Side-by-side comparisons of link-building formats and providers, normalised so you compare like with like, and clear about what nobody can tell you.

How to read our comparisons
Every comparison table on this site uses the same evidence labels. A published termis a price or policy stated on the provider's own page on the date shown. A vendor claimis marketing: guarantees, ratings, “#1” badges. Not publicly confirmedmeans the page we checked didn't say. It never means the provider can't do it.
Comparing like with like
Provider pages rarely use the same units. One quotes per placement, another per post, a third doesn't say. Some “from” prices sit at a much lower metric floor than others. We compare guest posts with guest posts and insertions with insertions, point out where floors differ, and flag promotional prices. We keep monthly retainers out of per-placement tables altogether.
Questions every comparison should answer
- Can you approve sites (and content) before anything is published?
- What's the real turnaround from order to live URL?
- What triggers a replacement or refund, for how long, and what's excluded?
- What's in the report? Live URLs, anchors, attributes and dates?
- Which niches are excluded, and which share the same sites?
