Google's strongest signal
Backlinks remain one of the strongest signals Google trusts. Earned links from sites it already respects move rankings where content alone can't.
EARNED AUTHORITY AT SCALE Become the source

that search and AI cite.
We earn the backlinks, citations, and brand mentions that build real topical authority. The kind built to lift rankings and get you cited in ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. No link farms, no spam.
TRUSTED BY OPERATORS ACROSS EIGHT INDUSTRIES
6 Dimensions Vetted
3,000+ Distribution Publishers
70+ Citation Directories
The signal Google trusts.
The one AI cites.
Backlinks and citations are still how search decides who ranks, and increasingly how AI decides whom to quote. Here is what authority actually moves.
How AI picks who to cite
ChatGPT, Gemini, and AI Overviews pull from sources they trust. The more authoritative your mentions, the more often they name you in the answer.
What wins the map pack
Consistent citations and local links drive the local pack and "near me." Clean NAP feeds off-page authority and local visibility at once.
We grade every publisher
before we pursue it.
Before we chase a single link, each candidate runs a six-dimension vetting engine. We read up to 50 of its own posts and classify roughly 500 of its outbound links. We keep link farms and spam off your profile.
SIX DIMENSIONS ~500 LINKS CLASSIFIED EACH
01 Domain Authority Link-earned trust, with a spam discount so inflated authority reads at true strength.
02 Spam Signals Toxicity and footprint checks that flag PBNs and link networks.
03 Referring-Domain Diversity How varied its inbound links are: a sign of real editorial reach.
04 Paid-to-Editorial Ratio We classify roughly 500 outbound links as editorial or commercial.
05 Open Link Sales Whether it advertises link sales, an instant disqualifier.
06 Content Quality We read up to 50 of its own posts to judge a real publication.
The publishers Google
already trusts on your topics.
We build your outreach list from your market's own search results, then vet and cap it, so your link profile grows at a natural pace.
Map the demand
We map the keyword demand across your industry, the terms your buyers actually search.
Score who ranks
We scrape who ranks for those terms and score every domain by how strongly and how often it wins.
Vet and cap
Only domains that clear the vetting engine make the list, capped per client.

Real links on real
publications.
Two ways we put your brand on pages people and AI engines already read, with placements verified after they go live.
Content Placements
Guest placements on real publications, tracked from pitch to live URL. Links are verified after they go live: we confirm each is real, points to your site, and is the link type promised. A placement quietly removed or switched to nofollow gets flagged, never counted as a win you never received.
Authority Distribution
Newsroom-ready data journalism distributed through partner newswires to 3,000+ publishers. Strong stories earn hundreds of pickups, and each carries a clean brand mention and homepage link built to be cited by AI answer engines as well as read by people.
One clean NAP,
everywhere that matters.
Consistent name, address, and phone across 70+ directories, data aggregators, and the voice and AI surfaces buyers ask. Clean citations feed your off-page authority and your local visibility at once.

How do you get us cited in ChatGPT and AI Overviews?
Authority content is built with source citations and entity-level signals, then placed on publishers the engines already trust. The more credible your mentions, the more often AI names you in the answer.
How soon do links start moving rankings?
Vetting and the first placements run in the first month. Ranking movement on the pages those links point to typically compounds from month 2 to 3, and builds as the profile grows at a natural pace.
What's the difference between placements and distribution?
Placements are guest articles earned on individual publications, tracked pitch-to-live. Distribution is newsroom-ready data journalism pushed through partner newswires to 3,000+ outlets at once.
Do you handle citations and directories too?
Yes. Consistent NAP across 70+ directories, data aggregators, and the voice and AI surfaces, which feeds off-page authority and local visibility together.
