Backlink Reclamation

How It Works

How We Win Your Missing Backlinks

You already won the press. We get the link added to the story that names you.

1. Free backlink audit

We find every story that names your brand without a backlink, ranked by site authority, so you see the size of the prize before you spend anything.

2. Reporters and editors

We find the reporter or editor who can update each story and verify their email. No guessing.

3. Personalized outreach

Senior PR people ask for the link, story by story, sent from a temporary address on your domain (reporters answer the brand they wrote about) or from ours for a one-time $99 setup fee.

4. Follow-up that adapts

We re-check every story before each follow-up. If the byline author has moved on, we go to the editor, the desk or whoever now owns the story.

5. Live dashboard and alerts

Your dashboard tracks every story, and you are notified each time a backlink is added.

6. Results in as little as 48 hours

The story already ran, so half the battle is won. Outreach begins within two business days of payment.

Why It Matters

What Every Reclaimed Backlink Does for You

Your domain authority climbs

Each backlink from a DR 90+ outlet passes authority to your whole site, and every page ranks stronger.

You show up in AI answers

ChatGPT, Claude and Google’s AI Overviews lean on the sources trusted sites link to. A mention without a link is close to invisible.

You outrank competitors on Google

Editorial links from news sites are among Google’s strongest ranking signals.

Traffic for years

The story stays up, so the link keeps sending readers and authority long after the news cycle.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question that is not answered here? Contact Prism PR.

What is backlink reclamation?

Backlink reclamation is getting a link added to press coverage that already names your brand but does not link to it, restoring links your site lost from pages that are still live, and recovering links pointing at broken pages on your site.

Are these do-follow backlinks?

Yes. We go after do-follow backlinks, the kind that pass authority to your site. Only direct do-follow backlinks count toward the 3x Value Backlink Guarantee.

Will this annoy the reporters who covered us?

No. Senior PR people handle every ask with the right cadence for each outlet, and Prism has relationships with reporters and editors at nearly every major outlet.

Do you pay publishers?

Never. Every backlink is an editorial update to a story that already names you.

How much does it cost?

The free audit costs nothing. The 60-Day Lost Backlink Recovery Sprint is one payment from $997, priced by how many stories ran without a link. Backlink Watch, which asks for the link the day a new story runs, is $149 a month.

Is backlink reclamation included in full-service PR?

Yes. Full-service PR and linkbuilding, from $7,500 a month on a 12-month engagement, includes ongoing backlink reclamation alongside new studies and coverage.
