Why Linkbroker for scale-ups.
Scale-ups have a structural SEO problem. Product and funding are there, but the domain is young - and the incumbents in your category have built their authority over years. That's exactly where we come in.
You set the target pages and competitors for each project, with its own budget and brief. Instead of outreach, your team picks publishers with filters - from 100,000+ vetted publishers in every niche and country, each checked for authority, real traffic and spam signals.
Want to stay in control? Everything runs through the platform. No time for link building? Our team takes over with the managed service.
This turns organic into a second plannable channel next to paid. And your brand appears not only in Google, but also in AI answers - where your buyers increasingly start.
And here's what you can rely on with every order:
Best-price guarantee
Proof for every link
Scale up or pause anytime
12-month guarantee on all links
Catch up on authority, without the slowdown.
On the left, what you know. On the right, what changes.
The traditional way
Strong product, young domain, little authority.
Typically:
Great product, domain years behind
Incumbents own every relevant keyword
The press writes about others, not you
Budget's there, but no time for outreach
Growth only scales through paid ads
With Linkbroker
Link building and digital PR on one platform.
Instead:
Link building closes the authority gap
Targeted backlinks against the incumbents
Your brand in relevant publications
A platform instead of outreach
Organic reduces reliance on paid ads

Working with Linkbroker, we've been able to build strong, high-quality links much more efficiently. We get high-quality links without spending ages on it, and it actually works: our authority went up, and we now rank in more difficult areas too.

TIER II Linkbuilding: An underrated secret weapon!
In the dynamic world of search engine optimisation (SEO), backlinks play a central role. However, not all backlinks are created equal. While the importance of TIER I backlinks (those direct references from high-quality and authoritative websites) is well known, TIER II backlinks often remain in the shadows. These backlinks, however, can be the invisible backbone of your SEO strategy or, if mishandled, a wolf in sheep's clothing..

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is Linkbroker – a marketplace or a platform?
A marketplace you run yourself. You see the publisher, its traffic data, and the final price, and you book the placement in your account. If you would rather hand it over, our team plans and runs the campaign for you – same catalog, same prices.
What can the Linkfinder AI do?
It scores every publisher in the catalog against your project: your domain, your topic, your budget. Instead of working through lists, you get a ranked shortlist and decide from there. Free with your account.
Can I connect Linkbroker to my own AI tool?
Yes. Our MCP connection lets you research publishers, set up projects, and prepare placements from Claude, ChatGPT, or your own setup. Currently in beta and free with your account.
Do you also work as an agency, or is it self-service only?
Both, and you choose per project. Book through the marketplace yourself, or hand the campaign to our team. Either way there is no contract lock-in.
What exactly does the best price guarantee cover?
Every publisher in the catalog. Find the same placement cheaper somewhere else and we match the price.
How fast do placements go live?
Usually 2 to 5 days, depending on the publisher – and that holds for larger orders too.
7. Do you have a partner or affiliate program?
(erst ab /partner/-Launch) Ja, wer lieber empfiehlt, verdient mit.
How much do backlinks cost?
Prices are per publisher and visible before you book, next to the traffic and spam score. Placements start at $100, mid-tier media sit in the low four figures – a placement on MSN currently lists at $1,100 – and the biggest names go well beyond that, like $8,200 on Forbes.com. Traffic, topic, and the editorial effort behind the article set the price, and the best price guarantee applies to every booking.
How many backlinks do I need?
There is no universal number. What decides it is the gap between your site and the pages already ranking for your target keyword – how many referring domains they have, and how fast they are gaining new ones. Check the top results for your keyword and build at a pace that matches them, rather than buying to a fixed number. Our team will look at it with you before your first booking, free of charge.
Is buying backlinks safe?
Google's guidelines target manipulative link schemes: spam domains, no real readers, unnatural spikes. A placement in a publication people actually read is a different thing. We check every publisher against 20+ metrics including traffic history and spam score, your placement sits inside an editorial article, and we build at your project's pace – no ranking risk from volume spikes.

7. Do you have a partner or affiliate program?
(erst ab /partner/-Launch) Ja, wer lieber empfiehlt, verdient mit.
White-label reporting?
Yes. Reports as PDFs with your logo and client name, without Linkbroker branding.
What does it cost – does my margin hold?
Best price guarantee on every publisher, prices visible before you order. If you'd rather refer than resell, the referral program pays you.
Multiple client projects in parallel?
Yes. Every client gets their own project with budget, briefing, and reporting.
Are there volume terms?
Yes. If you order regularly across multiple client projects, you get volume terms – your margin grows with your volume.

Why doesn't our content rank even though it's good?
Usually it's authority that's missing, not quality. Google weighs content from young or weak domains lower – backlinks from topically relevant, strong domains close exactly that gap.
How do we get into "top tools" listicles?
Through listicle placements: we place your product in existing and new comparison articles with relevant publishers. You provide the product facts and see the draft before publication.
Does this bring visibility in ChatGPT and co.?
AI systems cite brands that appear in authoritative sources. Brand mentions and digital PR raise the odds of being named in AI answers – nobody can guarantee it, and we won't either.
What does it cost?
Free account, per-publisher pricing visible before you order, best price guarantee. You only pay for what you order.

Do you work with my industry?
We work with finance, insurance, health, and legal, among others. Whether and how we cover your vertical is what the first call clarifies – honestly, before you spend budget.
Why a consultation instead of ordering right away?
Because in sensitive industries, the environment decides impact and risk. The first call takes 30 minutes, is free and non-binding – then you decide.
Do I see every publisher and text before publication?
Yes. The publisher shortlist and the draft always go to you first – nothing goes live without your approval.
How discreet is the collaboration?
No public client listing without your approval, a dedicated contact person, direct communication.

How fast does it work?
Ranking effects realistically show after 3–6 months, depending on your starting point and competition. Anyone promising faster guarantees is selling you something.
Which works better – backlinks or digital PR?
Different jobs: backlinks build the ranking foundation for specific pages, digital PR and brand mentions build brand, reach, and AI visibility. For scale-ups, the mix wins almost every time.
Can we start small and scale later?
Yes. Free account, you pay per order. Volume can be increased at any time – the platform handles single placements just like bulk orders.
Do we need on-page work first?
If your tech setup or content isn't solid, link budget evaporates. We'll tell you honestly before you order – link building works when the foundation is right.

What are local citations and why do I need them?
Listings of your business across directories and portals – with identical name, address, and phone number. Google uses that consistency as a trust signal to recommend you in Maps and local search; conflicting data costs visibility.
I have multiple locations – does that work?
Yes. Each location gets its own set of listings, managed centrally through the platform. Free account, transparent per-service pricing before you order, no retainer, no contract lock-in.
How long until I see results?
Listings go live within a few weeks. Visibility effects in Google Maps and local search realistically take 3–6 months, depending on local competition.
Do I need any technical skills?
No. You enter your business details once and we handle the rest. If questions come up, support is there to help.
