Editorial Integrity Audit
Before expanding editorial reach, purge existing authority leaks. Growth in news site authority is impossible if link equity is diverted to defunct URLs or diluted by association with spammy, irrelevant domains.
News Ecosystem Seeding
Establish your news publication within essential, high-trust industry directories and journalistic platforms. This creates foundational 'Seed Links' that signal editorial credibility to search engines and industry peers.
Evergreen Content as Link Magnets
Develop 'Passive Link Bait' assets—static, in-depth resources that journalists, bloggers, and researchers will naturally cite as authoritative references in their own reporting and analysis.
Proprietary Data-Led Investigations
Leverage your unique newsgathering capabilities and platform data to uncover stories that journalists and researchers cannot ignore. Data-led investigative journalism is the fastest route to earning 'Tier 1' (DR 80+) backlinks from major news outlets and academic institutions.
Expert Contributor Placements
Shift focus from broad syndication to strategic 'Expert Contributor' placements on high-authority, niche-relevant platforms. Prioritize publications with significant organic reach and editorial rigor.

The 'Better News' Campaign

Curated Resource Page Infiltration
Secure prominent placements on high-authority 'News Resources,' 'Media Lists,' or 'Research Tools' pages maintained by industry associations, universities, or influential organizations.
Expert Community Engagement
Build organic authority and discoverability within high-trust community spaces such as professional journalism forums, academic discussion groups, and relevant subreddits.
The 'Shared Story' Multiplier
Incentivize your readership and contributing sources to act as organic amplifiers by sharing their engagement or the publication's content across their networks.
Editorial Authority Maintenance
Authority is not static; it requires continuous monitoring and adaptation. Conduct annual audits to ensure your publication's standing remains dominant against evolving competitors.
