Median time from outreach to live placement is 34 days — most teams budget for 7
Across 2,100 successful placements (n=2,100, 2024), planning failure number one is assuming links go live the week you pitch.
Timeline distribution:
— Outreach to reply: median 6 days
— Reply to agreement: median 11 days
— Agreement to publish: median 17 days
— p75 total: 58 days
Quarterly link goals built on a 1-2 week cycle miss because the pipeline runs a month deep.
Plan campaigns on a 5-week median lead time and start outreach a full quarter ahead of when you need the rankings.
