How to find niche blogs for backlinks

A niche blog worth pitching ranks for your keywords, publishes on your topic and links out to other sites. These steps find them by hand; NicheMentions runs the same steps for you.

1. List your keyword clusters

Group the searches your buyers make by topic. A backpacking gear shop might have "ultralight tents", "thru-hiking gear lists" and "family trail guides".

2. Search each cluster

Run the searches in Google and note the blogs on the first two pages. Skip big publishers and stores; keep sites run by one person or a small team.

3. Check the cited pages too

Ask ChatGPT and Perplexity the same questions and add the pages they cite.

4. Filter

Drop domains below the authority you want and sites whose articles never link to other sites.

5. Find the person

Look for an editor or owner name and an address on the about or contact page, then verify it before you send.
