Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How is Brand Mention different from a Guest Post or Link Insertion?
Guest Post ($125) and Link Insertion ($150) both include a do-follow backlink to your site. Brand Mention ($75) names your company in the article text but does not include a link — it's a lower-cost way to build brand recognition with HDJ's audience when a backlink isn't the goal.
Will I get any link back to my site?
No — Brand Mention includes your company name in plain text only, with no hyperlink. If you'd like a do-follow link, Guest Post, Link Insertion, or Done For You ($200) are better fits.
What counts as a "mention"?
Your company name referenced naturally within the body of a relevant HDJ article — for example, as an illustrative example of a type of business, product, or service. Let us know what you'd like mentioned and our editorial team will work it in where it fits.
What industries and topics qualify?
The same categories that qualify for all HDJ placements — commercial trucking, diesel repair, fleet management, heavy equipment, emissions compliance, parts sourcing, and related trade industries. If you came from our Check Your Link Opportunity tool, your site was already verified as a match.
How does payment work?
After you submit the form, our team reviews your request and sends a payment link within 1 business day. Your mention is placed and published within 1–2 business days of payment being confirmed.
Can I upgrade to a link later?
Yes. If you decide you'd like a do-follow link after all, just submit a separate Guest Post or Link Insertion request — your Brand Mention placement stays live either way.
