What we cannot promise
We cannot promise dofollow links or a number of links. Journalists decide what they publish and how they link. We always follow up on unlinked mentions, but we cannot guarantee they turn into links.
Sometimes it takes a few campaigns to get results. Sometimes one campaign hits and brings more links than several others combined.

Digital PR service: FAQs
What is digital PR?
It is earning coverage in online publications by giving journalists something worth writing about: a new number, a timely story or a useful study. The coverage brings links, brand mentions and readers.
What does one campaign cost?
EUR 1,000 per campaign. That covers the idea, the research, the article and visuals, outreach to journalists, follow-ups and the final report.
Which campaigns do you run?
Reactive campaigns tied to a recent event in your industry, and data-driven campaigns built on research. We pick the one that fits your story.
Why is the study published on my website?
So the coverage and links point to your site. We need you to approve the draft and publish it quickly, because a story loses value as it gets older.
Why do you send the emails and not me?
We pitch journalists from our own email accounts, so your domain and inbox reputation are never at risk.
Do you guarantee links?
No. We cannot promise dofollow links or a number of links, because journalists decide what they publish and how they link. We follow up on every nofollow link and every unlinked mention to get as much value as possible.
What happens when a site mentions my brand without a link?
We always do extra follow-up outreach to every site that mentions your brand without linking, and ask them to add a link to your study. We cannot guarantee they will, because the editor decides, but we always send the follow-up.
How many campaigns do I need?
Sometimes it takes a few campaigns to get results. Sometimes one campaign hits and brings more links than several others combined. You see the results of each campaign in the report before you decide on the next one.
How does this help with AI search?
AI answers draw on third-party sources. An Ahrefs study of 75,000 brands found that brand mentions across the web correlate with visibility in Google AI Overviews far more strongly than backlinks do. That is a correlation, not a guarantee. Read the study.
How much do digital PR services cost?
€1,000 per campaign. Many agencies charge a monthly retainer; we charge per campaign, so you know the full cost before we start.
What is the difference between digital PR and link building?
Link building asks site owners for a link on an existing page. Digital PR gives journalists a new story, so you earn coverage on news and media sites, plus links and brand mentions that AI tools read.
How long does a digital PR campaign take?
Most of the coverage comes in the weeks after outreach starts, while the story is fresh. Data-led studies can keep getting cited for months after that.
