Question 1

What is LinkSwap?

Accepted Answer

LinkSwap is a trust-based backlink-swap tool for Substack writers and indie newsletter creators. It surfaces relevant writers by topic and lets you approve multiple recommendation swaps at once, so you can build real backlinks in about three minutes a week without cold outreach.

Question 2

Who is LinkSwap for?

Accepted Answer

Substack writers, indie newsletter creators, solo founders, and content marketers who want safe, peer-curated backlinks instead of paid links, link farms, or DM pitches to strangers.

Question 3

Is LinkSwap free?

Accepted Answer

No. LinkSwap is included as a perk for Premium members of Product with Attitude. You sign in with a magic link and your Premium status unlocks the swap dashboard.

Question 4

How are swap partners vetted?

Accepted Answer

Writers in LinkSwap are Product with Attitude members who have opted into the swap pool with declared topics and a public Substack. Matches are surfaced by topic relevance, and every swap is opt-in on both sides. There is no auto-linking, no link buying, and no anonymous participants.

Question 5

How long does a swap take?

Accepted Answer

About three minutes a week. You scan the surfaced matches, approve the ones you want to swap with, and the recommendation goes through. No drafting, no negotiation, no admin.

Question 6

How do I sign in to LinkSwap?

Accepted Answer

Enter your email on linkswap.productwithattitude.com. You will receive a one-time magic link from Resend that signs you in instantly via Supabase Auth. No password is ever required.

Question 7

Does LinkSwap work outside Substack?

Accepted Answer

LinkSwap is designed for Substack writers first, because the swap mechanic maps directly to Substack's native recommendation system. Other newsletter platforms are not currently supported.
