Agree with the point above about relevance over DR. I run a small e-commerce store in a supplement niche and I'm still early on, but here's what I'm seeing so far:
- Relevant mentions beat high-DR links. A link from a page that's actually about your topic seems to matter more than a generic directory listing.
- Content that gets cited is a better "link strategy" than outreach for us. Original data, like publishing third-party lab results for a product, gives people something to reference.
- Profiles and directories are fine for getting discovered and indexed, but I wouldn't count them as a ranking strategy.
Curious whether anyone has had success getting links in a niche with strict advertising rules (health or supplements)? Most guest post sites don't want it.
