Outreach Step-by-Step

1.Google Search Keywords

Search for keywords related to your product (e.g., “best math solver,” “top math tools,” “math problem solver list,” etc.).

2.Filter High-Quality Websites

Review the top-ranking results, prioritizing:

  1. Websites with high-quality content (e.g., blogs, educational resources, tech media, etc.)
  2. Websites ranked on the first or second page
  3. Websites with list-based content (Listicles) or recommendation-style articles

3.Find contact information

  1. Check the “About” or “Contact” pages on the website
  2. If it's a blog author, look for an email address or social media account at the bottom of the page or in the sidebar
  3. Use tools like Hunter.io or Clearbit to find publicly available email addresses associated with the domain

4.Send an email to contact them

  1. Use our prepared email template
  2. If there is an affiliate program or sponsorship budget, mention support for collaboration or paid models in the email

5.Follow up

  1. If you don't receive a response within 3-5 days of sending the email, you can send a follow-up email once
  2. We recommend using email tools (such as GMass or Mailtrack) to track email opens and replies
