SaaS Link Building
Links that support the pages your revenue depends on
SaaS companies cannot rely on brand to get high search results. The comparison pages, integration pages, feature pages and blog content of SaaS companies face competition from rivals who create and link new content every month. Rankaim is a trusted marketplace for guest posts and link placements, where SaaS teams can buy spots directly at the listed price. The purchase is protected by escrow. The links are checked for twelve months after they appear.
Why SaaS teams buy links differently
- Relevance beats metrics. Relevance matters more than numbers. A DR 40 link from a marketing, sales or DevTools publication usually helps a SaaS page more than a DR 70 link, from an unrelated general site. With Rankaim you can filter the marketplace by niche and review every site before you pay.
- Speed matters. Speed is crucial. Launch windows, funding announcements and category races do not wait for a three month outreach pipeline. Marketplace placements are shown with availability. So an order that is placed today is processed today.
- Budgets are accountable. Budgets are clear. Every site shows its price before you order. There is no outreach fee. Rankaim's flat 20 percent fee is taken from the publisher's side. You pay the listed price. (See how our pricing works.)
What you can order
Guest posts
I think original articles are published on trusted, niche-relevant sites and your link is placed naturally within the text. This is best for supporting blog posts, guides and resource pages.
Niche edits (link insertions)
I find that links are inserted into existing articles, even older pieces that have verified publish dates. This is best, for promoting product pages, feature pages and comparison pages that need authority immediately.
Fully managed link building
I would suggest you hand this over to our managed service, which will carry out the audit, strategy, ordering and reporting for you each month.
How ordering works
- Browse and shortlist. Look through trusted sites that match your niche, check their domain rating, traffic numbers and pricing to find the fit.
- Order at the listed price. Your payment is kept safe in escrow. The publisher only gets paid once your link is live and confirmed.
- Approve before it goes live. Your exact sentence is used for the insertion. You approve it before publishing. Guest post content is also confirmed first.
- Get the live URL. You'll receive the working link and all placement details directly in your dashboard.
- 12-Month monitoring. If the link is removed or changed within 12 months, the monitoring SLA ensures a replacement or refund based on the guarantee terms.
What we reject (so your links stay safe)
- Private blog networks (PBNs) and link farms
- Sites with manipulated metrics, or those using expired domains or scraped content
- Pages created only to sell links with no real visitors or value
- Any site we wouldn't trust with our own money
Every publisher goes through a manual review before being listed and all listings are regularly checked against our vetting standards.
SaaS link building: common questions
How many links does a SaaS site need?
It depends on how far you are from the pages that rank higher. A good starting point is to add a few links each month focusing on one or two important pages. Add more only if the rankings improve. Links should be chosen for quality and relevance rather than for quantity.
Guest posts or niche edits for SaaS?
Niche edits work faster because the page already exists and is indexed. Guest posts give you control over the surrounding content. SaaS teams use a mix: they use niche edits for product pages and guest posts for content. See the comparison on buy backlinks.
Are the links dofollow?
Links are listed with their type before you place an order and dofollow links are covered by the dofollow guarantee.
How is this different from hiring an agency?
There is no retainer and no hidden per-link markup in an invoice. You can see each site and each price before you commit and escrow means you only pay when placements are delivered, not for effort.
Can Rankaim handle it end-to-end?
Yes. The managed link building service covers strategy through reporting if your team does not have time to self-serve.
Start with the pages that make you money
Look through the marketplace, choose sites that fit your niche, and place your first order at the listed price. The order will be protected by escrow from the moment you place the order until the live link is delivered.
