The plan

The three plays

1
Annual “State of PrEP Access in America” data study
Lead the pitch: the contract add and the dofollow play.
2
Cornerstone HIV and PrEP explainer cluster
Start now, inside the retainer. A visibility baseline, not a dofollow magnet.
3
Interactive PrEP access-gap map
Phase 2, after the study proves demand and justifies the spend.
The deciding filter

Why the dofollow lens sets the order

Only followed links pass authority. The same filter splits the proven formats.

Real dofollow authority
  • Data studies, interactive maps, locator tools
  • 66% to 95% of referring domains are followed
  • Cited by newsrooms, data publishers, .gov / .edu / .org
  • Innerbody 355, PrEP Locator 394, AIDSVu 287
Visibility, not authority
  • Cornerstone explainers
  • 96% to 99% nofollow (Wisp 1 of 272, Well Project 9 of 259)
  • Links from forums, Reddit, Wikipedia, aggregators
  • Real referral and AI-citation value, kept as a baseline
Play 1 · Flagship upsell

The State of PrEP Access in America

  • Annual by-state study on PrEP access, built on public CDC and AIDSVu data
  • 355 dofollow referring domains proven by the Innerbody template (95% of links followed)
  • Pure PrEP-access content; answers the Month 1 relevance question
  • One-time build plus a small annual refresh: the recurring upsell

Guardrails. Rank states on a real number (not letter grades); launch on public data (Freddie's own data is a v2 enrichment).

Play 2 · Baseline, start now

Cornerstone explainer cluster

  • Four to six medically-reviewed explainers (PrEP efficacy, PrEP vs PEP vs DoxyPEP)
  • Heavy citation volume (150 to 272 RD), but almost all nofollow
  • Runs inside the existing retainer, no contract change
  • Sell it as visibility and AI-citation coverage, not as a dofollow magnet

Every clinical claim cited to CDC or peer-reviewed sources, dated, with a named medical reviewer.

Citations and AI mentions, working inside the retainer from day one.

Play 3 · Phase 2 flagship

The PrEP Access Gap interactive map

  • Consumer-facing map of where PrEP access is thin, reusing the study's data pipeline
  • The dofollow ceiling for map and locator formats: AIDSVu 287, PrEP Locator 394 RD
  • Greenfield: no PrEP provider owns an access map
  • Phase 2: needs a developer, so spend the budget against a format that already earns dofollow links

Lead with the citable static map; treat the find-a-provider locator as a separate, slower track.

Proof over plausibility

What we ruled out, and why the proof gate matters

Policy report cards with letter grades
Hims: 6 RD
InsteadRank states on a real, newsy number.
Corporate “impact” or outcomes pages
Folx: 2 RD
InsteadPackage first-party data as a public study.
A commissioned survey as the flagship
Superdrug: 20 to 40 RD ($5K to $15K)
InsteadHold only as an optional premium add-on.
A standalone live cost or insurer tracker
Maintenance and dispute liability
InsteadMake cost a dated chapter in the study.
