Why ExceLinks

You approve every link. Always.

Link building is the most important part of SEO, so we put all of it in your hands.

Your weekly approval queue 3 to review

Say yes or no to every link, before it’s built.

Every week, we send you a shortlist of sites with the numbers that matter. Approve the ones you like, reject the rest. Go ahead, try the buttons.

You only pay for links you approve. No surprise invoices, ever.

How it works

Four steps. You’re in control of all of them.

Click through each step, or just watch it play. Nothing happens without your sign-off.

Step 01

Find your key pages

We dig into your site or you just hand us the list and pin down the pages that bring in revenue. Every link we build points at those pages. No wasted links on pages that don’t sell.

Case study · Confidential Client

A link mix built to rank and convert.

For a fast-growing SaaS marketplace (shared under NDA), we mixed two kinds of links: authority links on SaaS sites to lift rankings, and listicle spots that send ready-to-buy traffic. Average authority: DR 75. Hover the chart to explore the mix.

What sold me was how much stays in our hands. Every site goes into a shared sheet first, we approve, we reject, nothing goes live without us. After years of agencies just sending a PDF at the end of the month, this felt like the first time we actually knew what we were paying for.

Questions

The things buyers always ask.

Always, that’s our whole model. Every week you get a shortlist of confirmed sites with the numbers that matter. Approve the ones you like, reject the rest. You never pay for a link you didn’t say yes to, and there’s no surprise report at the end of the month.

Never. Every link starts with a real pitch to a real editor, on a site with real readers. We don’t touch private blog networks, link marketplaces, or anything else that could put your domain at risk.

That’s the whole point of doing it this way. Our links sit on real, relevant pages with real traffic, so to Google, they look exactly like what they are: editorial mentions. In seven years, we’ve had zero penalties across all clients, and our links hold through core updates.

Our founder, Mo, personally reviews every campaign strategy. Day to day, you work with one dedicated account manager who knows your project inside out, not a shared inbox, not a ticket queue.

Three filters: the site must be relevant to your niche, it must have real organic traffic (not just a good-looking DR score), and it must be a site you’d be proud to show your boss. If a site fails any of the three, we skip it, and you can always reject anything we shortlist.

Links usually get indexed within 2–4 weeks. Rankings typically start moving around month two, and the biggest gains come between months four and eight, as authority builds up on your key pages. Anyone promising page one in 30 days is selling you something else.

Yes. Guest posts and editorial pieces are written by our team, matched to each site’s style and audience. You don’t need to prepare anything, though if you have content or research worth pitching, even better. We’re happy to build the campaign around it.

No long-term lock-in. You approve links in batches and pay for what you approve, so you stay in control of both budget and pace. Most clients stay because the results compound, 94% are still with us after six months, not because a contract makes them.

Yes — a good part of our work is white-label link building for agencies. You get fully branded reports and clean fulfilment, so you can resell our links under your name. Your clients never hear about us.

SaaS, B2B, fintech and ecommerce, plus local services like plumbers, law firms and travel, 40+ niches in total. If it’s a real business, we can build for it. We just don’t take adult, casino or grey-market sites.
