COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you start.

See all questions

How many links can I get?

Each partner-site article is intended for a partner's website and includes one agreed link to your page. On the free plan you start one article per placement credit: earn credits by publishing partners' articles, or buy one when you need it. Starter lets you start one article a month; Growth lets you start four. Agency plans share ten or twenty-five across clients. An allowance or credit is used when you submit an article proposal, even before it is published. Hosting someone else's article on your site never uses your allowance.

Is there a fee for each link?

There is a price per article you start, not per link. A placement credit is CAD $29, or CAD $39 with assisted writing, and you earn credits free by publishing partners' articles. Monthly plans bring the price down: Growth works out to about CAD $12.49 per article started, and agency plans cost less per article. Assisted writing on its own is CAD $20 per article.

How do I find websites to exchange links with?

Open Opportunities in your dashboard. Each one shows the niche, city, province and topics, and the website address stays private until the host accepts your proposed topic. Opportunities near you and on shared topics score higher and are listed first.

Are these links only link swaps? Aren't reciprocal links bad?

Not only swaps. Each partner-site article is its own agreement: the host publishes a relevant article with one link to the page the other business chose. You decide who to work with. You can host each other, spread exchanges across several partners, or run a loop of three businesses, and the platform neither requires nor blocks reciprocal pairs. Keep volumes reasonable and relevant to your customers, and remember that we do not promise ranking effects.
