Frequently asked questions
Is Earned Media a boutique PR agency?
Earned Media is an SEO agency, not a PR boutique agency. Digital PR is the intersection between SEO, link building, and PR. We specialise in acquiring high-quality links, creating linkable assets, and reaching out to media channels.

Are all digital PR links nofollow?
Not necessarily. While many news sites and digital PR strategies involve nofollow links. There is also plenty of debate as to whether Google counts some nofollow links as dofollow — and we hold the opinion that some nofollow editorial links carry over link juice.
We have built both nofollow and dofollow links in the digital PR space. For example, links from VentureBeat, Nasdaq, and Benzinga are dofollow. We’ve also built links on reputable sites like Forbes and Entrepreneur, which are nofollow.
Do you charge extra for digital PR links?
Unlike other SEO and PR agencies, we do not charge a premium fee for digital PR links. Instead, we’ll charge a flat monthly rate for all our link acquisition clients.
