Link building done right: ethical, sustainable, and aligned with how AI engines decide which sources to cite.
Why Choose Agile
for Off-Page SEO
Quality Backlinks, Not Volume
We acquire backlinks from reputable websites and publications, not low-quality networks. The goal is a backlink profile Google trusts and AI engines reward, not a thousand toxic links that need disavowing later.
Trust Signals AI Engines Use
AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity decide which sources to cite based on authority signals: who links to you, who mentions you, and where your brand appears in industry databases. We build all three.
Topical Relevance
Backlinks from sites topically relevant to your industry build category authority. We position your business as a trusted entity in your niche, which is exactly what Google and AI engines reward in 2026.
Entity Authority and AI Citations
Off-page SEO is no longer just about backlinks. We build entity authority through Wikidata, Knowledge Graph signals, industry directory listings, and citations in publications AI engines pull from. The result: your brand cited in AI Overviews and ChatGPT answers.
Our Off-Page SEO Services
Modern off-page SEO covers more than link building. We deliver every authority signal Google and AI engines use to decide what to rank, cite and recommend.
White-Hat Link Building
Custom outreach campaigns to acquire genuine, high-quality backlinks from sites in your category. No PBNs, no link farms, no shortcuts that get you penalised.
Local Citation Management
Consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) across top directories. Critical for local SEO and for AI engines verifying your business is real and active.
Google Business Profile Optimisation
Full GBP optimisation: categories, services, posts, photos, Q&A, reviews. The single biggest local SEO ranking factor, and a primary signal for “near me” AI queries.
Brand Mention Monitoring and Leverage
Find unlinked brand mentions across the web and convert them into citations or links. Each one strengthens entity recognition and authority signals.
Broken Link Building & Guest Posting
Reclaim broken links pointing at competitors, plus authority guest posts on industry-relevant publications. Two of the most effective ways to acquire links naturally.
Entity and Citation Authority Building
Wikidata entries, Knowledge Graph optimisation, industry database listings, and citations in publications AI engines reference. The off-page work that gets your brand into AI search answers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is off-page SEO?
Off-page SEO involves optimisation techniques outside your website to improve search engine rankings, such as link building, social media marketing, and brand mentions.
How does off-page SEO differ from on-page SEO?
Off-page SEO and on-page SEO differ in their focus and the areas they optimise.
On-page SEO involves refining elements within your website to enhance search engine rankings and improve user experience. This includes:
- Content optimisation: Crafting high-quality, keyword-rich content.
- HTML structure: Fine-tuning titles, meta descriptions, and headers.
- Internal linking: Establishing a logical and navigable site structure.
- Technical aspects: Boosting page load speed and ensuring mobile-friendliness.
Off-page SEO, by contrast, centres on actions taken outside your website to strengthen its reputation and authority. Key elements include:
- Backlink building: Securing high-quality links from trustworthy websites.
- Social media engagement: Promoting content and interacting with users on social platforms.
- Brand mentions: Gaining citations from other websites, even if they don’t include links.
- Online reputation management: Monitoring and enhancing how your brand is perceived online.
The main differences between on-page and off-page SEO are:
- Control: You have greater control over on-page factors, whereas off-page elements rely on external sources.
- Time to impact: On-page adjustments can yield quicker results, while off-page strategies often take longer to show their full effect.
- Focus: On-page SEO prioritises content quality and technical optimisation, whereas off-page SEO is about building authority and credibility.
Both on-page and off-page SEO are essential for a well-rounded SEO strategy, working in tandem to improve your website’s visibility and rankings in search engine results.
