Maya
How do I find partner stores?
Open Network and browse Suggested stores. Each card shows the store's Moz DA, top country and vertical, with an Invite button.
Liam
How many posts does one agent run create?
One. Each run writes a single complete guest post: topic, outline, article and featured image. Recurring agents write one per run.
Yassine
Why should I host other stores' posts?
Hosting keeps the exchange fair: stores that host make the network bigger, so there are more eligible hosts for everyone's posts.
Maya
Do guest post backlinks help Shopify SEO?
Relevant backlinks from real stores are a strong signal for search engines. Backlinker earns them through guest posts on partner blogs.
Liam
How many credits does one guest post cost?
About 7 credits with existing web images (5 for writing + 2 for the image) or about 10 with AI generated images (5 + 5).

Why can't I create an agent yet?
Agents need at least 5 accepted connections. Invite suggested stores on Network or turn on automatic connection requests.
