We Don't Chase a DR Number
Domain Authority and Domain Rating are third-party metrics, not Google ranking factors — Ahrefs itself describes DR as its own proprietary popularity score. We optimize for what actually moves rankings.
Relevant Referring Domains
Links from sites that are actually topically connected to your business, not just any domain with a high score.
Real Traffic
Publishers with genuine visitors and active crawl history, not abandoned domains kept alive purely to sell links.
Editorial Relevance
Placements embedded naturally in real content and context, not stuffed into footers, sidebars, or link directories.
Strong Content
Every placement is built around genuinely useful, professionally written content worth linking to in the first place.
Brand Authority
A link profile that builds recognition and trust over time, compounding beyond any single placement.

Industry Link Building FAQs
Do you build backlinks for every industry, or only certain niches?
We build backlinks across SaaS, ecommerce, travel, real estate, and local business, plus most other industries. Target site selection changes by industry — a SaaS company needs different referring domains than a local plumber — but the manual, white-hat placement process stays the same.
How does link building differ for SaaS companies?
SaaS link building leans on software review sites, comparison roundups, and tech and industry blogs where a product would naturally be mentioned or reviewed, since that is where SaaS buyers actually research before purchasing.
How does link building differ for ecommerce stores?
Ecommerce link building focuses on product review blogs, gift guides, niche shopping resource pages, and comparison content — placements that mirror how real shoppers discover and vet products before buying.
Do you offer link building for local businesses?
Yes — local business link building emphasizes local directories, community and neighborhood sites, regional press, and local resource pages that support both organic and local map pack rankings.
Why does industry matter for backlink relevance?
Search engines weigh topical relevance heavily — a link from a directly relevant industry site carries more ranking value than a higher-authority link from an unrelated niche. Matching placements to your industry is part of every LINK-BACK.com campaign, regardless of package tier.
