seo-backlink-prospecting

What problem does it solve?

It prevents low-quality, high-risk “free backlink” attempts by turning backlink discovery into a manual, policy-aware qualification funnel that produces an outreach-ready prospect brief instead of a risky spam spray.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured prospect funnel: Organizes backlink opportunities by category (reclamation, resource pages, broken links, journalist requests, communities, aggregators, niche directories) with a clear risk-adjusted ordering.
• Per-prospect qualification rubric: Forces concrete checks for topical fit, real traffic signals, editorial intent, outbound link quality, indexing/ranking viability, page context, anchor/rel naturalness, reachability, cost transparency, penalty history, and velocity contribution.
• Google link-spam guardrails + 2026 citation lens: Encodes hard “kill rules” around paid/automated/untrusted link patterns and emphasizes visibility sources that matter for AI-search citations (e.g., community engagement and brand mention reclamation).

Quick Start

Use the skill for an active backlink campaign by asking your AI to generate a prioritized backlink prospect list after your niche and target audience are defined, while applying the qualification rubric and excluding forbidden categories.
