Any links we report on in our backlink report will be confirmed dofollow backlinks from our publisher network, along with a canonical that points back to your site as the original source.
That said, given the scope of our network and the reach of our stories, you are likely to get other backlinks that are not in this same format or pulled by our team since we're getting in front of so many journalists.
It's not uncommon for our clients to get derivative links or derivative stories told by publishers not in our network after they saw our stories elsewhere and decided to republish or reference them. We're investing in tracking mechanisms for these sorts of links, but as of right now, we're primarily focused on the dofollow links/canonicals from our publisher network.
