You might recognise this: you publish blogs and landing pages, but real growth doesn’t happen. You invest in writing SEO copy, while your competitors still pass you by. Often that’s not down to the amount of content, but to the lack of a clear SEO content strategy.
Relevant backlinks: links from websites that genuinely fit your industry and audience, not random domains
Sustainable authority: a link profile that grows structurally, instead of one-off link actions that disappear quickly
Measurable impact: outsourced link building with insight into which links raise your rankings and which pages climb faster as a result

Imagine you’re looking for a good dentist. Do you trust someone who says “I’m the best”, or ten friends who all recommend the same dentist? That’s how link building works too.
A backlink is a link on another site that points to you. For Google that’s a recommendation: the more trustworthy sites link to you, the higher you rank in the search results.
Not every recommendation carries equal weight. One link from an authority within your industry is worth more than ten links on obscure sites. A good link building strategy is therefore about quality, not quantity.

Google determines your position based on two things: relevance and authority. You work on relevance through content and technology, but you build authority almost exclusively through backlinks. Without a strong link profile your site stays invisible, even if the content is completely in order.
Competitors who overtake you often don’t have better content, but a stronger foundation of backlinks. A well thought-out link building strategy therefore gets you three things: higher rankings on your key keywords, more organic traffic to your commercial pages, and authority that holds up even under future Google updates.
At WP Masters, as a link building agency, we build on that foundation structurally every month, focused on the pages that deliver the most for your business. Whether you’re just starting out or want to strengthen your link profile, outsourcing link building gives you peace of mind and direction: you know what’s happening, why it’s happening, and what it gets you.
Schedule your meetingThese are links in articles on news sites, blogs or trade platforms, where your site is mentioned as a source or example. For Google these are the most valuable backlinks, because they represent a genuine recommendation within relevant content.
Links from websites that thematically match your field. A kitchen store getting a link from a home or interior site delivers much more than a link from a general news page, because thematic relevance is a strong signal for Google.
For businesses with a physical location, local links are indispensable. Think of listings on regional platforms, business associations or partnerships with other local businesses. These backlinks strengthen your position in local search results and Google Maps.
Backlinks from well-known, established websites with a strong domain profile. One link from an authority within your industry can have the effect of dozens of smaller links, provided it’s thematically right and editorially embedded.
Not every backlink is equal. The value of a link depends on the type of site it comes from, the context it’s placed in and how natural it looks. At WP Masters we mainly work with the four types of backlinks that structurally build authority, instead of quick wins that disappear again fast.
Many business owners want to work on link building, but get stuck on time, knowledge or the right network. Approaching relevant sites yourself, negotiating editorial placements and assessing the quality of backlinks is a skill of its own. At WP Masters we take that entire process off your hands, focused on the pages where you want to force growth.
As a link building agency we don’t work with standard packages. Every link building strategy starts with an analysis of your site, your competitors and your goals. After that we build on your link profile month after month, with a report where you see exactly which links have been placed, how your rankings are rising and what outsourcing link building actually gets you.

"Voor het platform ‘Deskfinder’ hadden wij een lange lijst met ideeën hoe wij de website voor ogen hadden. Vanaf het moment dat wij kennismaakten met WP Masters, is hij samen met een team specialisten naast ons gaan staan en hebben we echt als partners dit project tot een heel mooi resultaat gebracht. WP staat voor samenwerken, creatief en resultaat!"
"Hun prettige manier van communiceren, gecombineerd met een team van enthousiaste en hardwerkende specialisten, maakt echt het verschil. Ze hebben een complete re-design van onze website gerealiseerd en verzorgen nu onze volledige online marketing. Samen hebben we doelstellingen gezet en ik kan niet wachten tot we die gaan waarmaken."
"Vanaf het begin dachten ze goed mee over onze specifieke behoeften en waren ze niet bang om af en toe iets extra's te doen. Gedurende het hele proces stonden ze altijd klaar om te helpen bij onduidelijkheden en boden ze waardevolle suggesties. We kunnen WP Masters van harte aanbevelen voor hun professionaliteit en klantgerichte aanpak."
"Onze website is klaar en gebouwd door wpmasters.nl uit Amsterdam. Zéér over tevreden en die hebben super samengewerkt met Digibusiness/Navisnet van Gabriele Mendi. Beide partijen waren onder de indruk van elkaars kunnen en hebben door de samenwerking elkaar naar een nog hoger level geduwd."
"WP Masters en ik werken intussen alweer bijna 8 jaar samen. Net nog voor een museumpresentatie. Maar eerder ook voor tal van verschillende WP projecten. Als ik het bedenk, kunnen zij het mogelijk maken, meedenkend, oplossend, snel, altijd werkend, en met grote betrokkenheid en inzet. "
We start with a thorough analysis of your current link profile, your key pages and the backlinks of your direct competitors. This way we see exactly where the difference lies, which keywords you’re lagging on and which domains give your competitors authority.
Based on the analysis we set priorities together. Which pages need the most authority, which keywords do we want to raise and how many links per month are realistic to reach that goal?
We manually approach relevant Dutch websites and place your link in an editorial article that matches your topic. No link farms or PBNs, only placements that both Google and your audience experience as valuable.
Every month you receive a report with the placed links, the anchor texts and the development of your rankings. Based on that we adjust where needed, so your link building strategy grows along with your results.
Good link building doesn’t start with placing links, but with understanding where you stand and where you want to go. At WP Masters we therefore follow a fixed method, built from four steps. Not separate actions, but a link building strategy where every placed link has a purpose within the bigger plan.
Only if it's approached the wrong way. Google penalises sites that use spammy or paid links without context. We stick to Google's guidelines by only placing relevant, editorially embedded links on real websites. This makes the risk negligible and builds a link profile that holds up under future algorithm updates too.
Yes, and we recommend it too. Link building works strongest in combination with good on-page SEO and quality content. Many clients therefore combine our link building with SEO copywriting or a technical SEO audit, so every new backlink also lands on a page that's ready to rank.
That depends on your competition and your starting position. For a local business with little competition, 2 to 4 strong links a month are often enough. In competitive industries, such as legal advice or fashion webshops, it's more like 8 to 15 a month. We first look at the link profile of your main competitors before advising a number, so you invest neither too much nor too little.
A do-follow link passes authority on to your website, a no-follow link doesn't. For SEO results, do-follow links are therefore more important. A natural link profile, however, always contains a mix of both. We focus on do-follow placements, but don't advise avoiding no-follow links entirely: they belong in a credible profile.
We utilise search data to improve your overall SEO: technology, content, internal links, authority, and the overall experience for your visitors.
