If you remember several years ago, sponsoring Wordpress themes and having your link placed in the layout was a popular way to get tons of free backlinks. That is, until people started catching on and removing the links and Wordpress stopped indexing sponsored themes.

What I am offering is the development of sponsored plugins, which have benefits far greater than sponsored themes.

  1. Wordpress.org is a PR 9 domain and they link back to plugin homepages.
  2. The plugin will output a "powered by" type link back to your site anywhere it's installed. With a popular plugin, this could generate thousands of backlinks - the Wordpress Stats plugin has 400,000 downloads.
  3. Users aren't as savvy to editing plugins to remove your link, so it is much more likely your link will stay.

What I am offering:

  1. Development of Wordpress plugins, with you credited for the links
  2. Ideally you provide the idea for the plugin. Just browse existing plugins and see what's popular. The plugin must be something that is displayed so your link can be dropped into the page.
  3. I will follow their plugin hosting procedure to get your plugin listed on Wordpress.org. Important: This is subject to their whims and timing, so I can't guarantee placement, although it shouldn't be a problem.

I may be letting out a solid SEO tactic, but many other plugins already take this approach. I will have some basic standards to ensure your requests aren't too obviously spammy where Wordpress.org editors will not accept them.

I will be charging based on development complexity. I already have one plugin developed and one in the works. PM me if you're interested and I will tell you what they are or quote you a price on your own ideas.

You can also hire me to develop non-sponsored plugins for purposes other than SEO.
