Backlink quality checklist: relevance, editorial fit, traffic, link attributes, and rejection rules before a host is approved. Distinct from quality-control-link-building. English GP from $125. Get a Quote or Order from $125. English guest posts from $125 to $450. Dual path: get a quote or order a packaged DR band in the client portal.
What this checklist is — and what the QC doorway already covers
This URL is the buyer checklist you run before you send a destination. Quality-control link building is how we refuse a host after you brief us. Publisher quality standards is the acceptance spec the host has to clear. High-quality backlinks is the quality doorway. Four titles. Do not treat them as one page.
Run the list on the host you were offered: does a person already write for the audience you want, is the archive older than a new theme, can you see referring-domain traffic without a marketplace badge, and will the intended link sit in the body with an honest attribute. Name exclusions up front — PBNs, sitewide links, and inventory bought for another geo.
English guest posts stay on the published card when the destination is ordinary. Dual path stays visible: Get a Quote when the host class is still unclear, or Order from $125 when you already know the band.
Who this quality checklist is for
Buyers inspecting a host they were offered
Run the list before you send a destination. It is not a downloadable quality-score SKU.
In-house SEO writing exclusions
Name PBNs, sitewide links, and geos you will not mix. We refuse a bad host instead of filling a quota.
Agencies who need the buyer list, not the spec
The acceptance spec lives on publisher quality standards. This URL stays the pre-purchase list.
How this brief actually runs
01
Lock the destination and the constraint
URL, language, geo, and whether the page is ordinary English GP or a quoted vertical. We will not mix leftovers across geos.
02
Shortlist hosts, then QC
Audience and archive first, then DataForSEO spam and toxic-domain checks. Marketplace sheets get rejected here.
03
Pitch a person, write for that host
A human contacts the editor. The draft matches the publication — not a templated 10-tips blast.
04
Live URL, index report, replace if it drops
You get DR, traffic, and anchor. Typical TAT about two weeks, 20-day maximum on standard DR work.
Pre-purchase checklist — run this before you send a destination
- 01
The host already publishes for the audience you want — not a footer city swap
- 02
The archive has real articles, not a new theme on a farm
- 03
Referring-domain traffic is visible to a human, not only a marketplace badge
- 04
The intended link is contextual in the body, with an honest follow or sponsored attribute
- 05
You can name exclusions: PBNs, sitewide links, leftover inventory from another geo
- 06
A dropped live URL has a replacement path — not a “good luck” invoice
- 07
The destination is ordinary English GP ($125–$450) or a quoted / Enquire rail
- 08
If the host class is still unclear, send the destination on Get a Quote before you order a band
What this page will not invent
We will not print a fake win rate, a 68-hour SLA, or a secret menu that undercuts pricing. A backlink quality checklist you can use before you send a destination on this desk is fulfilment, not a ranking package. Outreach is 100% manual from Australia, Singapore, and the Philippines. Hosts are QC’d in DataForSEO before approval. You get a live URL plus DR, traffic, and anchor (Ahrefs and Semrush as metrics, never as claimed clients). Typical TAT is about two weeks, 20-day maximum on standard DR work. If the live link drops, we replace it. No monthly minimum.
This page is the brief for the path you typed.
