Link Building and Outreach at SEOquick
Most link budgets are spent blind: the marketplace card shows impressive numbers, and what is behind them becomes visible only after the invoice is paid. We vet every platform on its real traffic and on the queries it ranks for itself, write the material for each placement in-house, and show the estimate line by line. No crowd links, no PBNs.
Packages
We sell work, not individual links: strategy, platform selection, content and placements together. The budget for the platforms themselves is already inside the price — nothing is billed on top.
| Package | Per month | Links | What it buys |
|---|---|---|---|
| Start | $800 | 5–6 | marketplace placements, a niche without heavy competition |
| Business | $1,200 | 8–9 | marketplace plus outreach, two or three high-trust placements per cycle |
| Maximum | $1,600 | 11–12 | outreach and high-trust platforms, multilingual projects |
The number of links is a range, not a promise: it depends on which platforms suit your topic. A high-trust publication costs more than three marketplace placements, and sometimes one of them is worth more than five.
What one link is made of
| Line | Cost |
|---|---|
| Finding and vetting the platform | $30 |
| The material we write for it | $45–60 |
| The placement itself | $33–67 in Ukraine, up to $114 for high-trust |
Platform prices are public — you can look them up in the marketplace catalogue and check every one. We do not hide a margin inside the total, and we do not move the purchase into a separate invoice labelled “plus $500 and up”, the way part of the market does.
Markets we work in
Ukraine is where the rates above come from. The method does not change across markets; the cost of a placement and the shape of the local market do.
| Market | How it works | Placement |
|---|---|---|
| Ukraine | marketplaces plus direct outreach | $33–67, up to $114 for high-trust |
| Poland | no link marketplaces at all, only talking to editors | roughly twice as much |
| Bulgaria | small market, few suitable platforms | roughly twice as much |
| US and Western Europe | strict editorial standards, more refusals | $100–300 by published rate cards |
Poland. There are no link marketplaces — you cannot buy a placement from a catalogue, every one of them is arranged by email. For the furniture store lectus24.pl we ran manual outreach to up to 80 domains; together with rebuilding the catalogue from 70 to 170 categories that produced 245,257 visits a month and positions 1–3 on priority queries.
Bulgaria. A small market with few platforms for most topics, so direct outreach is the only route. It is also where something happened that is worth saying out loud: one of our Bulgarian projects reached the top on commercial queries with no external links at all — on structure and technical quality alone. That is the honest answer to whether links are always needed. They are not, and we will say so before taking your money.
US and Western Europe. Placements cost several times more, editors are harder to convince, and an email that says “please publish our article” does not work — the piece has to be worth publishing on its own. The package budget stays the same, but it buys fewer links: at $800 that is three or four placements rather than five or six.
Strategy is priced separately
Before anything is placed, we need to know which pages to strengthen, with which anchors and at what pace. That is one-off work — $200 to $600 depending on the niche. It stays with you: even if you leave after the first month, the plan and the donor list are yours.
How the Ukrainian link market is built, what a link costs at different agencies and how to vet a platform before paying — I covered that separately: what a backlink actually costs.
