Your Clients Get High-Authority Backlinks.
You Take the Credit.
Above Apex is a dedicated white label link building partner for SEO agencies, content marketing agencies, freelancers, and fractional marketing leaders. We do the work. You deliver the results. Your brand, your relationship, your revenue.
You Pay Per Link.
After the Link Goes Live.
White label link building is when a specialist agency builds backlinks on behalf of another agency’s clients – and the buying agency presents those links as their own work.
It’s how smart agencies scale link building without hiring, training, and managing an in-house team. You get the capacity, the expertise, and the results. We stay invisible. Your client never knows we exist.
A client asks for links and the in-house team doesn’t have the bandwidth or expertise
They want to add link building as a service without the overhead of building a team
Their current provider is producing low-quality links that aren’t moving rankings
They’re scaling fast and need a reliable partner behind the scenes
Built for agencies who want a real partner.
SEO Agencies
You handle on-page and technical. We handle off-page. Your clients get a complete SEO offering without you needing to build a link building department from scratch.
Content Marketing Agencies
Great content deserves great distribution. We build the links that make your content rank – and you get to show clients the full-funnel impact of their investment.
Digital Marketing Agencies
Add link building to your service stack without the overhead. We become an invisible extension of your team, working to your briefs and your timelines.
Freelance SEOs & Fractional Leaders
Whether you manage three clients or thirty, white labeling gives you the capacity to offer high-quality link building without the operational complexity of doing it yourself.
Most white label services are link farms with a nicer website. We're not.
We’re a dedicated link building partner – not an SEO agency with link building as an afterthought. Off-page authority is all we do.
10-Metric Vetting on Every Domain
Before a single outreach email goes out, we vet every placement on 10 metrics: Domain Rating, organic traffic, traffic source by country, LD/RD ratio, niche relevance, content quality, link profile health, and more.
First Links Live in 10–15 Days
No 60-day warm-up period. No ‘we’re building the strategy’ for a month. First links go live within the first two weeks of onboarding. Your clients see progress fast.
3–8 Strategies Running Simultaneously
Editorial backlinks, expert quote outreach, listicle placements, unlinked brand mentions, link exchanges, competitor analysis – multiple strategies activated from day one, in parallel.
Fully White-Labeled Reporting
Your client never sees the name Above Apex. We deliver a live Google Sheet and a real-time custom dashboard – fully unbranded, shareable directly with your clients under your brand.
Permanent Placements, Daily Monitoring
Every link we place is monitored daily. If a link goes down, we reinstate it or replace it with an equally strong placement – guaranteed. No disposable links.
NDA Available
We understand that your client relationships are your business. We offer NDAs to ensure we never approach your clients directly, now or in the future. A real commitment, not a talking point.
Flexible pricing built around your agency.
We don’t publish a fixed rate card for agency partnerships. Pricing depends on the industry, the client’s domain profile, and the volume of work.
Editorial Backlinks
DR 55–95+ placements in genuine editorial content. Earned through relationships and outreach - not sponsored or paid-for guest posts on PBN-adjacent sites.
Expert Quote Placements
250+ expert quotes placed in outlets like HubSpot, Fast Company, Shopify, GoDaddy, Yahoo Finance, Hootsuite, and Nasdaq. Authority signals at DR 86–96.
Listicle & Roundup Inclusions
238+ placements in best-of lists and industry roundups. The pages buyers read when comparing solutions - and the pages AI tools cite when answering category questions.
Unlinked Brand Mentions
Your client's brand named in editorial content. Underused by most agencies. Directly feeds AI citation visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini.
Competitor Analysis & Linked Domain Targeting
We reverse-engineer your client's competitor backlink profiles to find the highest-impact opportunities already proven to move rankings in their niche.
Additional Tactics
Link exchanges, podcast placements, partner placements, linkable asset promotion, lost link recovery - deployed where they fit the strategy.
How the white label partnership works.
01
Onboarding (15 minutes)
You share your client’s goals, commercial pages, and any brand guidelines. We gather everything we need to build the most impactful strategy, fast.
02
Target Identification
We analyze your client’s competitor landscape, existing content assets, domain gaps, and niche relevance to identify the highest-priority link targets.
03
Outreach & Relationship Building
We reach out to relevant websites and publishers through email and social channels. We leverage existing relationships and build new ones – all personalised.
04
Vetting Every Placement
Every domain is evaluated on 10 metrics before a link is confirmed. Most agencies skip this step entirely. We run it on every single placement, every time.
05
Pay after placement
Links are logged in your unbranded live dashboard and Google Sheet. Monthly Ahrefs KPI summary included. AI Citation Coverage Report included.
Daily link monitoring · Dedicated Slack channel · Permanent placements only - replacements guaranteed.
Reporting your clients will actually value.
White label reporting is the part most agencies get wrong. They send a CSV at the end of the month and call it done. We give you a live system that makes your agency look exceptional.
You have clients who need measurable ranking and traffic improvement
Custom live dashboard – visual, clean, and built for client-facing use
Monthly Ahrefs KPI summary – organic traffic, DR movement, keyword rankings
AI Citation Coverage Report – ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini visibility (no other white label provider offers this)
Dedicated Slack channel – direct line to your account manager for questions, updates, and escalations
Every report can go directly to your client. No Above Apex branding. No awkward explanations.

Who we're not a fit for.
White label link building with Above Apex works best when:
You have clients who need measurable ranking and traffic improvement
You want a partner, not just a vendor
Quality matters more to you than cost per link
You can give us a brief and trust us to execute
We’re probably not the right fit if you need the cheapest link on the internet, want to micromanage every placement, or are looking for a one-month engagement with no real goals attached.
HARO Link Building FAQs
First links go live within 10–15 days of onboarding. Ranking movement typically becomes visible within 60–90 days, depending on the client’s on-page foundation. We track this and include it in your monthly Ahrefs KPI report.
