# SEO Off-Page: Link Building

Guides link building strategy: acquiring quality backlinks to improve domain authority and rankings.

**When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1-2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.

## Scope (Off-Page SEO)

- **Link building**: Acquire backlinks from relevant, authoritative sites
- **Broken link building**: Find broken links on others' sites; suggest your content as replacement
- **Unlinked brand mentions**: Turn mentions into links via outreach
- **Guest posting**: Contribute to relevant publications; earn links
- **Journalist requests**: Respond to #JournoRequest; provide quotes/assets
- **Digital PR**: PR campaigns for backlinks and E-E-A-T — see **eeat-signals**

## Initial Assessment

**Check for project context first:** If `.claude/project-context.md` or `.cursor/project-context.md` exists, read it for product, audience, and proof points.

Identify:
1. **Current backlink profile**: Domain authority, referring domains
2. **Target keywords**: What to rank for
3. **Linkable assets**: Research, tools, guides, data, testimonials

## Link Building Strategies

| Strategy | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| **Content marketing** | Create link-worthy content (guides, research, tools) |
| **Guest posting** | Write for relevant sites with author bio link |
| **Broken link building** | Find broken links, suggest your content as replacement |
| **Unlinked brand mentions** | Turn mentions into links via outreach |
| **Journalist requests** | Respond to #JournoRequest; provide quotes/assets |

| **Digital PR** | Press releases, news, expert quotes; earn authoritative links at scale |
| **Partnerships** | Partner links, co-marketing |

## Quality Over Quantity

| Factor | Good | Avoid |
|--------|------|-------|

| **Authority** | High-quality, trusted sites | Spammy, low-quality |
| **Anchor text** | Natural, varied | Over-optimized, exact match |
| **Context** | Editorial, contextual links | Footer, sidebar link farms |

- Track outreach in spreadsheet or tool

## Output Format

Cómo instalarla Copiar

Claude Code / Claude Desktop

1. Create a folder named after the skill inside your skills directory:
   - Claude Code: `~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/`
   - A project-local skill: `<project>/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/`
2. Save the text below as `SKILL.md` in that folder, keeping the
   `---` frontmatter block at the top — the `name` and `description`
   fields are what make the skill discoverable.
3. Restart Claude Code, or run `/skills` to confirm it is listed.

The skill loads only when its `description` matches what you are doing,
so a precise description matters more than a long body.
