I have 10 year old profile on Upwork, you can generate also lots of remote work opportunities from Linkedin and Facebook. Call me for a short consultancy call.
You get started quickly on platforms like Upwork, Freelancer.com and etc to start earning quick money by sharing your skills.

Using your social media platforms as a micro-influencer and making profits from that
Currently, I have 4 independent revenue streams. Please call me I will teach you practical tactics that will take hours to get started.
I reviewed some of your videos and they are impressive. First of all, I would like to know why you think times are changing since SEO and PPC are still million-dollar strategies for lots of B2B companies if everything is done well.
CMOs and marketing directors ---- you can reach them on websites that are actually valuable for them and they spend lots of time. So the following channels can be part of your targets:
1. Agency review websites. When it comes to hiring a new agency CMOs and marketing directors do searches and screening on agency review websites like Clutch, UpCity and etc to find their next great vendor. If you don't have a solid profile in such websites you should review your strategy on how you appear there for your target.
2. Google
On Google they search all their challenges, starting from how to increase the ROI, up to how to start with video strategy, how to measure it, how to find vendors, how to beat the competition etc. If you can answer to those questions then most probably you can be their preferred vendor too.
3. PPC
Of course, they are on Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram, Reddit, Quora (you can answer to Q/A organically and build your brand too)
4. Marketing blogs / Influencers
Of course, they follow Neil Patel, Gary Vee. They read articles on Forbes, Search Engine Land, Hubspot Marketing Blog, etc. If your business is mentioned in those blogs then you get lots of high-quality refferal traffic to your website.
5. Networking / Social Groups
On Facebook and on Linkedin there are lots of great social networks where CMOs and marketing directors exchange valuable information. You should be cautious not to spam and give value first with all your posts and recommendations.
I'm an agency owner myself and have worked with a couple of hundred of CMOS and marketing directors. Give me a call to discuss your strategy and your options in greater detail to ensure your growth is predictable and scalable with whatever approach you want to invet in.
Hey,
I am CEO @ Incredo (www.incredo.co) and we do app marketing for start-ups
Assuming you have already on Google Play or Appstore you may consider submitting your app to other marketplaces as well. There are various other app stores on the online market where you can upload your app. According to One Platform Foundation, if an app is submitted on other relatively less popular stores, it will increase the expected downloads 200% more compared to Google Play.
These are some very good app stores that you should consider:
--GetJar
--SlideMe
--Opera Mobile Store
--AppsLib
--Amazon Appstore
--AppBrain
Participating in app awards is the most recommended channel and I would highly suggest you take advantage of it. It can give you tons of press, exposure, reviews and plenty of downloads. Although the chances of winning very much depend on your pitch and app idea, however, if you manage to get things right the first time, you can expect to enjoy a little stardom.
These are some of the most famous app awards sites:
--Appy Awards
--Best App Ever Awards
--AppCircus competition
--Apple Design Awards
--Appsters Awards
--Ericsson Application Awards
--The Webby Awards
--Best Mobile App Awards
--OZApp
Hope these help.

The best strategy is
1. Keep working on that landing page and add more content. Try to interview some influencers, add some facts and statistics, add Q/A section if it is missing
2. Keep working on getting backlinks. There are lots of ways to generate backlinks. If you do #1 WELL your chance of getting strategic backlinks will be higher
Extra Tip! Set up Google Webmasters and monitor or your page is performing in Google over time
If you have any questions would be happy to help
Here is your best practice, step by step:
First of all, let's understand what ''high PR backlinks'' mean?
Getting high PR backlinks is almost equivalent of getting high PR relationships with high PR people.
At the end of the day humans (even those who work in Washington Post, New York Times, Mashable ---- top websites to get backlinks from, they are humans too).
So in order to get what you have the following 3 options
1. Hire somebody who have already built these relationships. They have a proof and there is a context /fit between their relationships and your business.
2. Hire somebody / an agency who is going to build the relationships together with you. Make some template emails and email sequences with the. Build your desired website pages together with your agency and let them do the work, share reports with you, forward the emails and responses they are getting and hopefully get it done after some hard work
3. Build the relationships yourself. Since your time is valuable you need to manage some staff
So I think the second option is the best option for you! Instead of finding a platform do the following steps:
1. Find a marketer / agency who understands your industry and has at least some 5-6 years experience working
2. Let them do some research and find a list of influencers and websites that would be attainable to get backlinks from
3. Filter the list together and give your final approval
4. Let the agency / freelancer make some email outreach templates and offerings? What do high PR websites get when they are linking to you? Do their visitors get a valuable recommendation when they refer to you?
5.Let them start the networking and analyse analyse analyse. Analyse what works, who are more open to work with you and adjust your upcoming lists and email templates accordingly
