Automated Backlink Outreach — full campaign pipeline is now live

We've launched Automated Backlink Outreach — a complete end-to-end outreach pipeline
that qualifies every domain before sending a single email.

What it does

Upload a domain list from Google Sheets, set your campaign criteria once, and let the
system handle the rest. Every domain moves through 11 automated steps before an email
is sent — and if it fails any check, it gets skipped automatically.

The 11-step pipeline

  1. Upload domains — Pull your prospect list directly from a Google Sheet
  2. Set campaign rules — DA/DR thresholds, spam score limits, target countries,
    timezone, weekdays, and send window
  3. Blacklist check — Removes workspace-flagged domains before any scoring begins
  4. Red-flag content scan — 120+ Google search operators detect adult content,
    drug sites, paid-link farms, write-for-us pages, and sponsored post footprints
  5. Moz DA + spam score filter — Optional. Activate by connecting your own Moz
    API key. Campaign runs normally without it
  6. Ahrefs DR + traffic + country filter — Optional. Connect your own Ahrefs API
    key. Also skippable
  7. Geo exclusion — Skips domains where top traffic comes from your excluded
    countries
  8. Lead generation — Visits each qualifying domain and discovers email contacts
    automatically
  9. Email verification — SMTP ping + syntax check on every lead before sending
  10. AI personalization — Scrapes site category, content type, and business type,
    then personalizes your saved template for that specific site
  11. SMTP send + Sheet write-back — Sends from your connected SMTP, then writes
    Status, Sending Date, and Skipped Reason back to your original Google Sheet

Key numbers

Out of 5,000 domains in a test campaign — 1,240 failed quality filters, 850 had no
verified leads, and 2,910 emails were actually sent. The 42% exclusion rate is by
design.

Important details

  • BYOSMTP — Send from your own Google Workspace, Outlook, or any SMTP provider.
    Your sender reputation stays yours
  • BYOA — Bring your own Ahrefs and Moz API keys. We don't charge for third-party
    API credits
  • Works without APIs — If Ahrefs or Moz keys are not connected, those filter
    steps are skipped and the campaign continues normally
  • No blind sending — A domain that fails any check is excluded entirely. No
    wasted emails, no inbox damage
