    Digital PR & Link Outreach

    for local service businesses in Vancouver WA and Portland OR

    Getting your business mentioned on real regional sites — associations, suppliers, local press — by giving them something worth writing about.

    From $497

    Can I just pay someone to put my business on a bunch of websites?

    You can, and it is the fastest way to end up on a pile of sites nobody reads. What counts is a mention on a place that already matters here: a trade association, a supplier, a chamber, a local news outlet. Those are earned by being useful to the person publishing, which takes longer and lasts.

    What this actually includes

    Digital PR and link outreach maps the trade associations, suppliers, chambers, and local news outlets already covering your industry, then pitches each one individually from your own domain to earn a mention that was never bought.

    First we map who already writes about your world in this region. Trade associations, supplier and manufacturer dealer pages, chambers, neighborhood groups, local news desks, and the handful of regional blogs that still publish. That list is specific to your trade and your county, not a national database.

    Then we find the reasons to reach out. A dealer or certified-installer page you qualify for and never claimed. A supplier that lists partners. A sponsorship you already pay for that never linked back. A seasonal story a local desk covers every year that you can speak to.

    Outreach is written one message at a time and sent from your domain. No mass sends. Where an asset is needed — a short data note, a plain explainer, a photo set from a job — we produce it.

    You get a monthly log: who was contacted, what was offered, who replied, and what published with the live URL. We report the misses too. Nothing here is bought, and we will not put your name on a paid link network.

    Who this is for

    An established company well known locally but nearly invisible online fits here, especially roofing and commercial HVAC contractors who qualify for supplier and manufacturer dealer pages they have simply never claimed as a certified installer.

    Reputation built over years does not automatically show up in a search, and that gap is exactly what this suits: an established company genuinely known locally and invisible online. Twenty years of work, a full yard, and a website almost nobody links to.

    Roofing and commercial HVAC contractors have the most to work with, because manufacturers, certification bodies, and suppliers all maintain pages that will list a qualified installer. Half of that is claiming what you already earned.

    It is the wrong service for a brand-new business with nothing to point at yet. Get the listing right and the site built first — Citation Building and Organic SEO Services come before this.

    This is slow and lumpy. Some months two things publish, some months nothing does. We will not fill a quiet month with junk placements to make a report look busy.

    How it works

    What the free audit reveals is who currently mentions you and what competitors have that you lack. Setup builds a target list you approve, then monthly outreach and follow-ups continue with results logged by live URL.

    Outreach without a target list is wasted email, so the first step is finding who currently mentions you and what your competitors have that you do not. That comes from the free audit, no card, no contract, delivered within 24 hours.

    Setup builds the target list and the angle for each one, reviewed with you so nothing goes out in your name that you would not say.

    Then it is steady outreach every month, follow-ups on the ones that went quiet, and the log of what landed. Flat rate, no contract, no setup fee.

    You approve the target list before anything is sent, and you can strike any publisher off it. Some months the useful move is a single conversation with a supplier rather than ten emails to strangers. The log tells you which it was, including the months where the honest answer is that nothing published.

    Clark County publishers and Portland-side publishers are different lists with different editors, so CitedLocal pitches Vancouver WA, Portland OR, Camas, Washougal, Orchards, Hazel Dell, Minnehaha, and Cascade Park as separate audiences, not one region.

    We do outreach for owners in Vancouver WA and Portland OR, plus Camas, Washougal, Orchards, Hazel Dell, Minnehaha, Cascade Park, Ogden, Forest Ridge, Meadow Homes, Vancouver Heights, Evergreen Highlands, and Ellsworth Springs. Clark County publishers and Portland-side publishers are different lists with different editors, and pitching both the same way fails at both. Operating since 2012 from Vancouver, WA 98664.
