Create a free project page, then publish an article with one contextual dofollow link. Free if your site links to Hed Press, or $29.

Hed Press publishes free project pages and editorial publications. A project page links to the product with nofollow. Each publication contains one guaranteed dofollow link. The publication anchor does not use nofollow, sponsored, or ugc. The live URL is the record.

The homepage lists today, yesterday, last week, and last month. Each section shows up to 20 publications. Older pages stay on their category, tag, and project URLs.

## Prices
- **Free (Free).** One free publication per website. A guaranteed dofollow backlink on an editorial page, listed in public. Your site links to hedpress.com — the official badge is optional if the link is inserted naturally.

The domain rating of hedpress.com is 0. A dofollow attribute is guaranteed. A ranking, a traffic number, a citation by an answer engine, and a change in that domain rating are not.

## Questions
### What gets published?

A product story on hedpress.com. Categories and tags file it, the product is named in the page, and one dofollow link sits in a real sentence. Five free pages go live each day at 08:00 UTC. A $29 page goes live the day it is ready and does not take a free slot.

### Why open with a strong lede?

Hed Press is built for the first lines. Readers and answer engines decide in the opener whether the page is worth citing. We edit for a clear who/what/for-whom before the link appears.

### Is the link dofollow?

Yes. Every published page has one dofollow link. The anchor does not use nofollow, sponsored, or ugc. After publish, open the URL and inspect the link. That attribute is guaranteed. A ranking is not.

### What does it cost?

Projects are free. One free publication per website if your site links to hedpress.com (badge optional). More publications are $29. Paid adds SEO/AEO/GEO editing, FAQ schema, agent surfaces, a custom featured image, a Pinterest pin, IndexNow, and schedule-again-for-tomorrow up to 3 times.

### How is Hed Press different from Lede, Listed, or Piece?

Sharp openers and product stories built around a strong lede — so readers and answer engines catch the point in the first lines.
