Domain authority you earn lasts. Domain authority you rent from a link farm doesn't.
The link-building industry has a cheap-scheme problem. PBNs, spam outreach, and purchased links produce short-term position movement and long-term Google penalties. Solqiro builds backlinks the only way that survives: earned, relevant, and from real domains.
The problem most businesses in your situation face.
Low domain authority is the invisible ceiling on your SEO performance. You can have technically perfect pages and well-targeted keywords, but if your domain doesn't carry enough authority relative to your competitors, you won't rank. The problem: most link-building services in this price tier are selling shortcuts that work until they don't. Cheap link schemes get sites penalties. Recovering from a manual action or algorithmic penalty costs far more than building a clean backlink profile from the start.
Exactly what this engagement covers.
How we run this engagement.
Before building new links, we assess what's already there. Toxic links from past schemes can suppress rankings. We identify anything worth disavowing before layering on new acquisition.
A link from a genuine industry publication carries more authority signal than a link from a generic "top 10 agencies" directory. We define the criteria for a good link specific to your domain.
We identify specific domains worth targeting — not from a list-buy, but from manual research against your criteria. Every prospect is assessed for editorial standards, traffic, and topical relevance before outreach begins.
Outreach is personalised and pitches something genuinely useful to the target publication. Links acquired this way pass full authority and carry no penalty risk. We will not build links from any source we wouldn't show you in the monthly report.
What this looks like in practice.
Domain rating of 18 vs. competitors averaging 42. Page one rankings on target terms required domains with DR 35+. 14-month link building engagement: 38 editorially earned links from relevant publications and resource pages. Domain rating reached 36. Site went from zero page one rankings for primary terms to ranking in positions 2–7 for 11 target keywords.
Representative engagement. Individual results vary based on industry, competition, existing site authority, and budget.
Why Link Building from Solqiro.
Every link is in the monthly report — domain, URL, anchor text, and the context of how it was acquired. Nothing is hidden.
Toxic links can suppress rankings. We clean before we build.
Ten editorially earned links from relevant industry publications produce more lasting authority than 200 directory submissions.
Sites that have been penalised understand the cost. If you've been burned before, we can audit the damage and build a recovery plan.
What this costs.
Link building retainers start at $700/month, covering prospect research, outreach, and typically 4–8 earned placements per month depending on niche and domain competitiveness. One-time backlink audits start at $300.
