Link Building Agency
in San Francisco
Editorial authority from the outlets SF buyers actually read.
In SF tech, a link from TechCrunch, The Information, Stratechery, or Hacker News outranks 50 from DR-30 directory pages — and Google's link graph agrees. TML runs digital PR and editorial link building for SF and Bay Area companies targeting the publications your VCs, customers, and competitors actually read. Data-driven story pitches, original research, founder byline placements — real links, no PBNs.

Quick Answer
SF link building is an editorial game, not a manipulation game. The moats that actually hold up in 2026 — against both Google updates and competitors — are built from earned coverage in the publications your audience already trusts. A single placement in The Information or a bylined piece in First Round Review can move rankings and pipeline in ways DR-30 guest posts never will.

Your Link Building Partner in San Francisco.
SF link building is an editorial game, not a manipulation game. The moats that actually hold up in 2026 — against both Google updates and competitors — are built from earned coverage in the publications your audience already trusts. A single placement in The Information or a bylined piece in First Round Review can move rankings and pipeline in ways DR-30 guest posts never will.
We run digital PR programs for SF companies across SaaS, AI, fintech, crypto, and B2B services. Typical campaign architecture: quarterly data story built from your product telemetry or industry survey, 4-6 week pitch cycle to 80-150 vetted journalists, coordinated founder byline pitches to complementary publications, and ongoing reactive coverage (HARO+/Qwoted/SourceBottle) to catch high-quality secondary placements. Every link earned is editorial and in-content.
Pricing context matters here: a senior SF PR firm charges $15-30k/month for roughly comparable placement work. Our model delivers the same calibre of campaign strategy and outreach execution at meaningfully lower cost — with transparent reporting on every pitch sent, response, and link earned. That's why a lot of our clients came to us after leaving name-brand PR shops without moving the ranking needle.
