I always thought of automated outreach as downright insulting, bad, and useless.
I and our team send customized pitches via HARO (Help a reporter out) which I talk in S01E06 and S01E07 of this podcast.
And our results speak for themselves: just got cited on HBR (Harvard Business Review)!>
Even when we did guest post outreach, we always did our best to personalize our pitches.
But recently I had a bit of a change of heart regarding automated outreach that many SEOs do in order to earn backlinks.
Don't get me wrong.
I still (and always will) absolutely detest all those annoying email pitches which are:
- badly researched
- copy and paste
- colder than a "banker's heart" and a "brass toilet seat in the Yukon"
Example: I mean I got one asking me to write about them in my Forbes column, and they were a startup that has had made some kind of special socks.
SOCKS!
You must have received at least some of those pitches from salespersons, SEOs, and PR 'professionals.
But, I now realize, there's a better way.
I share what can help you earn links at scale, without annoying your recipients.
