We make it findable
Built to rank for your name: on-page structure, structured data, a profile page and same-day submission to Google. Then we check.
The authority problem
People check before they call. What do they find?
Prospects search your name before they reply. Investors search before they take the meeting. Partners, recruiters and journalists all do the same. If the first page is empty, out of date or out of your control, the conversation starts on the back foot.
An empty first page reads as unproven
No coverage, no profile, nothing that says someone else thought you were worth writing about.
A borrowed logo wall reads as marketing
"As seen in" badges with nothing behind them are checked more often than you think.
A real feature reads as credibility
A dated article on a magazine with a masthead, an author and a permanent URL, that ranks when your name is searched.

How it works
From brief to live feature in days, not months.
The same six steps for every client, mirrored on an internal checklist for every publication.
-
A short brief: your name exactly as people search it, what you do, your website and profiles, and a headshot. Ten minutes, no pitch deck.
You can start from the form or book a call if you would rather talk it through.
-
We recommend the publication, or publications, that fit your market and goal, and the angle that gives readers a reason to keep reading.
Business, regional, entertainment or lifestyle. One title or several.
-
Our editorial team drafts an original feature. You review it, request changes, and nothing is published without your sign-off.
Original copy only. No invented awards, rankings or credentials.
-
Your feature goes live on the agreed title with a clear disclosure, your imagery, your links and a profile page for the subject of the piece.
Guaranteed live within 72 hours of your approval, or your money back.
-
Your name sits in the headline, the URL, the first paragraph and the image alt text. Structured data is validated and the URLs are submitted to Google the same day.
This is why our features are found, not just published.
-
You receive the live link, a PDF copy, "Featured in" badges and quote cards. We check where you rank for your name at day 7 and day 30 and send you the data.
If the feature is not ranking by day 30, we strengthen it or publish a second piece.

Why coverage matters
A feature is an asset, not an announcement.
Trust that converts
Send the link before a sales call, add the badge to your site, pin the quote card. Coverage shortens the distance between first contact and yes.

Questions
Straight answers.
Is this real editorial coverage or a sponsored feature?
It is a sponsored feature written by our editorial team and published on one of our core publications, with a clear disclosure on the page. We do not pretend otherwise, and you should not either. What you get is a professionally written, permanently hosted, indexable feature about you that reads like a magazine piece because it is one.
How fast will my feature go live?
Within 72 hours of your written approval of the draft. Most go live sooner. Drafting usually takes two to four business days after we receive your brief, depending on how quickly you respond to questions and review the copy.
Do I have to write it myself?
No. You give us a short brief and we write an original feature. You review it, ask for changes, and approve it. If you already have copy you would like us to work from, we can edit it to house style.
Will it show up when someone Googles my name?
That is what every feature is built for: your name in the headline, URL, first paragraph and image alt text; NewsArticle and Person structured data; a profile page on the publication; and same-day submission to Google Search Console. We check your ranking at day 7 and day 30 and send you the data. Rankings depend on how competitive your name is, so we do not promise a position, but if a feature is not ranking by day 30 we strengthen it or publish a second piece.
What is the money-back guarantee?
If your approved feature is not live on the agreed publication within the agreed window, you get a full refund. The exact terms, including what counts as approval and what happens if you delay sign-off, are in our refund policy.
Can I use the publication logo on my website?
Yes. Every feature comes with a "Featured in" badge kit for the title you appeared in, plus the live link. We ask that you only use logos of titles you were actually published in.
