Link Building

Link building, backlinks and external links refer to one of the core SEO signals: the links between websites. When relevant websites link to your pages, they help strengthen your website’s authority (PageRank), improve trust signals and support better rankings for competitive keywords.

In 2026, link building is no longer only about Google rankings. Relevant backlinks, brand mentions and media coverage can also support GEO, as listicles, Digital PR and trusted third-party references help brands gain visibility in AI Overviews, ChatGPT and other AI-generated answers.

Get Clicks specialises in comprehensive link building strategies in Hong Kong and other APAC markets, including Taiwan, Singapore, Vietnam, and Malaysia, alongside the US, France and other European markets. We support brands across a wide range of industries and niches.

What Our Link Building Strategies Aim to Achieve

Search engines use links to assess the authority, relevance and trustworthiness of a website. A strong link profile helps your pages compete in search results and supports your wider digital visibility.

The goal is not to build more links for the sake of it. The priority is to earn the right links and mentions from sources that reinforce your expertise, match your positioning and make sense for your audience. This also matters for GEO. Relevant listicles, expert articles and media coverage can strengthen the signals AI systems use to understand your brand and reference it in AI-generated answers.

LINK AUDIT

We analyse your backlink profile, competitor links and online mentions to identify opportunities that can strengthen your authority, improve search performance and support visibility in AI-driven answers.

SPONSORED ARTICLES

Sponsored articles, also known as guest posts, help your brand earn relevant backlinks and mentions from trusted websites. This approach supports rankings, brand visibility and topical authority across local and international markets.

DIGITAL PR for SEO

Digital PR helps your brand earn media coverage, backlinks and mentions through newsworthy content and targeted outreach. It supports SEO, GEO and brand awareness by building stronger authority signals across trusted third-party sources.

FAQ ABOUT OUR LINK BUILDING SERVICES

Is link building still relevant to SEO in 2026?

Absolutely. Links remain one of the main signals used by Google to evaluate authority and relevance. Without quality links, your pages may struggle to compete for highly competitive keywords, especially if your website is newly launched.

Link building is also becoming more important for GEO. Relevant backlinks, brand mentions, listicle placements and media coverage can help AI systems understand your brand and reference it more often in AI-generated answers.

What types of websites should we aim to get links from?

We aim to obtain links from relevant websites within your industry or niche.

For example, if you sell shoes but receive many backlinks from finance websites, these links may not be relevant to your niche. To improve your authority within a particular niche, it is better to work with websites related to your industry.

For GEO, relevant media, expert articles and listicles can also help strengthen the signals AI systems use to understand and cite your brand.

Can link building hurt my website?

Using unnatural techniques or acquiring links from low-quality, spammy websites can lead to Google nullifying these links without the website owner realising it. While penalties and manual actions are less common, it is crucial to follow best practices and focus on quality over quantity to support long-term SEO and GEO visibility.

How do you measure the success of a link building campaign?

We measure the success of a link building campaign by tracking metrics such as backlinks acquired, improvements in domain authority, organic traffic growth, rankings for targeted keywords, brand mentions, listicle placements and AI visibility signals through tools like SEObserver, Semrush or Ahrefs.

Can you do link building for different markets?

Yes. Get Clicks is located in Hong Kong but manages link building campaigns across Hong Kong and other APAC markets, including Taiwan, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Mainland China and more. We also support campaigns in Canada, the USA and France, in multiple languages including Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English and French.
