Link Building & Digital PR for a B2B SaaS — Earn Real Editorial Backlinks (no PBNs)
Worldwide
We are a B2B SaaS company in the sales-automation space. Our customers are coaches, consultants, creators, and agencies who sell high-ticket offers directly through social conversations. We are early but real: live product, paying customers, active development. We have a content problem that is already solved, and an authority problem that is not. We publish 30+ genuinely good long-form guides. Our on-page SEO is clean, our internal linking was just rebuilt, and Google Search Console confirms our pages are now being discovered properly. Bing Webmaster Tools gives us exactly **one** site-wide recommendation: that the site lacks inbound links from high-quality domains. Our backlink profile is effectively empty, and the domain is only a few months old. So the job is narrow and honest: **help us earn links from real sites that real people read.** ### What we want - A **prospecting list** of genuinely relevant sites: coaching and creator-business publications, sales and SDR blogs, agency-operator newsletters, marketing-ops sites, social-selling communities. - **Outreach and relationship building** that gets us placed — guest contributions, expert quotes, inclusion in roundups and "best tools" lists, podcast appearances for our founders. - Help shaping **linkable assets**. Our product generates real aggregate data in our niche that nobody else has published. We want someone who can tell us which angle journalists and bloggers will actually pick up. - Clear reporting: site, URL, anchor, live date, and why that site was worth it. ### What we do NOT want Please do not apply if your process involves any of the following. We will check. - PBNs, link farms, or "1,000 backlinks for $50" packages. - Sites that exist only to sell links — no real audience, no organic traffic, a "write for us" page and little else. - Bulk directory submissions, or comment and forum spam. - Guaranteed link counts at a fixed DR. We would rather have 3 real placements a month than 30 fake ones. We are a live business with paying customers. A penalty would cost us far more than slow progress. ### Must-have - Demonstrable **B2B SaaS or startup** link building experience. - A portfolio of **live placements you personally earned** — send URLs, we will look at them. - Comfortable being told "no, that site isn't good enough" and adjusting. - Straight talk about timelines. We know this takes quarters, not weeks. ### Nice-to-have - Experience in the coaching / creator-economy / sales-tooling space. - Digital PR background — pitching data stories to journalists. - Podcast booking experience for founders.
