Brooklyn has become a home base for founders, makers and creative studios, and every neighborhood has its own crowd chasing the same customers online. Local backlinks are what tip SEO in Brooklyn your way: links from articles on trusted sites tell search engines and AI assistants that your website is a source worth citing, whether your customers are in Park Slope or Bay Ridge.
On Prensarank you pick each site with its metrics in plain view, we write the article at no extra cost, and half of all orders go live within 24 hours. There is no subscription or contract and sign-up is free, so you can browse sites and prices before committing to anything. Read on to see how the borough's press works, what an article costs and how to choose well.
Links for your Brooklyn website in 3 steps, with free sign-up and no subscription or contract.
Brooklyn reads its news block by block. Brooklyn Paper is a weekly paper and news site owned by Schneps Media, with neighborhood editions for Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, Bay Ridge and more, plus an events calendar and the Best of Brooklyn business awards. Its site also carries stories from amNY, a related citywide title.
That structure is a good map for your links, since each layer sends its own signal:
An article on a site your community reads is the most natural local backlink, and its authority lifts both your SEO and your presence in AI answers. On Prensarank you can compare sites that help your website rank in Brooklyn, with their metrics visible before you buy.
Combine neighborhood coverage, borough and city news, and niche sites in your industry: each layer adds its own signal.
Mix brand, keyword and place anchors of about three words, such as a service plus your neighborhood. You choose the URL and anchor.
Point links at service, product and location pages, not only the home page: in the market, around 60% go to those pages.
One article a month, around €2,000 a year, builds steady authority. Prices rise slightly every year, so starting early pays off.
Brooklyn's campuses, cultural calendar and local guides give you plenty of reasons to publish:
| Opportunity | What it is | How to turn it into links |
|---|---|---|
| Pratt Institute | Art, design and architecture school | A design collaboration or a talk gives creative businesses a story worth an article |
| Brooklyn College, City Tech, Medgar Evers College and LIU Brooklyn | CUNY colleges and Long Island University's Brooklyn campus | Internships, guest lectures or a study you comment on add local news value |
| NYU Tandon School of Engineering | NYU's engineering school in Brooklyn | A tech partnership is a strong hook for an article on a technology site |
| Brooklyn Book Festival | Literary festival held every fall | Joining or sponsoring an activity gives you a timely angle for an article in the weeks before |
| Home Pros and Best of Brooklyn | Brooklyn Paper's home professionals directory and the Best of Brooklyn business awards, voted on by residents | A listing or an award strengthens your local footprint, especially for home and neighborhood businesses |
None of these sells links, but each one gives you a story, and a sponsored article on a relevant site turns it into a link that stays. On Prensarank many sites publish within a day, so your piece lands while the news is still fresh.
