What do I need to contribute?+
At least 10 websites for real local businesses that you have permission to manage. Each site needs a verified Google Business Profile connected to it and must complete the co-op’s checks and connection setup.
What do founders receive?+
Founding agencies never pay the monthly membership fee for the websites they contribute during the founding phase. Members who join later pay a monthly subscription for each website they add. Either way, each accepted website earns one included link each month. Extra links and future commercial products are not included in this offer.
When does the four-day campaign begin?+
Our team will announce the campaign start. Applying does not start a personal countdown. We’ll confirm your setup deadline before the campaign begins.
What if I can’t finish in four days?+
Only promise what you can actually contribute. If you do not complete setup and add your committed sites within four days, we reserve the right to release your spot to the next agency. If the timing is not right, join the waitlist instead.
I already have sites in the system. Do I add them again?+
No. Sign in with your existing account. We’ll review your existing sites against the founder requirements so you don’t need to submit the same websites again.
Do two businesses have to link directly to each other?+
No. References are staggered across the network. A business can contribute to one relevant article and receive a reference from a different publisher. Each placement still needs a useful, relevant context.
What does contributing a website involve?+
You allow a helpful contextual addition in a relevant existing article, with a reference to another participating business. The topic, surrounding paragraph, and destination must make sense together. Add your business details and preferred destination pages first, then complete GBP checks and website connection.
When will my links appear?+
Once your sites are accepted, connected, and matched with suitable articles. We coordinate contribution and placement over time, not all at once. Joining does not guarantee immediate placements, rankings, or traffic.
What happens when the founding group fills up?+
Founders access closes at 50 participating agencies or 1,000 sites, whichever comes first. Later applicants can join the waitlist. Future rounds will require a monthly membership fee; final commercial terms will be shared before you decide to join.
