I've been buying links for clients since 2013. Not as a side interest —
as the actual job, every day, for the kind of businesses that notice
immediately when the phone stops ringing.
For most of those years the operation looked exactly like the one I
described at the top of this page. Vendors in a spreadsheet. Placements I
couldn't verify without opening nine tabs. A monthly ritual of stitching
together a client report out of four exports that didn't agree with each
other.
So we started building tools to fix the worst part of the week. Then the
next worst part. The writer came about because I got tired of briefing
freelancers on what was already ranking and getting back something that
ignored it. The rank tracking came about because I wanted the answer to
"did that link do anything" to live in the same place as the link.
None of it was built to be sold. It was built because we needed it, and it
ran our own client programs for years before it had a signup page. That's
the only reason I can show you numbers on this page —
they're the meter readings from our own work, taken off the same machine you'd be using.
What changed is that the prices we buy at are wholesale, and there is no
good reason those should only be available to people who hire us. So now
they're not.
You'd be early, and being early is worth something here — the founding
rate is the whole reason I'm writing this now rather than in a year. What
you get is a machine that has already done a great deal of work, thirty
credits to try it with, and no card field between you and finding out.
