Turn Brand Mentions Into Links
People already write about you without linking. Turn those mentions into links.
Why this matters
The mention and the goodwill already exist. So a short, polite email asking for a link works better than almost any other tactic.
✓ How to do it
- Find mentions with the searches below.
- Set a free Google Alert for your brand to catch future ones.
- Email the author. Thank them, and ask if they'll link the mention to your site.
Done whenA Google Alert is set, and every unlinked mention found has been emailed.
