Who we are
About LinkiTrade
We run a marketplace for individual backlinks, and we write for people who sell things online. That means margins, not mystique.
Why we write for store owners
Most backlink advice is written for agencies and blogs. A shop is a different animal. It has margins, stock, returns and a handful of pages that matter, so the useful question is how many extra orders a link must win before it pays for itself.
Our guides are built on arithmetic. The payback maths page uses an invented store and says so. We would sooner show you the sums than a logo wall, and we label every example as an example.
What the marketplace is
LinkiTrade lets you buy individual dofollow backlinks, editorial placements and link insertions, on real websites that we have checked for traffic. More than 50,000 donor domains are listed, each with Domain Rating, organic traffic, referring domains, niche, language and price.
Prices start at $1 and reach about $500 for top domains. No subscription. You top up a balance in the dashboard and pay per placement.
What a visit to the marketplace looks like
You sign in, set filters for niche, language, minimum traffic and a price ceiling, and scroll rows of donor sites. Nothing is charged while you browse. Add what you like to the basket.
Review the basket and check each target URL and keyword. Then pay from your balance. The placement appears under ordered links with a status, and most go live within about 24 hours, while search engines may take weeks to react.
Publishers use the same site from the other side. They list a domain, set a price, approve each placement and collect weekly payouts.
Accounts also work through the REST API with a Bearer key, so an agency or a busy merchant can script orders. Balance top-ups still happen in the dashboard, never over the API. That keeps a human in charge of the money.
How we work
Our own crawler and index
The metrics on each row come from our own crawler and our own index, refreshed on a schedule. They are estimates, so we advise opening the site and reading it yourself.
Three ways to write the content
Automatic from a URL and keyword, from your own prompt, or your finished article. Automatic articles are AI-written with one clean link to your page.
Orders by API or by agent
REST with a Bearer key, or an AI agent over MCP. An agent can fill the basket, while a human approves the payment.
Publishers can sell too
Site owners set a price, approve every placement and receive weekly payouts.
We do not promise rankings, we do not call anything safe from Google, and we publish no customer results we cannot show. Read our margin check and triage list before spending, even if that costs us an order.
Where the marketplace is limited
A backlink marketplace sells one input to search visibility, and only that. We do not audit your store, fix your product copy or run your ads. Google's own documentation says it ranks pages using many signals, and a link is one of them.
Our metrics are refreshed on a schedule and can lag behind a site that changed last week. For deep keyword research and full link audits, tools such as Ahrefs and Semrush go further than we do, and we are happy to say so.
Questions, corrections and complaints go through the account page, which is the one route we offer for contacting the marketplace. Read the terms and the privacy notice for the formal version.
