LinkBuilder.com

How much does it cost to publish content on the world's biggest media websites?
🟢 We looked at 10 major media websites, including The New York Times, BBC, Forbes, Reuters, and Business Insider.

The numbers are quite interesting.
Some publications have placement offers starting at under $100, while others cost tens of thousands of dollars.

But price doesn't always correlate with traffic or Domain Rating. And even for the same website, prices can vary significantly between providers.

We've collected the DR, monthly organic traffic, median prices, and lowest available offers for these 10 websites.

All the data comes from Linkbuilder.com, where we currently aggregate placement offers from around 70 providers.

👉Linkbuilder.com has temporarily disabled three marketplaces: iCopify, Adxom, and Vefogix.

The reason is price accuracy. We found that a significant number of the lowest-priced offers were outdated or unavailable when placing orders.

Despite their large databases, these marketplaces' inventories overlap almost entirely with those of our other providers. After disabling them, our database still contains 450,000+ websites, with virtually no impact on website selection.

If you still need access to these marketplaces, we can make them available through our API upon request. However, they will remain temporarily excluded from the main catalog on our website.

We recognize iCopify, Adxom, and Vefogix as major and reliable players in the industry. We’ll stay in touch with them and hope to restore the integrations once pricing accuracy improves.

We also encourage all our partners to strengthen their moderation and price verification processes.

Our priority is reliable data and price comparisons that customers can trust.

One marketplace doesn’t dominate everywhere.

At Linkbuilder.com, we currently aggregate data from around 70 guest post marketplaces, so we decided to compare which platforms have the largest inventories in different countries.

A few days ago, we temporarily deactivated three large marketplaces — iCopify, Adxom, and Vefogix — so they are not included in this comparison.

For example, Adsy currently has the largest database in the US and UK, PaperClub leads in France, Germany, Spain and Italy, while Bazoom has the biggest selection in the Netherlands.

But the number of websites doesn’t always mean that every placement is actually available to buy. Databases can include outdated websites, old prices, unavailable placements, or publishers that no longer accept orders.

Still, this gives a pretty good understanding of where to start when you need placements in a specific country.

And the easiest way to check it is in the Linkbuilder.com catalog: just select the country you need and see websites from all connected marketplaces in one place.

Then compare providers, prices and available placements without checking every marketplace separately.

🛒 One dashboard and one balance for buying paid articles and backlinks

We’ve launched the Cart on Linkbuilder.com.

Now, websites from any of our tools can not only be selected and exported, but also ordered for placement right away.

Simply add the websites you want to your cart, even if they come from different marketplaces, and then:

✅ pay for all placements with one invoice
✅ add your content, links, and anchors
✅ hand the entire placement process over to our team
✅ get recommendations on content and anchor strategy

We handle communication with publishers, manage the placements, and make sure the articles go live.

You no longer need to think about which marketplace a specific website comes from.

70+ marketplaces and providers, one dashboard, one balance, and one payment.

⭐️ We’ve also added Favorites. You can now save interesting websites inside a project and come back to them later.

Soon, we’ll also add convenient reports to the Cart, so you can build website selections and share them with clients, partners, or managers.

Linkbuilder.com now covers the entire workflow:
Find → Compare → Select → Pay → Publish

Link building just got its first AI agent

Meet LinkBuilder AI ✨ - the world's first AI agent built specifically for link building.

For years the job meant the same grind: digging through catalogs, cross-checking metrics, comparing seller prices, building endless spreadsheets. Today that changes.


You brief it like a teammate:

🔹 "Estimate a fair market price for a guest post for my fintech site"

🔹 "Build me a 6-month link building strategy"


And it works on its own:

✅ Searches 400,000+ sites with 5,000,000+ prices from 70+ sellers

✅ Runs Bulk Search, SERP Scanner and Competitors Analysis for you

✅ Estimates fair market prices — so you never overpay for a placement

✅ Builds complete strategies with budgets and timelines

No prompts to learn. No setup. A data-backed shortlist instead of guesses.
Already live in every account, on every plan.

Today marks one of the most important milestones in LinkBuilder.com’s history.

We’ve made a strategic shift.

Our catalog is now fully open to everyone — no subscription required.
All you need is a free registration.

From now on, users can explore the catalog, use all basic filters, and research opportunities across 350,000+ media outlets and websites with transparent pricing data.

We believe this makes LinkBuilder.com the world’s largest marketplace with an open database of guest post websites and prices.

This is much more than a product update.

It is a statement about where we believe the SEO and link building industry should go next:
toward more transparency, better accessibility, and faster, smarter decision-making.

For too long, website placement data has been fragmented, closed, and difficult to compare.
We wanted to change that.

So we did.

Starting today, the data layer is open to everyone.
Paid plans remain focused on professional workflow tools — including Export, Bulk Search, Competitors Analysis, and SERP Scanner — for teams and specialists who need more speed, scale, and depth.

We truly believe this is an important day not only for LinkBuilder.com, but for the wider SEO and link building industry.

Open access to such a large database creates a better market:
more transparent, more efficient, and more accessible for everyone.

This is the future we believe in.
And today, we’re proud to take a big step toward it.
