Campaigns are ongoing, charged on a monthly basis. We offer two types of publication Supreme & Ultimate (separated in our HiveRank system, bespoke to your industry). You can choose the volume, with the minimum being one per month. Ultimate Campaigns are priced as a retainer.

You will have access to a shared workspace where you will be able to see the progress of each deliverable, via a series of stages. You will also receive updates throughout the campaign, explaining metric increases and other vital information from publications.

Each website is contacted independently, and each editor works to their own time frame – both in terms of replying, and publishing content. For that reason we cannot ever guarantee a turnaround time, but taking the average number of days across every publication Hive19 has ever produced, it is around 38 days from initial contact.

This really depends on the industry, the volume and the history of the domain. Clients with smaller profiles will see larger gains quicker, whilst more established clients are likely to see sustained growth within higher volume campaigns.

Hive19 identifies and assesses over 25,000 websites every month. Using your target key terms and creatively mapping customer groups, we will find sites in your country, your industry and your niche. From there, our HiveRank system, a weighting system considering over 45 metrics and manual checks will determine the suitability for each publication.

This is very important, as an under-optimised website will not see the full benefit of powerful links. Building high quality links that aren’t paid for requires linkable assets, and that means the first place to start any campaign is on your own website. We will learn this before we begin, and wouldn’t start a campaign before your website is ready to earn maximum return on investment.

With our exclusive HiveRank® system.

Each campaign gets a bespoke Register, relevant to your website. Whilst DR, DA, TF, country level traffic are some of the pillars, the relevancy to your website is unique. So, what makes an Ultimate publication in the Fintech industry is very unlikely to be considered a different industry, such as medical or property.

The HiveRank system is a complex software that uses uptodate statistics from API data taken from Ahrefs, Moz, Majestic, ScreamingFrog – and completed with a series of manual assessment checks.

For editorials, no. For advertorials, listings and packages – we share the information with you to determine if it is a desirable marketing spend.

Working with real businesses, we are not buying links. We are providing quality content that helps the third party website to rank for terms that align with our client. Therefore, whilst we cannot guarantee that the link will be permanent – we are confident that there is no reason for the site to remove it once published. We are proud to guarantee publications will be live for a minimum of 12 months.

Over 95% of all links ever built by Hive19 are followed. We do not guarantee that links will be followed, but with thousands built – it’s safe to assume the majority will be followed. A 100% followed link profile is unnatural, so the occasional no-follow links from an equally powerful and topically relevant domain is good as part of a natural backlink profile, in our eyes.

The difficulty when outsourcing your link building is understanding whether the agency you hire will deliver quality links or potentially harmful ones. We have put together some useful eBooks to help, one of which is Questions to ask your Link Builder
