SharedTEAMS pricing estimates include a comparable value based on average marketing agency rates (Credo report) or the total cost of an in-house marketing manager, including salary and benefits. While actual costs may vary by location and business needs, these estimates offer a good-faith benchmark to highlight potential savings. We encourage you to compare options to see the value SharedTEAMS delivers.

Estimate Considerations

At SharedTEAMS, our link building services are focused on boosting your website’s authority and search engine rankings through high-quality, relevant backlinks. We begin by developing a tailored strategy that aligns with your SEO goals, identifying reputable websites and opportunities that offer genuine value and relevance to your audience.

Our estimates cover outreach planning, prospect research, pitch development, and relationship management with publishers. We also include time for content coordination, link placement tracking, and ongoing performance analysis. This ethical, strategic approach helps our members build a strong backlink profile that supports long-term SEO success and organic visibility.

Project Process

Throughout this project, our Website Team develops a link-building strategy and carries it out. We collaborate with you to determine what assets, keywords, and links to promote, we well as what targets to reach out to. Then we reach out to those targets on your behalf on a recurring basis.

We aim to target those who are likely to link to your website, as well as some high-value targets, such as national news sites and highly influential bloggers.

performance

Link building is ideal for businesses in highly competitive industries but can benefit all businesses that rely on website traffic for their business success.

Having quality assets others can link to is necessary for an effective link-building program. This may include blog articles, reports and data, new products or services, tools, infographics, videos, or other assets. These assets serve as the “hook” to get others to link to your website.

Remember that targets will only create backlinks if they found your assets valuable. It takes a lot of effort to create backlinks (compared to liking or sharing a social media post), so assets need to benefit the targets more than your business.

It’s important that these assets are not lead magnets because requiring information from a visitor would deter them from accessing the asset, which could lead to high bounce rates that would harm SEO.

Please note that it can take several months for an SEO program to show improved ranking and increased backlinks.

Additional Considerations

Consider the following as you begin this project. Our team is happy to collaborate with you on the best approach.

  • What assets do you already have that you want to promote in this effort?
  • Do you have any backlink targets in mind?
  • Do you have an email address dedicated to media and similar inquiries? E.g. media@yourbusiness.com
  • What are your goals for this project? E.g. Increase organic traffic (in an effort to boost sales), increase social shares and build social reputability, establish credibility in your industry, or build relationships in your niche.

Project Phases

Our team will execute this project in defined phases and we will keep you updated on progress within each phase of development, giving you the ability to provide feedback, direction or collaborate with our team throughout every step of the process.

Additional Considerations

During this initial phase, our team reviews your Member Profile, project details, and your goals for this project. If you don’t have specific goals for this project, we recommend using your industry-specific marketing strategy to develop your goals.

We also request access to your business’s media email account for the purpose of contacting backlink targets on your behalf.

Strategic Program Overview

During the next phase, we collaborate with you to develop the strategy for this project, which includes the following pieces:

  • Your overarching goals for link building
  • What assets will be sent to targets that they can link to
  • What types of backlinks we’ll aim for
  • Who we’ll target for backlinks
  • What keywords we’ll work on ranking higher

It’s important that we narrow in on the types of people that will be interested in your assets and business, and therefore are likely to link to your website. At this phase, we keep this broad. We will determine individual targets in phase 3.

As part of this strategy, we will recommend what types of backlinks will benefit your website the most, which may include:

  • Links to your homepage
  • Links to deep pages, such as product or service pages
  • Links containing your brand name
  • Links containing the keywords you’re targeting

At the end of this phase, we present our strategic recommendations to you. We also request access to a business email account to contact targets on your behalf.

Recurring Monthly Updates

On a recurring basis, our team begins link-building outreach based on the plan created for this project in Phase 2, which includes identifying individual targets and reaching out to them on a recurring basis. All contact activity is documented.

Throughout the course of this project, we may make adjustments to the link-building strategy based on interactions and requests from targets.

As new assets are developed in other projects, our team will collaborate in the background to determine whether they would be a good fit to incorporate those assets into our efforts. If you develop assets in-house, please share them with us.

We send you updates on a recurring basis, at least monthly, and keep you updated on progress.

Our team may create project recommendations to create assets that will be used within this project.
