About Cited Labs
Agentic AI speed. Human SEO judgment. Pay-per-live-link.
Cited Labs is a white-hat link-building studio. We earn editorial backlinks, the kind a real editor keeps on their site because the content genuinely helps their reader, and we charge only when a link is actually live. If it isn't live, you don't pay.
Why we exist
Most link building sits on a spectrum from slow-and-honest to fast-and-risky. We think that trade-off is a false one. Agentic AI handles the volume work, research, prospecting, drafting, and outreach at speed, while experienced human SEO judgment decides what is actually worth pursuing and what would quietly become a liability. The result is durable authority built from links that earn their place.
How we work
- Editorial only. We pursue placements a publisher would defend, not links hidden in footers or private networks.
- You approve targets. You see the sites before we invest outreach in them.
- Pay-per-live-link. You're billed when the link goes live and is verified, never before.
- No fabricated proof. We don't invent testimonials, logos, or stats. Fabricated endorsements are illegal (FTC, 2024) and backfire with an audience that can tell. When we have real case studies to share, we will.
Who it's for
In-house SEO leads, founders of SaaS and content businesses, and growth marketers who want authority without gambling their domain on manipulative links.
Who runs it
Cited Labs is run by a small team of SEO practitioners and editors who personally review every placement, there's no outsourced content mill behind the work. We publish under the Cited Labs Editorial Team, and a human who does this work daily stands behind every link we build. Questions? Reach us any time at [email protected].
