How campaigns work

A campaign spends a monthly budget on placements that match your brief and quality rules. Here's how recommendations, approvals and orders fit together.

Updated 1 min read

Ordering one placement at a time works well for a few links. A campaign is for steady, monthly link building: you set the budget and the rules once, and the engine keeps finding publications that fit. More in the product tour.

The building blocks

PartWhat it does
GoalImprove Backlink profile (SEO) or Improve AI visibility. You can later choose to optimise for both.
BudgetA monthly budget and a maximum price per placement. Publications above that price are never recommended.
BriefThe target URL, a pool of anchor texts the engine rotates through, a content brief for the writer and target keywords.
Targeting and requirementsNiches, the audience country, and minimum DA, DR and traffic, a maximum spam score, and dofollow only.
ApprovalsSemi-auto: you approve each recommendation. Auto: the engine places its picks within budget.

What happens each month

  1. The engine recommends placements that match your targeting and pass every quality threshold, explaining why each one was picked. See how recommendations are chosen.
  2. In Semi-auto you approve or decline each one; declined picks are replaced. In Auto they're placed for you.
  3. Approved placements are ordered for you. They show on the campaign's Orders tab and in Orders (with Campaign as the source), and go through the usual stages.
  4. The campaign page tracks spend against budget, links live and in production, and the average DR.

Campaigns have no management fee: you pay for the placements.

During early access, campaign billing (a monthly charge to a saved card) is being set up with each customer. Email hello@rankticker.com before launching your first campaign and we'll get it running.
