You have client budget but no team capacity, and would rather buy guaranteed placements than build an outreach process.
You want to own the process, keep the margin, control exactly which sites represent your clients, and scale without paying per link.
Bought placements vary in quality. Whichever route you take, judge the site on real traffic, topical relevance and whether the content reads naturally.
Many agencies run their own outreach for most links and buy a few placements for hard niches. Bought links can be logged in LinqDesk with their cost so client budgets stay accurate.
Create your workspace, connect a mailbox, add your first client. Five minutes.
