Had a few people show up for my mini presentation 😅

I've been building backlinks for 17 years, we'll sell over $4.5M of links this year, and I have NEVER seen Google reward authority and quality link signals like they are right now. 🔗

Yet most SEOs STILL buy links that do nothing… because Google neutralizes them.

Here’s my exact SOP for picking links that actually increase rank, ROI and AI visibility:

1 - Ignore Metrics, Do Your Due Diligence
Metrics are EASILY manipulated, even the “organic traffic” inside Ahrefs/SEMRush.

Check link profiles manually. If the site doesn’t rank anything in your niche → the link is a pillow, not power.

2 - Page-Level ROI Test
Before buying ANY link, ask: “How much can this link make me?”

In high-ARPU niches, you can budget links by targeting specific money/supporting pages based on price vs potential return.

3 - Anchor Safety = SERP Reality
Most SEOs choose anchors based on what they want.

Google rewards what the SERP shows is safe.

If the top 10 use:
 • Brand/URL → use brand/URL
 • Soft partials → use soft partials
 • UGC/parasites → stay conservative

Match the consensus. Don’t fight it.

And if competitors have ZERO direct links? Don’t force them unless the individual link has exceptional relevancy/trust.

4 - Outbound Link Neighbourhood Check
If a site leaks outlinks to casinos, CBD, crypto, Viagra — and you’re NOT in those industries, your link is likely devalued.

Google does track link neighbourhoods.

Sit next to trash, you ending up smelling like trash...

5 - Indexation & Editorial Health
Avoid sites that are:
 • Bleeding indexation
 • Losing keywords
 • Publishing AI slop
 • Pushing hundreds of posts with zero rankings

Power sites GROW. Zombie sites DRAIN.

6 - Traffic Stability (6-18 Months)
You don’t want a site that had traffic, you want one that KEEPS it.

Look for: smooth growth, logical seasonality, no update cliffs, no sudden programmatic spikes.

Stability = trust. Trust compounds.

7 - Internal Link Inclusion
A link on a page with no internal links = weak.

A link with supporting internals, topical hubs, and strong navigation delivers 3–10× more power.

Context = equity.

8 - Avoid Orphan Links
If the page has:
 • No internal links in or out
 • No social signals
 • No backlinks
…it’s basically a paid nofollow.

Orphan pages = orphan signals.

9 - The AI Visibility Test
If you want to appear in AI Overviews/model citations, your links must sit inside authoritative, entity-rich context:
- Editorial pages ✔
 - Topical clusters ✔
 - Structured data ✔
 - Strong authorship signals ✔
 - UGC authority domains ✔

In AI SEO, context around the link matters more than the link itself...

In traditional SEO though, most SEOs don’t have a link building problem, they have a link selection problem.

Google isn’t rewarding more links… Google is rewarding better signals.

Fix what you buy → fix what you rank!

That's it for this SOP! BUT, I'll be running a $250 PressWhizz LINK GIVEAWAY to anyone who LIKES+COMMENTS on this post 👇

The EU just launched an antitrust investigation into Google's site reputation abuse policy - Probably the most misguided search policy ever released...

Not allowing ANY third party content is stupid, as if outsourcing has never existed... And the enforcement was inconsistent at best.

This was PR and propaganda to bully publishers into compliance, not to "protect users" - If they really wanted to protect users, they wouldn't have rolled out AI Overviews with no fact checking or verification.

This is going to be very interesting though! Google will likely have to reveal even more of it's search secrets in court if they want to defend this, or they'll have to cancel the policy entirely in the EU.

One way or another, this is at least a small win for the publishers and SEOs that tried to make money the exact same way Google does, with monetization on top of third party content.

Just added PressWhizz to TrustMRR by Marc Lou 👀 
 
Only the verified Stripe revenue, doesn't include PayPal (our main source), wires, crypto etc...

BUT, it does put us at #11 in the past 30 days 😅

At Chiang Mai earlier this year, we had TWO lucky SEOs win $1,000 of link credit from our scratch cards! They were so popular, we had to print more...

We'll be sponsoring a bunch more events next year, including iGB Barcelona, BrightonSEO, SEO Estonia, SBC Lisbon and Chiang Mai again!

We'll be giving away more of these at every event, so make sure you stop by our booth, pick up a card, scratch and see if you'll win $25 - $1,000 in FREE backlinks 🔗

Make sure to follow PressWhizz for more regular updates 🙌

This isn't new SEO, this is the new algorithm...

AI outputs ARE the new SERPs!

The Black Friday Effect! 👀

We did $60k across the whole platform just on Monday...

Just sent the letter of intent for our potential FIRST EVER acquisition at PressWhizz - Only 13 months into the brand existing, and we're already buying six-figure companies 😅

Should be able to make the big announcement next month, so our customers (hopefully YOU) are about to get a whole new tool suite for FREE 👀

And the site comes with one of the largest organic traffic profiles in SEO, and more specifically link building... Which just so happens to be our exact target market!

This isn’t "buying a website", this is injecting a jet engine into PressWhizz...

We’re talking:
- 50k+ monthly SEOs now seeing (and soon being completely integrated into) our ecosystem by default
- Over half a decade of authority + backlinks instantly merging with our growth curve
- A distribution channel that would’ve taken 3-4 years to build

You can grind for reach… Or you can just buy the reach and then build the products on top.

This acquisition basically pulls forward our roadmap by 18-24 months overnight.

In our first full year, we managed to quite easily break $500k/mo! This deal puts us frighteningly close to $1M/mo in 2026...

I’ll share every detail the moment the ink dries! But just know this: We’re not just building a link marketplace anymore. 

We’re building the home for the entire industry to build, buy, monitor, exchange and grow their link building...

And this acquisition is the first domino. 🚀

Remember, TODAY is the LAST DAY you'll be able to get a +10% DEPOSIT BONUS on the platform...

We already have the cheapest & fastest links in SEO, this is your one time of year to get them for even cheaper 🔥

Here’s what that actually means in terms of REAL WORLD ROI FOR YOU, and why you’d be insane to miss it:

Every single month we’re adding 2,000–4,000+ NEW publishers to the PressWhizz marketplace
(1,373 in April alone + another ~1,000 added to private inventory), and that inventory is going to keep skyrocketing because we’ve just launched our upgrade custom outreach tool (sending over 500k emails/mo), hired even more developers and outreach specialists.

So your deposit today isn’t just “credit”…
It’s early access to:
- Cheaper links
- Faster indexing
- Bigger inventory
- Higher authority publishers
- Better topical matching
- The ONLY REAL Entity Stacking Service in SEO
- Best tier 2 links
- The strongest parasite SEO playground on the internet...
- As well as a growing range of FREE, AI-powered SEO Tools that will replace your subscription costs very soon

And here’s the kicker most people still don’t understand… Links haven’t just held value in 2025... They’ve 10× increased in importance!

Google nuked content signals, boosted authority, and shoved everyone into a pay-to-compete authority economy, which is all ultimately powered by link profiles.

(Yes, this is literally confirmed through the algorithm changes & industry analysis.)

Meaning:
If you’re buying links at full price in 2025…
You’re losing.
If your competitors top up today and you don’t…
You’re losing.
If you wait until tomorrow…
You’re losing.

This is the ONLY 12-hour window all year where you can get: The cheapest links → on the fastest system → with the biggest inventory → before the next wave of publishers drops...

And with Google favouring authority sites harder than any time in history, you either build yours now or you watch someone else outrank you for the next 6-18 months.

(Yes… that’s how long authority gaps take to close.)

This isn’t a hype post.

This is math + momentum + market timing.

If you’ve ever trusted my advice before… Load up your account, take the bonus, and set yourself up to win the rest of 2025.

Because tomorrow? The cost goes back up…

🔥 FINAL REMINDER, ONLY HOURS LEFT! 🔥

 PressWhizz’s Black Friday +10% FREE CREDIT BOOST is about to disappear.

If you’re planning to buy links anyway (you should), this is literally free money added straight on top of your balance.

How it works (for the last few hours):
 ➡️ Deposit anything → get +10% instantly
 ➡️ No codes
 ➡️ No limits
 ➡️ No cooldown
 ➡️ Instant link-buying firepower

Examples:
 • $500 → $550
 • $2,000 → $2,200
 • $10,000 → $11,000

If you miss it, it’s gone.
If you deposit now, you lock in 10% more links for the same spend.

⏳ Black Friday ends in a few hours. Final call.

Go top up your PressWhizz dashboard before it shuts off.
