# Link Prospecting Research
Use this skill to find potential link opportunities and produce a research map. Stop at research: do not qualify final targets, send outreach, submit forms, buy links, or promise acquisition.
This skill is derived from Garrett French and Eric Ward's *Ultimate Guide to Link Building* and uses transformed guidance with durable book-topic references. Do not copy book prose into user outputs.
## Quick Start
1. Use the Contents table below to choose the smallest useful reference set.
2. Use `workflows/research-link-prospects.md` for a full prospecting pass.
3. Start from available linkable assets and campaign goals.
4. Build keyword classes, opportunity types, query patterns, competitor backlink angles, list sources, and autocomplete expansions.
5. Return a deduped prospect research map with next qualification steps.
