BacklinkGenie

BacklinkGenie is a done-for-you link building outreach service that finds posts in your niche, writes one pitch per editor, sends it from a managed mailbox on a separate domain, and follows up automatically.

What is BacklinkGenie?

BacklinkGenie is an automated link building outreach tool. You paste your site URL as the only input; it reads the site and returns a prospect report listing posts where your product fits, each with an Ahrefs Domain Rating, a fit reason and a verified editor contact. Paid plans turn that report into written pitches, send them from a Google Workspace mailbox that BacklinkGenie registers on a domain close to your brand, and log the links you win. It runs as a web app at app.backlinkgenie.com and also as an MCP server for AI assistants.

What makes BacklinkGenie stand out?

• Separate sending domain — BacklinkGenie registers a domain near your brand, sets up a Google Workspace mailbox on it, and publishes SPF, DKIM and DMARC before the first email; your company domain never sends a pitch, and the domain can be moved to your registrar for free if you leave.
• Deliberate mailbox ramp — 4 pitches a day at first, rising by 2 every other day to 35 a day by day 32, which works out to roughly 540 pitches in month one and about 1,050 a month after that.
• Quality gate on every email — drafts you edit are checked by the same rules as the agent's: only the contact found for that post's site, links only to your own site, no shorteners or attachments, and no offers of payment or link swaps.
• MCP server for AI assistants — add app.backlinkgenie.com/mcp as a connector in Claude or ChatGPT (API key for Cursor and Claude Code) and use 22 tools to list replies, approve pitches above a DR threshold, import posts or send approved replies.
• Weekly link monitoring — each won placement is found on the live page and re-checked every week, with an email alert if it is removed or switched to nofollow, plus a CSV export of site, DR, status and dates.
• Prospect controls — set a minimum Domain Rating per site, and on Growth and Agency paste your own target post URLs, keep a domain blocklist and name competitors that are never contacted.
• Autopilot — on Growth and Agency the agent finds posts, writes and sends within the daily limit once the mailbox is warm, with a daily email of what went out.
• Site screening — every site is reviewed before outreach, and categories such as gambling, adult content, cannabis and vapes, crypto schemes, predatory lending, link sellers and essay mills are turned away.

Who should use BacklinkGenie?

• Bootstrapped SaaS founders — get listed next to the tools they are compared with without an agency retainer, approving each pitch from one inbox.
• Indie app makers — reach the bloggers who write "best apps for…" posts in their category.
• Small marketing teams — run outreach every day without hiring a person to send it by hand.
• SEO agencies — one login with a separate mailbox, blocklist and link history per client site, up to 8 sites on the Agency plan.

Use cases

• SaaS launching into a crowded category: paste the URL, get a list of "best X" and "alternatives" posts with DR and contacts, then approve pitches asking editors for a list inclusion.
• Agency running client campaigns: put each client on its own mailbox and domain so outreach never mixes, and export per-site link logs for reporting.
• Founder working inside an AI assistant: ask Claude or ChatGPT which editors replied, have a reply drafted to an editor who said yes, and approve pitches above DR 60 without opening the dashboard.

How does BacklinkGenie work?

You start by pasting your URL for a free prospect report. After subscribing, BacklinkGenie registers a domain and creates the Google Workspace mailbox, verifies SPF, DKIM and DMARC over days 1 to 3, then begins sending 4 approved pitches a day and raises the cap every other day to about 12 a day in week 2 and 35 a day from day 32.

Pricing

Three paid tiers, billed monthly or yearly with two months free on annual: Starter at $99/month (1 site, 1 mailbox, up to 1,000 emails a month), Growth at $249/month (3 sites, 3 mailboxes, up to 3,000 emails, autopilot and MCP access) and Agency at $499/month (8 sites, 8 mailboxes, up to 8,000 emails, priority support). The free prospect report requires no card.

FAQ

Is BacklinkGenie free?

The prospect report is free and needs no card: it lists real posts where you could be mentioned with each site's Domain Rating and a contact. Sending pitches requires a paid plan, which starts at $99 a month for one mailbox.

Does BacklinkGenie guarantee a number of links?

No. The site states plainly that results depend on how many good posts exist in your niche and whether editors think your product helps their readers, and warns that anyone guaranteeing links is usually paying for them.

Will cold outreach hurt my company domain?

No. Pitches are sent from a separate domain BacklinkGenie registers and runs, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC verified before anything sends, so your website and normal company email are not affected.

Do I have to approve every email?

On Starter, yes — each pitch waits for you to edit, approve or skip. On Growth and Agency you can switch on autopilot once the mailbox is warmed up, and switch back at any time.

Which sites are turned away?

Gambling, adult content, cannabis and vapes, weapons, crypto schemes, payday lending, online pharmacies, essay mills, link sellers and similar categories are rejected at signup; health, finance and legal sites get a manual review first.
