Editorial, not transactional
We only build links a newsroom would accept to publish without payment. That's the only quality standard that scales.
SEO + GEO · Link Building
B2B link building with editorial mentions in authority media. Digital PR, HARO and guest posts that move ranking and authority. No PBN.
Editorial link building is the systematic construction of inbound mentions in authority media via digital PR, HARO and senior guest posts. No marketplaces, no PBN, no shortcuts: only links an external auditor would validate as legitimate.
In 2026 authority is no longer measured by backlink volume. It's measured by who links to you and why. Editorial mentions in DR 50+ media are the only asset that moves Google ranking and real citations in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews.
How we work
We don't sell pitches. We sell live links in DR 50+ media with real organic traffic, natural anchor distribution and quarterly reporting by published result.
We only build links a newsroom would accept to publish without payment. That's the only quality standard that scales.
No media below DR 50 with verifiable organic traffic. Authority is set by the publisher, not the inventory.
Studies, benchmarks and sector surveys a journalist actually wants to cite. The link is earned, not asked for.
We answer press requests daily. Typical rate: 1 out of every 8 pitches ends in a signed editorial publication.
40-50% branded, 15-20% generic, 5-8% exact maximum. Organic pattern indistinguishable from a profile earned solo.
We clean the inbound profile before building. And we monitor new toxic domains every month to protect the domain.
Editorial mentions in authority media move real citations in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews.
We don't count pitches sent. We count live links, DR delta and movement on head terms. Total transparency.

Frequently asked questions
It's the systematic construction of inbound links via editorial mentions in media with real organic traffic. It relies on digital PR, HARO and senior guest posts. The criterion is simple: the link must exist because a newsroom decided it adds value to the reader, not because it was paid for.
The Cronuts fee starts at €1,500/month for B2B projects targeting 4-6 editorial links per quarter. It scales up to €3,500/month when digital PR with proprietary data, linkable content and disavow management are added. No minimum lock-in.
The first movements in Google Search Console are observed between day 60 and 90 after publishing the first editorial links. Full impact on competitive head terms typically consolidates between month 4 and 6. Serious link building is a compounding asset, not a hack.
No. Cronuts does not buy links in marketplaces like Prensarank, Publisuites or similar. The footprint is detectable by Google and the average inventory quality doesn't meet the editorial threshold we require. We only build links an external auditor would validate as legitimate.
Yes. We're active members of HARO, Qwoted, Featured, ResponseSource and SourceBottle. We prepare responses with the content team and with the client's signing expert when applicable. Typical acceptance rate: 1 out of every 8 pitches gets published.
We map them in the initial audit. If the inbound profile has significant spam, we prepare a prioritized disavow file and upload it to Google Search Console. We monitor new toxic domains monthly to prevent negative SEO attacks.
Yes. The standard contract guarantees a minimum of 4 editorial links in DR 50+ media per quarter. If we don't reach it, we extend the next quarter at no additional cost. We'd rather miss the volume than lower the quality threshold.
Yes. Modern editorial link building also impacts generative engines: ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews rely on brand mentions in authority media to decide which entities to cite. We work this angle explicitly.
We sign an NDA on every project. We work with industrial B2B, SaaS, executive education, healthcare and professional services. We turn down adult, gambling and high-risk financial sectors to avoid contaminating the editorial profile of the media we operate with.
Closing
Serious link building isn't volume. It's editorial judgment sustained over time.
Cronuts builds authority with mentions an external auditor would validate without hesitation: digital PR with proprietary data, HARO, senior guest posts and link reclamation. No marketplaces, no PBNs, no shortcuts that burn the domain.
