How much should i charge for a backlink?

Hey everyone,

I've been doing link-building through HARO, Connectively, and journalist outreach for a while now. On average, I'm getting about a 20% conversion rate, with backlinks that have a DR around 75 and traffic over 70k.

The thing is, I'm earning more from this side gig than my main job (which isn't saying much since I'm in a third-world country). Now, I'm seriously thinking about making this my full-time gig. But here's where I'm stuck, I have no idea what to charge for these backlinks. I've been working through middlemen and they pay peanuts for the quality of links they are getting, but I feel like I could do better on my own.

I've tried Upwork, but haven't had much success there, and I've had a few clients recently just ghost me after the work was done, which is super frustrating. I'm trying to figure out how to level up in this world. Should I be looking to land a job with an agency (had no luck, got many rejections because they don't hire from my part of the world) or is there a better way to get my own clients directly?

Really need some direction and clarity, and looking forward to your comments.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
