01
Start from a post on your /blog.
The letter is about one page, usually a comparison or a use case already live at yoursite.com/blog. No page, no pitch. If the blog is not up yet, that is the first job.

They link
yoursite.com/blog.
Editors do not add a homepage to a roundup. They add a page about the topic. Viewfy writes that page on your /blog, finds a site that already ranks, and drafts the letter. You read it before anyone else does.

Why a blog, and why a letter?
A pitch without a page is 'please mention us.' A letter about yoursite.com/blog/comparison is 'your list is missing this.' That is the whole product.
You need a page they can add.
Homepages are brochures. Editors, and the engines that read them, want a URL that answers one question. That is why Viewfy hosts yoursite.com/blog and writes the post before any letter goes out.
Links are how you get named.
Google and ChatGPT trust sites that other real sites already cite. A mention on a page those engines already read is how buyers find you when they are not on Reddit.
Cheap links are a delayed penalty.
The same page sold to forty other people is not a mention you can name. Viewfy only writes to sites you would say out loud, and every letter waits for you.
How a link happens
02
Find the site, then throw most out.
Discovery pulls sites already covering your topic, and a judge pass drops the ones that fail the quality floor. A domain that exists to sell links never reaches a letter.
03
A mailbox, or the form.
Viewfy looks for a real address first. When a site has none, and plenty do not, the contact form letter is written and marked so you know which door is being knocked on.
04
Every letter waits for you.
Drafts land in the same approval queue as the thread replies. Approve and it sends. Reject and the domain gets parked. One polite follow up, then it stops.
You read it
before they do.
The letter names one post on your /blog and why that editor’s page is incomplete without it. You edit the sentences. Nothing leaves until you say so.

Your self-hosted CRM roundup is missing one
You listed the hosted ones. The piece on yoursite.com/blog/self-hosted-crm keeps the records next to the product, which is the question your comments keep asking. Happy to send the page if it earns a line.

What will Viewfy not do?
Viewfy will not buy placements from a private network, invent a person to sign the letter, or pitch a site that exists to sell links. The letter comes from your brand, signed as your team.
No private networks, no link farms.
If the site exists to sell links, it is not on the list.
No invented humans.
The letter comes from your brand, signed as your team. Viewfy does not make up a person to put in the From field.
No pitch without a page behind it.
A link request works when there is something worth linking to. That is a post on yoursite.com/blog.
Questions
Do I need a blog first?
Yes. The letter is about a page, not your brand. If you do not have one, Viewfy hosts yoursite.com/blog and writes the post the pitch points at.
What does it cost?
Priced on placements that go live rather than on letters sent. Thirty minutes with the founder and you will have a number for your case.
Can I keep sites off the list?
Yes. Competitors, partners, anyone you would rather not mail. The stoplist is yours to edit and it is checked before every pass.
How do you put him on your product?
Paste your URL and he reads the site, writes his brief, and starts finding the threads where your buyers are asking. You approve, he posts, you ship.
