Competitors are cited or linked from local press and directories that you’re missing from.
Why This Happens
Backlink profiles usually stall because outreach never happened, or because past link-building relied on quantity (directories, low-quality guest posts) rather than genuine relevance and authority.

How Our Link Building & Digital PR Process Works
- A backlink audit to review your current profile and flag anything that should be disavowed.
- A competitor backlink gap analysis to find realistic, relevant opportunities you’re missing.
- Genuine outreach: digital PR, local press relationships, and content worth linking to on its own merit.
- Local citation building consistent with your Google Business Profile NAP.

Link Building & Digital PR FAQ
Do you buy backlinks?
No. We follow Google’s guidelines strictly — no purchased links, no link farms, no schemes that put your site at risk of a manual action.
How many links do I actually need?
Fewer, more relevant links from real, reputable sources consistently outperform a high volume of low-quality links — quality over quantity, every time.
How much does link building cost in Ireland?
Link building and digital PR with SEO Star Agency costs €600–€1,800 a month, depending on how many placements you need and how competitive your market is. Irish agencies typically charge €800–€2,000 a month, or €100–€800 per individual link.
Will I see every link you build?
Yes. You get a list of every link: the publication, the live URL, the date it went live and the page on your site it points to. We re-check links each month, so you know they’re still there.
How long do new links take to make a difference?
Usually two to four months. Google first has to find and index the page carrying your link, and then the trust it passes builds over time. Links to pages that already rank on page two often show results soonest.
