What is a Link Request?
A Link Request is a notice sent to a web site re-using the rights holder’s work without acceptable attribution. The notice asks for a link back to the site where the work was originally published.

All Attributor customers are identity-verified and are bound to our terms of service, which prohibit sending unjustified Link Requests. If you believe you have received a Link Request that is inconsistent with our policies, please contact us.
How is a Link Request different than a DMCA notice?
With a Link Request, everyone wins.
  • +
    The rights holder gains a link that is valuable for search engine optimization and direct traffic purposes.
  • +
    The web site copying the content is allowed to keep the content up.
  • +

  • +
    The original author receives attribution for his work.
As a host, why should I send these notices through?
It helps avoid a DMCA takedown notice. Attributor will continue to monitor the site and report back to the rights holder if a link has been added. If it hasn’t, the content owner may decide to send a DMCA notice. They may also ask for removal from search engines and ad networks, who will be obligated to remove it.
Because it’s the right thing to do. The Internet was designed to allow content and ideas proliferate widely - however rights holders still deserve to collect credit and value as their work is re-used across the web. Links are the currency of the web and a way for content creators to collect value for their work, regardless of where it appears across the Internet.
Because it will save you time, money and customers. You can avoid the hassle of DMCA notices and maintain legal certainty - while keeping your customers happy.
