Why Eastern Europe is different

What makes link building in Eastern Europe different?

Eastern Europe is 13 markets with 13 languages and two alphabets. Google ranks each country on links from its own local sites, and in some markets local search engines matter too, such as Seznam in Czechia. You need native-written placements in each language you target.

Many brands treat the region as one bloc and translate a single campaign. But Polish, Czech, Romanian and Hungarian readers each have their own publishers, and Bulgarian, Serbian, Ukrainian and Russian sites are often in Cyrillic.

How do I choose a link building agency?

An agency is the fastest safe route when you need links across Eastern Europe. In-house only works if you already have native speakers and editor contacts in each market.

How we earn links

Our link building strategies

Google and AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity both rely on what trusted sites say about you. Each of our four strategies earns those signals: links that lift your rankings, and mentions that get your brand named in AI answers.

01

Guest posts & thought leadership articles

Articles on the sites AI tools read, so your brand and expertise appear in their sources, with a link to the pages you want to rank.

02

Digital PR

Coverage on news and trade media, the sources AI answers cite most often, plus high-authority links.

03

Brand mentions & AI citations

Your brand named, with consistent facts, on the comparison and list pages ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews pull from.

04

Linkable assets & tools (content seeding)

Data studies, guides and free tools that AI tools quote and other sites link to, long after launch.

FAQs

How does link building in Eastern Europe work?

We build a separate site list for each country. Native writers create the articles in the local language, and we place every link by hand once you approve the site.

What link building strategies do you use?

We use four: guest posts and thought leadership articles, digital PR, brand mentions and AI citations, and linkable assets that we seed to relevant sites. Together they earn links that lift your Google rankings and mentions that get your brand named in AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity.

Do you write in Cyrillic for Bulgaria, Serbia, Ukraine and Russia?

Yes. Our native writers create articles in the script each site uses, Cyrillic or Latin.

Does Seznam matter for link building in Czechia?

Yes. Many Czech users still search on Seznam, so we favour Czech sites that rank and get traffic on both Seznam and Google.

Can I run several Eastern European markets in one programme?

Yes. You get one plan, one strategist and one monthly report, with a site list and native writer for each country.

How much does link building in Eastern Europe cost?

From €3,000 per month. The price depends on how many markets and languages you need, how competitive your keywords are and the quality of the sites. You get the exact price in your proposal.

Do I approve every link?

Yes. Nothing is pitched until you approve the site list for that month and that market.

Which sites will my links be on in Eastern Europe?

Real, editorially run sites with organic traffic in each market and topic, such as local news, trade press and niche blogs. You see and approve every site first.

How do you report on progress?

Once a month, with every live URL per market, its anchor text, the site metrics and the plan for the next month.

Is your link building white hat?

Yes. We only use manual outreach and native-written content. We never use PBNs, link farms or paid-link marketplaces.

Will my links stay live?

We monitor every link. If one is removed within 12 months, we replace it with one of equal quality, free of charge.
