show measurable ranking improvements on the agreed target page set within 90 days, compounding through month six.
From brief to placement.
A predictable 5-step flow. You see progress at every stage and can intervene any time.
Strategy kickoff
60–90 minute strategy session. We deliver a written link plan in week one: targets, anchor distribution, velocity, publisher categories, KPI baseline.
Monthly briefs
Each month starts with a brief check-in: target pages for the month, any new priorities, anchor adjustments, and competitive context.
Outreach & placement
Daily outreach across publishers, niche edits, and PR opportunities. Weekly progress updates; placements ship throughout the month, not bunched at month-end.
Monthly report & retro
End-of-month report with all placements, metrics, anchor distribution audit, and a retro on what to adjust next cycle.
Quarterly strategy review
Full quarterly review — competitive benchmarking, anchor mix audit, target page rotation, and budget reallocation if needed.

How we actually do this.
Tactical decisions that separate a campaign that compounds from one that just ships placements.
Mixed link types beat single-channel campaigns
Pure guest-post campaigns over-concentrate anchor patterns. Pure niche-edit campaigns lack new content. We mix to match your existing profile and the natural velocity of your competitive set.
We model your competitors, not just your site
Anchor decisions and velocity targets are calibrated against the link profiles of your top three SERP competitors — what is natural in your niche is what we aim for, not abstract best practices.
Caps and approval gates
Per-unit cost caps agreed in kickoff. Anything above the cap requires explicit approval. No one ships a $1,200 placement without you seeing the host first.
Same humans, every month
Account allocation is sticky. The lead who runs your kickoff is the lead writing your monthly report a year later. Continuity is the biggest predictor of campaign quality.
What's the contract minimum?
+
Three months. Link building does not show meaningful results below that, so a one-month engagement helps no one. After three months you can go month-to-month, scale up, or pause without penalty.
Can I cap costs per placement?
+
Yes. We agree on a maximum unit cost in the kickoff and stick to it. Placements above that threshold require explicit approval before commitment.
Will you work in regulated industries?
+
Most yes (SaaS, ecommerce, B2B services, edtech, fintech). For finance, gambling, CBD, adult, and weapons, we evaluate case-by-case based on local law and our publisher network's policies.
How do you avoid over-optimization?
+
We model your existing anchor distribution and Google's natural distribution for your niche, then build to match — not exceed — natural patterns. Quarterly audits catch drift before it becomes a problem.
What happens if a month underdelivers?
+
Underdelivery rolls forward. If you contracted for 12 placements and we ship 9, the next month delivers 15. We do not pocket the difference. If we are systematically failing to hit volume, we restructure the engagement.
Can I bring my own publisher relationships?
+
Yes. Many retainer clients have existing publisher contacts they want us to leverage. We treat your relationships as a priority pool and avoid duplicating pitches there.
How do you handle internal-team coordination?
+
We operate alongside your in-house team — providing the prospect list, drafts, and reporting; you maintain editorial oversight on anything that touches your brand voice. Most clients have a 30-minute weekly sync with their lead.
Do you provide on-page SEO recommendations?
+
We are link-building specialists, not full-stack SEO consultants. We will flag if a target page has a major on-page issue blocking the link from compounding, but full on-page optimization is not in scope.
