Resource Page Outreach

Earn backlinks by getting your content listed on curated resource pages, industry roundups, and best-of lists that already link to content in your space.

What's Included

Everything you get with our Resource Page Outreach

Resource Page Discovery

We use advanced search operators and crawl tools to find resource pages, roundups, and best-of lists in your niche that are actively maintained.

Page Qualification

Each resource page is checked for domain authority, organic traffic, indexation, update frequency, and editorial quality before we pursue it.

Content Gap Analysis

We identify what the resource page is missing and match it to content you already have or that we can create for you.

Personalized Outreach

Each pitch explains exactly which section of the resource page would benefit from your content and why it is a fit for their audience.

How We Earn Resource Page Placements

Niche Resource Page Mapping

We use search operators (inurl:resources, intitle:'useful links', etc.) combined with Ahrefs to compile every active resource page in your vertical, typically 50-200+ targets.

Qualification & Prioritization

Each page is scored by domain rating, organic traffic, update recency, and relevance to your business. We prioritize pages on .edu, .gov, and high-DR industry domains.

Content Matching or Creation

For each qualified page, we match your existing content to a specific gap. If no matching content exists, we create a resource (guide, tool, or dataset) that fills the gap better than anything else listed.

Targeted Outreach

Our outreach emails reference the specific resource page, name the section where your content fits, and explain the value add for their audience. This specificity drives 8-12% response rates.

Placement Tracking & Verification

Every acquired link is verified for live status, dofollow tag, and indexation. We monitor placements monthly and follow up if any are removed during page updates.

Key Benefits

Links from Pages Built to Link Out

Resource pages exist for the sole purpose of recommending content. Your link sits alongside other curated resources, making it one of the most contextually natural backlink types possible.

High-Authority Domains

Many resource pages live on .edu, .gov, and industry association domains that carry exceptional authority. A single link from a university resource page can outweigh dozens of blog links.

Long-Term Link Stability

Resource pages are maintained as permanent references, not time-sensitive blog posts. Links placed here tend to remain live for years, providing sustained ranking value.

Referral Traffic from Targeted Audiences

People who visit resource pages are actively looking for tools and information in your niche. Links from these pages generate highly qualified referral traffic.

Research & Evidence

Backed by industry research and proven results

Moz: Ranking Factors Research

Links are one of the top 3 Google ranking factors, and the number of unique linking root domains correlates more strongly with rankings than total link count. Resource page outreach directly grows this metric.

Ahrefs: Zero-Backlink Pages Study

66.31% of pages have zero backlinks. Resource pages are among the easiest link sources to earn because the page owner already intends to link to helpful content. Getting listed is a matter of quality and outreach, not persuasion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of resource pages do you target?

We target university resource lists, government agency link pages, industry association directories, trade publication roundups, and authoritative blog resource sections. The common thread is that the page was built specifically to curate and recommend the best content in a given topic area.

Do I need existing content to get listed on resource pages?

It helps, but it is not required. If you have guides, tools, datasets, or comprehensive articles on topics relevant to the resource pages we identify, we use those. If not, we create linkable assets specifically designed to fill gaps on high-priority resource pages.

How is this different from directory submissions?

Directories are automated, often low-quality listings that Google largely ignores. Resource pages are hand-curated by real people who evaluate every link they include. Being listed on a curated resource page signals editorial endorsement, which is what Google values.

How many resource page links can I expect per month?

Typically 3-8 per month, depending on your niche and the quality of your linkable assets. Some niches like education and health have hundreds of active resource pages, while more specialized B2B verticals have fewer but higher-value targets.
