3. And what do I do?
As a campaigns and social exec at Click, I plan, create and
execute link-building campaigns, collaborating with bloggers
and brands such as…
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
4. What is a “campaign”?
In my world, SEO, a campaign aims to:
Build links and give client’s a boost in their search engine
rankings
The process (in a nutshell):
– Start with client objectives
– Come up with some ideas and a concept
– Create the relevant assets (eBook, visuals, fact sheets)
– Reach out to relevant bloggers
– Build links
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
5. Why do brands want to work with
bloggers?
- They want to gain online exposure for their brand
- They want to build links
- They want to spread brand awareness
- They want to team up with people who endorse them
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
6. Why do bloggers want to work
with brands/agencies?
- To endorse their favourite brands
- For some fresh, shareable content for their readers
- To get involved in fun, relevant campaigns
- To gain exposure
- To build relationships (long term)
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
7. Consider who is contacting you
Different pitches will land in your inbox
Depending on where they’re from, they will have different goals and
objectives
For instance, you might be contacted by:
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
8. PR’s goals, on behalf of a brand
Wanting to gain exposure for their brand/product
Not precious about specific links (no-follow vs. do-follow)
They will offer things like product/restaurant reviews, freebies, events,
giveaways, AKA blogger gifting
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
9. Follow vs. No Follow Links
- When you link to another site from your own, you are passing ‘authority’
- You are signalling to Google that the site you’re linking to is worthwhile
- Linking to good quality sites is good for your own site i.e. linking to The
Guardian, Oxfam the NHS website
- No-follow links are when you add rel=“no follow” to the <a> tag in your site’s
code
- This tells Google NOT to pass authority to the site
- You should do this when you’ve been given payment or a freebie i.e. blogger
gifting
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
10. SEO’s goals, on behalf of a brand
Wanting to build good quality, relevant do-follow links to the brand’s homepage
or relevant sub-page
Wanting to earn brand exposure that doesn’t directly “sell” the product
The most
important factor
is relevance to
the campaign
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
11. What is DA?
- Score of 1-100 that predicts how well a website will rank
on search engines
- A metric developed by Moz, who are independent of
Google
- The most common metric used by SEOs
- Looks at your sites link profile
- i.e. who is linking to your domain, are they good quality links? Are they relevant?
- Best to have your own domain and not .wordpress.com
or .blogspot.com
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
12. How do I check my…
Domain Authority?
Here: moz.com/researchtools/ose/
Trust Flow?
Here: majestic.com
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
13. A brand’s goals, if they contact you direct
• A mixture of PR goals and SEO
goals
• Very likely to have a PR
person/team in-house
• Likely to also have an SEO
person/small team in-house
• Looking for brand endorsement /
ambassadors
• Wanting to tap into your
audience
• Example: Manchester health
food blogger spamellab.com
(@SpamellaB)
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
14. Is the approach email collaborative?
Is the campaign right for me, and most
importantly my readers?

want to work with brands

hello@click.co.uk
21. Avoiding potential pitfalls
- Try not to be tempted by every opportunity
- Look out for relevant, collaborative projects
- Remember, if you’re contacted by a good SEO it is part of
a wider strategy for the brand
- Never sell links on your site. However, if you’re writing
your own content, ask for compensation for your time and
admin costs
- Don’t go link crazy… One link to the home page or
relevant page is enough
www.click.co.uk
hello@click.co.uk
22. Recap: how to make your blog
attractive to brands
Keep doing what you’re doing… blog, blog, blog
Make sure you have some posts with no links, such as unlinked brand
mentions
Build relevant, trustworthy links and practice good SEO on your blog
Produce unique content
Use a tone and style that matches desired brands
Interact on social media
Consider do-follow links where possible, when right for your blog and
readers

HELLO! Thanks for coming.
Aiming to shed light on blogger/brand relationships and how you can make your blog attractive to brands, mainly from an SEO’s perspective
1. what brands look for
2. how you can make your blog adheres to some of the things they look for
Goes over the basics for new bloggers, but hopefully still insightful for more experienced bloggers
Questions at the end so keep note of any as we go!
Introduce myself as a blogger – food & lifestyle, recipes, reviews, guest posts,
Also “campaigns & social exec” at Click Consult (search agency/SEO)
I plan, execute and run Click’s brand campaigns from ideas stage right through to completion.
These are the type of brands I work with….
Let’s also consider, why bloggers want to work with brands? What are the benefits of working well with an agency?
Agencies are more than often the ’facilitators’; they often have big clients, so it is good to build positive relationships with them where possible.
A long-term relationship if possible. As if one campaign isn’t right for you, the next one might be.
A PR agency
A SEO agency
Or, a brand may contact you directly (both PR and SEO)
One of the most important things to make the blogger/brand relationship seamless, is to first of all consider who is contacting you.
Each have different metrics, criteria and budgets
Not always clear-cut and there is some overlap
PRs goals may have some cross over with SEO campaign goals, as we look at social media following and engagement sometimes too.
Particularly if the DA is low, but the site is super relevant.
GREY AREA?
If a brand does come to you direct, they most likely want to form a brand ambassador partnership with you
Examples might include: product reviews, giveaways, content writing, recipe development, social media promotion
Criteria: High traffic stats, social influencer (high social following who trust you), relevance to their product
Budget: They are likely to have a budget in mind for the different services required, which will be up for negotiation
