At Content Guppy, we specialize in SaaS link building<\/a> and have gotten some really amazing links for our clients.<\/p>\n

In fact, our link building strategy<\/a> centers around 3 main criteria:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. They\u2019re a DR 60 +.  We want to make sure that the sites we get links to have a good domain authority.<\/li>\n
  2. They have a minimum traffic of 1,000 visitors per month.  A site with organic traffic is key to having a high quality backlink<\/li>\n
  3. They\u2019re all on SaaS sites and Agency sites.  Meaning we don\u2019t accept links from link farms, content farms, affiliate sites, or anything that looks remotely \u201cspammy\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Some of our links include:<\/p>\n

    Qualtrics.com:  DR 91 and 1.5 million visitors per month.<\/p>\n

    Glassdoor.com:  DR 91 and 17.5 million visitors per month<\/p>\n

    Dribbble.com:  DR 93 and 6.5 million visitors per month<\/p>\n

    Each of these links were acquired<\/a> with one of the following link building strategies mentioned in this post.<\/p>\n

    Critically, link building<\/a> for SaaS companies can have a direct impact on the MRR of the company.<\/p>\n

    I was on a team that helped a bootstrapped SaaS company increase organic traffic to over 400,000 visitors per month AND grow to over $10 million in ARR<\/a> on the back of SEO and link building. <\/p>\n

    But when you’re getting links for your SaaS site, you can’t just get any links<\/a>. In this guide, we’ve included the best practices and tools<\/a> that you can use to acquire high-quality links.   <\/p>\n

    Link Insertion for SaaS Companies<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Link insertion is the act of reaching out to other websites in hopes that they will add a link to their already existing content.  And it’s one of our favorite ways to do SaaS link building<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    This is the exact process we use most often to find and acquire some of the best links<\/a> for our clients.<\/p>\n

    Here\u2019s how it works.<\/p>\n

    Source Articles<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    One of the most important aspects of any link building strategy is to find a list of sites who might want to include our link in their article.<\/p>\n

    To do that, we use Ahrefs Content Explorer.  <\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    Then we apply all of our filters.<\/p>\n
