Honest fit check

Who needs ecommerce link building?

Links help when the pages are already worth linking to. Here's who benefits, and who should look elsewhere first.

A great fit

Who it’s for

  • Good fit: Stores with good pages and few links

    Your collections and guides are solid, but competitors have far more sites pointing to theirs.

  • Good fit: Brands with something worth covering

    A product, data, story or expertise that journalists and bloggers might actually write about.

  • Good fit: Stores in competitive categories

    Rankings stall behind sites with stronger link profiles.

  • Good fit: Teams without outreach capacity

    You can't spend hours a week on prospecting, pitching and follow-up.

  • Good fit: Owners wary of risky link tactics

    You want links earned through outreach, not bought from networks.

  • Good fit: Stores ready to invest for months

    You understand that links build gradually.

Probably not a fit

Who it’s not for

  • Not a fit: Stores that haven't launched

    With no pages to point links to, build the store first.

  • Not a fit: Anyone expecting guaranteed links

    Outreach depends on other people saying yes. We can't promise a number or timing.

  • Not a fit: Anyone wanting paid link packages

    We don't buy links or use private networks.

  • Not a fit: Sites with technical or content problems

    Links help most when pages are indexable and worth linking to. Fix those first.

  • Not a fit: Anyone after links at the lowest price

    Relevant editorial placements take research and effort that cheap packages skip.

  • Not a fit: Businesses that don't sell online

    Our work is built around products, categories and carts.

Not sure which side you're on? We'll tell you honestly.

How we work

From link review to live placements

Four steps from research to a report on every link. Content assets and ongoing outreach are scoped separately.

  1. Step 1 of 4

    Research

    We review your links and competitors'.

    We review your link profile, compare it with the sites you compete against, and find which pages need links and which sites might link.

    • Review your current links for risk
    • Compare against competing stores
    • Pick the pages that most need links
    • Spot sites that link to competitors
  2. Step 2 of 4

    Angles

    A reason for someone to link.

    We find the story, data, product or expertise that a publisher would want to cover, and build the assets that support it.

    • Find what is newsworthy about your brand
    • Check angles against what sites cover
    • Plan supporting data or guides
    • Agree angles with you before outreach
  3. Step 3 of 4

    Outreach

    Personal pitches to relevant sites.

    We build lists of relevant sites, send personal pitches, follow up and track every response, with your approval on messaging.

    • Build lists of relevant sites
    • Write pitches for each contact
    • Follow up without spamming
    • Track replies and placements
  4. Step 4 of 4

    Report

    You see what landed and what's next.

    We report on outreach and the links earned, check they are live and pointing where intended, and plan the next round.

    • List every link earned
    • Check links are live and indexable
    • Review effect on target pages
    • Plan the next round of outreach

How we compare

Why editorial links over bought links

Link packages are cheap and risky. Relevant editorial placements take more work and hold up over time.

Link building FAQ

Ecommerce link building questions

Straight answers, including what we won't promise.

Ask us something else

A review of your link profile, competitor link gaps, angles and assets worth linking to, outreach to relevant sites, and reporting on every placement. The scope depends on your store, your category and your goals.

No. We don't buy links or use private blog networks. We pitch relevant sites and earn editorial placements, which takes longer but is safer and holds up better over time.

We don't promise a number. Outreach depends on other people choosing to link, so we agree the effort we'll put in and report honestly on what it earns.

We choose priority collections, products and guides with you, based on revenue potential and ranking opportunity. Links to pages that can't rank or convert are rarely worth the effort.

We look at sites that cover your category, link to competing stores or publish roundups and guides in your space. Each target is checked for relevance and quality.

Digital PR means creating something newsworthy, such as data, a study or a useful tool, and pitching it to journalists and publishers. Coverage often includes links back to your site.

Yes. You see the angles and pitch messaging before outreach starts, and we agree what we'll say on your behalf.

Links build gradually and the effect on rankings is not immediate. We set expectations for your store and category when we scope the work.

Poor-quality or paid links can. That is why we focus on relevant editorial links and review your existing profile for risky ones. We can't guarantee any outcome.

Yes. We also work with BigCommerce, Magento, headless storefronts and custom platforms. We check that link targets have clean URLs and correct redirects first.
