Haro uses a simialr web ranking system to accept sites on their platform.. The average DA/DR of links using the site is between 50-70. Some queries are anonymous so you won’t know the DA/DR;
Yes, 90% of links are followed. Nofollow are still useful. We recommend a small smattering of nofollow to keep a link profile looking natural
Yes, sometimes they are syndicated or you get 2 different comments quoted on the same domain due to them not publishing or letting you know of the link before you pitched again.
Dependent on the niche, between 6 – 12 weeks. Most publications (with exceptions) don’t publish for a few weeks. However, once the first links land, it has the momentum needed so they are more consistent.
With more difficult niches, there are fewer callouts so the pitch volume is lower, plus the niche is less likely to be linked to from reporters, so you need to send more emails.
Depending on your type of business it can be feast or famine/ Sometimes hyper-relevant niches opportunities are few and far between, so you can also pitch for more general/business-aligned ones.
