Digital PR · Link building

Most agencies sell you links from sites no journalist has heard of.
We earn coverage from publications your buyers actually read.

Digital PR campaigns built on real stories — original data, founder commentary, expert reaction — pitched to the journalists who cover your industry. The links are a byproduct of coverage that builds brand and traffic alongside SEO.

The problem

Most link building is embarrassing to explain.

Your CEO probably wouldn't be proud of half the links most agencies build. Digital PR is the version of link building that survives the executive review — coverage your team would screenshot in a Slack channel, not hide from clients.

  • 73% of links from generic guest posts get devalued by Google within 18 months

  • A single Tier-1 press mention can outperform 50 guest post links combined

  • Editorial links signal entity authority to AI engines, not just Google

  • PR mentions create the source citations LLMs use when generating answers

Methodology

How we work.

Not a generic playbook. The order matters and so does the depth at each step.

  1. 01

    Story angle development

    We work with you to identify newsworthy angles — original research you can run, contrarian takes from your founder, reactions to industry news. Real stories that journalists actually want.

  2. 02

    Original data + research

    The most-cited digital PR campaigns are built on original data. We run surveys, analyze proprietary data you already have, or commission research that gives journalists something they can't get elsewhere.

  3. 03

    Journalist research + targeting

    We build curated lists of the specific journalists covering your space, what they've written recently, and the angles most likely to land with each one. No spray-and-pray pitching.

  4. 04

    Pitching + relationship building

    Personalized pitches sent at the right time, in the right format. Most journalists hate PR pitches because most pitches are bad. Ours aren't.

  5. 05

    Coverage amplification

    Once coverage lands, we amplify it — social, internal team comms, secondary outreach to syndication partners. One placement frequently turns into 3-5 with the right follow-up.

  6. 06

    Reporting + attribution

    Monthly reports showing coverage landed, link metrics (DR, traffic, relevance), referral traffic, and brand mention pickup across AI engines.

FAQ

Common questions.

What kinds of publications do you target?

It depends entirely on your audience. For B2B SaaS, that's typically TechCrunch, Forbes, Fast Company, industry trades (e.g., Marketing Brew, The Information), and high-authority niche blogs. For ecommerce, it includes Retail Dive, Modern Retail, Glossy, and consumer lifestyle press. We don't target sites no one reads just to pad a link report.

How is this different from regular link building?

Traditional link building treats links as the product — you pay per link, more is better. Digital PR treats coverage as the product, and the link is the byproduct. A single feature in a Tier-1 publication usually outperforms 50+ generic links on every metric that matters: brand, traffic, AI citation, and long-term SEO equity.

How long until I see results?

First placements typically land within 30-60 days of campaign launch. The full SEO impact of digital PR compounds over 3-6 months as the links age and as the entity strength accumulates. Brand and traffic impact is more immediate.

Do you guarantee a specific number of links?

No — and you should be skeptical of any agency that does, because guaranteed numbers usually mean paid placements or PBNs. We target ranges based on industry benchmarks and report transparently on what landed and why. The 90-day refund promise covers underperformance.
