Process
Link building methodology
A repeatable operating system for acquiring relevant backlinks without sacrificing editorial standards or brand safety.
The sequence below is how programmes move from commercial goals to verified placements. Language-market planning for Belgium is embedded in research and qualification — not bolted on at the end.
01
Understand
Business model, audience, language markets, priority URLs, and commercial goals.
02
Research
Map competitors, Belgian and relevant industry publishers, and realistic opportunities.
03
Qualify
Score relevance, editorial suitability, site legitimacy, and brand safety.
04
Outreach
Personalised contact with editors and site owners, not mass templates.
05
Create
Develop useful contributions, assets, or commentary where the placement needs them.
06
Place
Secure contextual editorial placements that help readers as well as discoverability.
07
Verify
Review the live URL, link attributes, surrounding context, and accessibility.
08
Report
Share transparent placement records and notes for the next iteration cycle.
Quality gates
Qualification and verification are non-negotiable. Opportunities that fail relevance, editorial, or legitimacy checks are declined even when a publisher is willing to place a link. Details live in quality standards.
Reporting expectations
Clients receive placement-level records: published URL, referring domain, target URL, anchor text, context notes, publication date, and status. We do not invent performance charts or guarantee ranking movement.
