Linkbuildr is a free Wordpress plug-in that takes the pain out of promoting your content. Simply write your post, fill in some contact details and hit publish - Linkbuildr does the rest.
Nick is a long time friend in the SEO industry and has built an incredible agency and set of tools over the years to enable SEO success. Linkbuildr is something I have wanted to exist for years.
Great stuff, @nick_eubanks ! Thanks for sharing this with the community. I think the subject line "Gave you a shoutout" will quickly find it's way to many custom "Skip the inbox" filters in Gmail 😅
@yuriburchenya definitely, it’s just a default template so users can activate the plugin and immediately use it. The intention is for people to create their own templates that better fit their audiences.
I'm always skeptical of this kind of stuff...and then I saw that Nick Eubanks is one of the creators. I need to take it for a test drive, but the concept is very clever.
@stevenjacobs_ Hey Steven - yes, this version uses the same mail servers that any messages sent from the wordpress install uses. We are releasing a version that will have an integration option with Amazon SES in the next week or so.
@fraser_mcculloch Hey Fraser - Originally this wasn't intended but while testing for the demo last week I realized this is a MUST HAVE, so we're adding it now and it will be released in an update later this week!
@stevenvvessum Thanks Steven! We already have a version ready that integrates with Hunter.io and Amazon SES to significantly speed up finding contact emails and improve email deliverability. Then we'll be adding a module that automatically recommends internal links (including anchor text) based on topical term overlap between posts (since the tech is already parsing all the content in the posts anyway :P )
Thanks so much for sharing @dohertyjf ! We built this tool over a year ago and have been testing it on our own sites. Sites running Linkbuildr have seen an average increase in shares and mentions of almost 30% over sites without it. It's the tool I always wanted; so we built it :)
