Report Methodology

Authority Hacker anonymously surveyed 755 professional link builders on how they build links, what works best / worst for them, and what it really takes to make link building work for your business.

Why it Matters

The statistic that in-house SEOs pay 75% more for links than niche site owners matters because it reveals the financial burden faced by companies investing in their own SEO efforts. It highlights potential inequalities in the industry, emphasizing the need for fair pricing and transparency to create a level playing field for all SEO practitioners.
