Become a Premium Partner
Free members find partners and swap backlinks. Premium Partners also get a listed, featured business profile that the whole community links to.
Three ways to become a Premium Partner
Finding partners and swapping verified backlinks is always free. For a listed business profile, a membership is the quickest route and puts your brand in front of businesses looking for a partner. Two free routes also exist: link to us from an established website, or make us an affiliate.
Skip the requirements
From $9 a month your brand is listed right away and suggested as a backlink partner to other businesses searching for one, with no backlink and no domain age or site-size requirements.
You also get five complementary partners suggested every Monday: businesses sharing your topics that are not competitors, with a checkbox list and a Send to all button, and a higher backlink invitation allowance.
Link to Brand Share from your website
Add a link to BrandShare.io on your site and get a free Premium Partner listing. Because that link vouches for us, and your listing vouches for you, we ask that your website meets a few standards:
A visible, followable link to BrandShare.io
A normal link on a real page, not hidden and not marked nofollow, sponsored, or ugc.
A domain at least 6 months old
Keeps out throwaway domains created just to farm listings.
At least 10 pages on your site
Shows a genuine business presence rather than a single landing page.
A verified work email on your domain
Confirms you represent the business, e.g. info@yourcompany.com.
Check your website against the standards:
We don't ask for traffic or visitor numbers. Those are private, and most good small-business sites would be judged unfairly by third-party estimates.
Make Brand Share an affiliate
If your business runs an affiliate or referral programme, enrol us in it and you get a listing free, with no backlink and no domain-age or site-size requirements. Your listing carries an Elite Affiliate Partner badge and ranks second in the directory: above the Headline and Spotlight plans, and above every free listing. Only Marquee outranks it.
Sign affiliates@brandshare.io up to your programme
Takes a minute on most affiliate platforms: Impact, Rakuten, ShareASale, Awin, or your own.
Paste the tracking link it gives you
We check it is a real tracking link, not just your homepage.
Your Visit Website button uses that link
Clearly labelled as an affiliate link for visitors, so nobody is misled.
Open your listing from that page and use the manage panel. The affiliate link field is at the bottom. You can change it at any time.
