The definition
Outreach software that speaks link building.
Generic cold email tools are built for sales. Pink Post is built for the way outreach actually works for bloggers and SEOs: pitching editors, negotiating a placement fee, and making sure the link you paid for is still there next month.
One click
Six link-building playbooks, ready to send.
Guest post, link insertion, broken link, resource page, skyscraper and partnership. Each Quick template creates a full sequence with follow-ups, placeholders and spintax.

Threaded conversations from all your mailboxes, quoted text stripped, labelled automatically.

From Contacted to Link live, with fees, link URLs and live checks.
Pitch playground
Type a site. Watch the pitch write itself.
This is the real Guest post Quick template syntax: {{placeholders|fallbacks}} and {spintax|variations}. Every reroll is a different, human-sounding email.

Features
Everything an outreach campaign needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Quick campaign templates
Go from blank page to a ready-to-send link-building sequence in one click.
Multi-step sequences with conditions
Follow up automatically, at the right moment, without spreadsheets or reminders.
Stop on reply, bounce and unsubscribe
Nobody ever gets a "just bumping this up" after they already answered.
A/B subject lines
Find out which subject line actually earns replies, not which one you like.
Spintax variations
Every email reads a little differently, which looks more human and helps deliverability.
Placeholders with fallbacks
Personal at scale, and never an embarrassing "Hi {{first_name}}," when data is missing.
Warm-up ramp
New mailboxes start slow and build reputation instead of getting flagged on day one.
Daily and hourly limits with random delays
Send like a person, not a script, and keep each mailbox well under provider limits.
Send windows and timezones
Land at the top of the inbox during your prospect's working hours.
Multiple accounts and rotation
Scale volume safely by spreading it across several mailboxes.
Bring your own key (free SMTP relay)
Send through a free relay such as Brevo with your own key, so you control cost and reputation.
Unified inbox with threads
Every reply from every mailbox in one place, with the full conversation.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Is Pink Post really free?
Yes. Every feature is free for all users until October 31, 2026. Pricing after that has not been announced yet; we will announce it on the pricing page before anything changes, and you can export all your data at any time.
Will my emails land in spam?
Nobody can promise inbox placement, but Pink Post gives you the tools that matter: warm-up ramp, daily and hourly limits, random delays, send windows, plain-text emails with tracking off by default, a DNS checker for SPF, DKIM and DMARC, and automatic pause on high bounce rates.
Which email providers work?
Any provider that offers SMTP and IMAP, such as Gmail and Google Workspace (app password or OAuth), Zoho, Hostinger, Outlook and most hosting mailboxes. You can also send through a relay like Brevo with your own SMTP key.
Do I need technical skills?
No. If you can copy a DNS record and paste an SMTP password you can use Pink Post. Our step-by-step guides walk through every screen.
How is this different from Respona or Instantly?
Respona is now a done-for-you service that sells link placements per result (from $100 per link as of October 2026). Instantly is cold email software for sales (from $47/mo). Pink Post is outreach software you run yourself for blogger and link-building pitches, with your own mailboxes and relay key, and it is free until October 31, 2026.
Is my data safe?
Your prospect lists are never shared or pooled. Stored passwords and API keys are encrypted at rest, and you can export or delete your data whenever you want.
Free until October 31, 2026
