Better accountability
Every purchased link belongs inside a live monitoring workflow, not a forgotten spreadsheet.
Track first. Buy second.
Buy links only after you can track them.
ReferralAuthority is a tracked-link marketplace for serious SEO teams. Install LinkCheck.app first, establish your monitoring baseline, and then unlock access to safer link buying inside a controlled workflow.
Free setup first. Marketplace access comes after basic tracking setup.
The problem
Untracked link buying is where good spend turns into silent risk.
Most link buyers do due diligence before purchase and then lose visibility after delivery. Links drop. Pages change. Indexation shifts. Ownership changes. Internal reporting weakens. And when nobody is tracking the asset, nobody knows what actually needs attention.
ReferralAuthority is built around a stricter rule: if a team is not willing to monitor links after placement, it should not be buying them in the first place.
The operating rule
Install the tracking layer first.
LinkCheck.app is the required first step before marketplace access. Create a free account, import your backlinks, and establish the monitoring baseline that serious SEO teams need anyway. Once that foundation is in place, ReferralAuthority can qualify you for marketplace access.
- Create your LinkCheck.app account
- Import existing backlink data
- Establish your monitoring baseline
- Complete qualification for marketplace access
- Buy and monitor links inside the same accountable workflow
Safer by design
Why serious teams choose a tracked marketplace instead of a normal link vendor
Better reporting
Agencies and in-house teams can show what is live, what changed, and what needs action.
Better buyer fit
The gate filters out careless buying behavior that creates unnecessary risk.
Better retention
Link tracking stays useful after purchase, not just during vendor selection.
Workflow
How it works
Start with LinkCheck.app
Open a free account and import your existing backlinks so you can see your baseline before buying anything new.
Complete basic setup
Confirm the minimum tracking setup needed for marketplace readiness.
Request marketplace access
Qualified users can unlock or request access to buy links within the tracked workflow.
Monitor every purchased link
Tracking continues after placement so your team can protect spend, report clearly, and act on changes.
Proof + standards
Proof and standards still matter. They just are not the whole story.
ReferralAuthority keeps the diligence serious buyers expect: public standards, documented safeguards, and proof that the operation is selective by design. The difference now is that pre-purchase proof is paired with post-purchase monitoring.
Marketplace access starts after LinkCheck.app setup
ReferralAuthority only opens buying access to teams that install the tracking layer first. Set up LinkCheck.app, establish your baseline, and then move through qualification.
Buyer fit
Built for teams that need link buying they can defend later
This model fits SEO agencies, in-house SEO teams, consultants, and operators who need portfolio-level visibility. If your team wants one-off, untracked link buying, ReferralAuthority is not the right fit.
Set up the tracking layer. Then unlock marketplace access.
No anonymous ordering path. No untracked placements. No guessing after delivery.
