Link Velocity

TL;DR

Link velocity is the rate at which a site gains new backlinks over time. Sudden unnatural spikes can look manipulative; steady growth looks natural.

How SaaStorm approaches it

We don't manage link velocity as a target. Natural campaigns produce bursts (a PR story lands, a report gets picked up) and that's fine.

What we watch for is unexplained spikes from low-quality domains, which can signal negative SEO or a past vendor's activity.

Turn search visibility into pipeline

We help European SaaS teams build an organic engine across SEO, AEO and content, measured in qualified pipeline.
