  • Traffic & relevance: minimum organic traffic, ranking keywords, topical relevance and share of traffic in your target country.
  • Risk & neighbourhood: maximum spam score, grey-niche outbound links, sponsored density and outbound links per post; exclude sites with a penalty history or declining traffic.
  • Link mechanics & content: minimum permanence and article length; dofollow only, indexing guaranteed, one link per domain.
