A statistics roundup earned 89 links by being the citation source
Marketing-tech client, single 'X statistics' page, tracked 18 months, n=89 referring domains, almost entirely passive.
Why it compounded:
— Ranked #1-3 for '[topic] statistics 2024'
— Writers cite stats and link the source — so it earned links automatically every time someone wrote on the topic
— 81 of 89 links were unsolicited
Maintenance cost: ~4 hours/year updating figures to keep it ranking. Effective cost across 18 months landed near $9/link including the initial build.
The page works because it sits at the start of other people's research — the link is a byproduct of being the source they quote.
Build and rank one 'statistics' hub per niche — it becomes a passive citation magnet that compounds for years.
