Guest post on bioviki.com: the site brief

Mid-market at $60: the band where judgement about the site matters more than the invoice.

General-interest publications are the workhorses of a link profile and the easiest place to overpay. The article shape that works is boringly specific: a problem, the method used, what happened, what it cost. A general title with 1k monthly visits survives because it answers questions well, not because it loves contributors, so a piece with nothing verifiable in it gets edited down to a bio link.

Within the General section of the index — 1,576 listings, 39 median DA, 5k median traffic, $70 median price — this placement is 14% below the median on cost and roughly 18% of the index median on audience. Listings in that section range from $30 at the cheap end, so the question is not whether $60 is high for a link, but whether it is high for this one.

Generalist inventory also varies more than any other kind, which is why the numbers in this brief matter more than the label. A 32 DA domain with 1k estimated monthly visits and Do-follow links is a different product from the same DA with a tenth of the traffic, and they are priced too close together in most catalogues.

Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 32 DA and 1k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.

Two comparisons decide whether bioviki.com at $60 is a good buy: this listing against the 1,576 other General entries we index, and against the whole 2,000-site index. The gap between those two answers is where a price is either justified or inherited from a rate card nobody revisited.

Two things the metrics cannot tell you, so we say them plainly: whether the host will still accept a contribution article this month, and whether the section your piece lands in is crawled weekly or monthly. Everything else on this page — 32 DA, 31 PA, 64 DR, 1,000 visits, $60, do-follow — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.

bioviki.com out-ranks 5% of the index on audience size (roughly 18% of the index median) and 6% on authority. The placement costs $60 per thousand estimated visits, and one of the pricier placements in its DA 30-39 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $60 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Thin profiles where diversity matters more than raw authority.
• New domains that need a plausible first set of citations before anything ambitious.
• Agencies filling a monthly quota with links nobody will object to.
• Do not buy this if you need the anchor to be your money keyword and the host is marked Do-follow. Attribute and anchor politics matter less than the page's survival, and a forced anchor is the easiest thing for an editor to change.
• Do not buy this if your profile has no branded searches yet and this is meant to be the single link that changes that. One 32 DA placement on a General site is a start, not a strategy.

Pitch angle: a practical guide that solves one named problem for your market. That is the shape we take to a General audience, because it is the version the host's own editor has a reason to keep.

• Add a heading someone would search A question-style H2 phrased the way the reader phrases it. This is what lets the article rank on its own, which is the difference between a placement that gets crawled weekly and one that gets crawled yearly.
• Send the anchor text in the draft Not afterwards. Once the editor has set the copy, changing the anchor is a new request and a new reason for the link to end up in a bio block.
• Write 900–1,300 words Long enough to be worth crawling and citing, short enough that a real desk will read all of it. Anything longer gets skimmed and trimmed, and trimming is where links go.

Anchor plan for this host

• a descriptive anchor that repeats a phrase the article already uses naturally
• if you already have links from similar sites, vary the anchor shape entirely

• Link attribute on a live example. Not the pitch, not the rate card: the rel attribute on an outbound link in a real article published this month.
• Ownership. Several of the listings in our index turn out to share a publisher or an ad network. Relevance does not multiply when five links come from one hand, so we check the footer, the registration and the ad slots.
• Editorial activity. A site with 1k monthly visits and nothing published in six months is a decaying asset, and decaying assets get dropped from the index in batches.
• What happens on removal. bioviki.com is covered by the same 12-month replacement terms as every other listing, which means a dropped link is rebuilt and re-reported rather than argued about.

1. You send the target URL and your angle The page you want the link to point at, the subject, and any author you want credited. Five minutes of input.
2. We confirm availability on bioviki.com Publisher slots move week to week, including on 32 DA properties. Nothing is promised until the section and the placement URL are confirmed, and we tell you before you pay if the slot has gone.
3. You approve the brief and the shortlist Where the host gives a choice of section or existing article, we send options with the numbers that matter: traffic, indexation, neighbours.
4. The article is drafted and edited for the host Written for bioviki.com's audience rather than for your keyword, then checked against the site's own style before submission.
5. The host publishes; we verify the live URL Placement live, correct target, link attribute as recorded, indexable. Only then does the order count as delivered.
6. You get the report, and the replacement cover starts PDF and CSV with the live URL, anchor, placement date and target page. Twelve-month replacement on the link itself, no ticket required.

Rates on this kind of listing drift with the host's own demand, so $60 is a current figure rather than a locked one. Volume changes the maths: a second placement on the same domain is usually refused, whereas a second placement across the General section of our index at the same budget is easy to arrange.

What comes with this placement

• One contextual placement inside an article written for bioviki.com's audience, not a link directory entry.
• The article itself, drafted to the host's style and edited before submission.
• Anchor and target page exactly as approved in the brief, or the placement is not counted.
• Live-URL verification, with a dated record of the placement.
