The ranking gap between you and your competitor is most often an authority gap — and authority comes from links.
We built the Battle Links service specifically after watching client after client get burned by agencies selling cheap link packages. The placements looked like links. They had high Domain Rating numbers. And they did almost nothing for rankings because Google had long since devalued the authority those sites pass — if it ever trusted them at all.
Our vetting process is rigorous. Before we place a link, we check the publication's DR, its organic traffic trajectory, the editorial quality of existing content, whether it appears to exist primarily as a link-selling operation, and whether Google trusts it enough to rank its own content competitively. Sites that fail any of these checks do not make it into our placements, regardless of their claimed metrics.
For Italian businesses, we have developed particular depth in Italian national press placements (Corriere della Sera, La Repubblica, Il Sole 24 Ore), regional Campanian and southern Italian publications, Italian vertical media across hospitality, food, legal, property, and finance, and cross-border European placements for businesses targeting markets beyond Italy.
Every Battle Links report is transparent: the live URL, the publication, the DR and organic traffic at time of placement, the anchor text used, and the surrounding editorial context. If a link is removed within 12 months of placement, we replace it on a comparable publication at no charge.
Studio Legale Ferrante in Caserta grew from DR 8 to DR 52 in 7 months through 64 editorial placements across Italian legal media, regional Campanian press, and national business publications.
A Naples e-commerce retailer moved 61 commercial terms from pages 3–8 to page one within 5 months of starting a targeted Battle Links programme in parallel with on-page work.
