- [Instructor] Hey guys so today
I'm gonna be reviewing postaga.com,
and this is basically an
all in one outreach tool
for landing backlinks for your website so,
what you can do is set
up a campaign on Postaga.
It helps you find backlink opportunities
helps you get more shares
if that's what you're into,
or if you're looking
to build relationships
with other webmasters, right?
First of all, backlink
opportunities in your niche.
So it kind of looks at
different ways to prospect
for your site.
Then you can find contacts so,
who do you need to contact
for your outreach campaign?
And you basically get a list of the names
and email addresses
and that sort of thing,
and then how to get more responses so,
you can sort of create your own funnel.
And you can say right,
I wanna send one email
on the first day then I want
to wait for maybe five days,
send another email and you
can automate your whole
email funnel doing that.
So normally when it comes
to link building outreach,
you need lots of different
tools to do this so,
you need like hunter.io
find email addresses
and then address to do the prospects here.
And then lemless.com to
send the outreach emails,
that sort of thing so,
whereas with Postaga,
this is all in one so you
can do it all from one place.
And that's exactly what
I'm gonna show you today.
So let's jump in.
Now it's important to note
there's isn't actually
free when you use Postaga.
So you can see you get a few
different types of accounts
that you can buy.
So there's a free one actually.
With this you get one user,
get lots of different
contacts, email addresses,
but then you can also choose
to have a pro account or
an unlimited agency account.
Now the other thing is as
well, when it comes to Postaga,
you can also send more emails, right?
So with the free account is 100 emails,
but with the pro account is 300
and with the agency account
and you get 300 emails per day.
And you can see the pricing down here.
Okay so let's get started
on creating a new campaign.
And actually what I like about Postaga is
it's pretty easy to set up so
we can do is click on new campaign.
And because I know the type
of link building I wanna do
for my post, I'm gonna click no here,
but what you can do is click yes normally,
and then you can choose
what type of resource
he wants to promote and if you
put that blog post in there,
it will automatically select
the best type of link campaign for you.
But I already know the type
of link building I wanna do.
So we're going to do some
resource link building,
which is basically where
you start building links
by a resources page to your blog, right?
Now what I like about
all the different type of campaigns here,
is that you get an explainer
here, include the arrow down.
And as you can see you
get loads of different
types of link building outreach
so you can actually do.
So that's quite a useful feature.
And what we're gonna do
here is click on resources,
you can also name your campaign
at the top so let's say
resource stress leave link building.
'Cause you have to post what
I'm gonna promote is about
stress leave as you can see here.
So then we can type in the
URL like this and stiil
click analyze post.
And what that would do is break
down the details of the post
as you can see the post title, post site.
So it's at relaxedlikeboss.com.
What sort of keywords you
wanna be searching for,
the categories, and you can also put in
some customer merge fields, right?
So these are like extra
bits of data about your post
you put in into your email copy
when it comes to promoting.
So we'll come onto that
soon and then you can change
the post publish date.
So for example you can say, right,
I've created this new post.
It was published on the
31st of August, 2019.
Here it is.
You can add in those details here.
So it's all pretty basic
and easy to set up.
And then from here you
can start prospecting
for your campaign.
So you can find resource pages
that potentially you could
get a link from, right?
And then you can choose which
date you set those up from,
and even a location.
So if you want to build
links from local pages,
then you could choose custom location.
But for this example, we just
gonna choose default location
and any sort of resource type.
And from here,
you can type in your keywords
that you want to find resource pages from.
So let's say I wanna build links
to this page about stress leave
on resources that
mentioned taking time off
or taking stress leave
that will be more relevant.
And then what this is gonna do
is pull in the prospects in for you now,
usually if you're
prospecting on atrius.com,
it can be really time consuming.
Like you can take an hour or two
just to find relevant prospects
and sometimes it's
quite difficult to find.
So what I like about this is
it just does all the thinking for you.
And if you're not very experienced
with link building outreach then
you can just use (indistinct)
it's a lot quicker.
And from here we have a bunch of resources
that I can approach.
So these are all websites
that I could approach
to get a link to my
page about stress leave.
So let's say we want
to select all of them.
You can do that by clicking here.
And this is still finding
results as you can see.
So it takes a little bit
of time to load to that
simply because it's gonna
analyze a lot of different data
on the internet and then
pull out the relevant results
to your site and to the
blog that you wanna promote.
So what we can do just click select all.
And then if there's any pages
that you don't want to approach,
you can click the tick there.
So scroll down and then
when you're ready to
go onto the next step,
click analyze links here.
And from here, what Postaga is gonna do
is prospect relevant contacts
that you can approach for a link.
So you can add names if you
wanna find a specific person,
but basically these are all contacts
you can approach to get
a link to your site.
So we just gonna let
that load for a minute
and then come back.
And so all the links
have been analyzed now.
And what you can do is click
on get contacts like this,
and this will find all the people
that you can contact
for a link to your site.
So basically Postaga has
analyzed all the links
that are relevant and now
is pulling the contacts
from each of those sites.
So that may take a little
bit of time to load.
And again, we'll come back once it's done.
But as you can see here,
you get a live feed of how
many prospects are left
and then the contact for that site.
As you can see this is for cmbc.com,
you've got the email address,
you've got the Twitter,
and basically all the details you need
to contact these sites.
So we're gonna let that run
and then come back to it soon.
Now one useful feature from
finding the contacts is
you can select different contacts.
So if you don't wanna
contact a certain person,
or you think someone
else is more relevant,
then you can choose that on Postaga right?
So for example,
we've got se.hu here and
then we have four different
types of contacts that we can use, right?
You used to get a rating,
so you can see this is
95 out of a hundred,
so that's a good deliverability rating.
And then you can choose, right,
if you wanna contact someone else instead.
Or do you wanna contact multiple people
from the same website, just
in case someone doesn't reply.
And also really what you wanna do ideally
is go for each contact
and find the most relevant one to you so,
let's say for example you
were trying to contact
the admissions department.
Obviously admissions is
gonna be much more relevant
than Vista app.
So you could choose to
not contact Vista app
and instead contact admissions.
And then from there,
we gonna go onto the email sequence.
So essentially you get a list
of prewritten funnels, okay?
As you can see here,
you can send the email
for your resources page,
wait three days, and
then send another email.
And in section six,
you get a breakdown of what
the copy will look like for
that particular website, right?
So here you get breakdown, click on next,
and what you can do is add
like custom merge data.
You can preview the merge data,
and basically it just saves
you a lot of time cooperating.
So you can edit the
subject line like this.
Maybe you wanna put some
quote marks over the keyword
and then you can edit the text.
Now what I like is that
normally when you're writing an email,
it can take like 30 minutes to
write something decent, okay?
But this is all prewritten for you
and then you can just edit some
bits to make it more unique.
So this is the outreach
email that will be sent,
"Hey there, Julian from
Relax Like A Boss here,
hope your week is going well."
And then you can see that
the details of the post
have already been set and so.
You see their website
here, our websites here,
the name of the post is
super easy to set up.
And then you can also include
(indistinct) custom post
information here too.
But what we're gonna do for this
is just delete it quickly and
leave it like that, right?
And then click save email
overwrite if you've made changes
like this, you can send
the text if you want.
From here let's scroll down
and we've got the rules and scheduling.
So you can basically choose
when you want to send the campaign.
You could launch it right now if you want,
or you can schedule it for a certain date.
You can choose whether you
want these testing mode or not.
So, you know if you're not
confident with the software
and you just want to test
out and see what it's like,
and you can choose testing mode like this.
And then also you can choose, right,
do you wanna send the weekends or not?
And thread messages so,
do you wanna keep all of your
emails in the same thread,
or do you wanna send them
across different threads?
However what I'd say,
is that stick with the default messages,
simply because if you send
loads of different emails
from different threads,
then it's gonna get a bit messy
and you could annoy the
person that you're contacting.
So it's better to keep it
all in one email thread
when the person who sees it,
and then you can also choose right,
do you want to stop the email campaign
when someone replies or keep going?
And finally we have the schedule.
So we've got 34 contacts,
we've chosen when it's gonna
start, which is right now.
And then we just click schedule like this.
And once that's completed, our
campaign will start sending.
It's gonna look something like this.
So in the campaign section here,
you can set up all your campaigns
you can see all the details of them.
And you can see the name, when it started,
the type of link building you're doing,
the status and how many
emails you've lined up
versus how many replied and how
many has she failed to send.
Then you can pause it if you need to
or delete the campaign like this.
So you can see it's quite easy
to set up a campaign using Postaga.
Only takes a few minutes.
Most of the hard work is done for you
so that saves you a lot of time.
The fact that it pulls
in contacts for a useful,
and the fact that it's all
in one means that potentially
you could save a lot
of money using this so,
it's a really good tool,
especially if you're a beginner
to link building outreach.
What I would say if you've
got like a massive agency,
maybe Postaga isn't the
best software for you
simply because, you know,
you need to send thousands of emails and
running a campaign with
only like 58 contacts
might not be the best for you.
However what I'd say is that,
you know, if you've got
a small campaign running,
if you're running a website,
if you've got a small scale campaign,
then Postaga potentially it's
gonna save you a lot of time
and money too because
you don't need to pay
for separate tools you can just
run one campaign from Postaga directly.
So thanks for watching guys
if you got any questions
about Postaga let me know in
the comments section below,
and I hope this review helped you.
