Placing a link on eshikshakosh.org

A 30 DA listing at $75 is the price of an experiment: if the article earns citations, you have found a channel; if not, you have lost one 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 13.5k 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 7% above the median on cost and about 2.5× the index median on audience. Listings in that section range from $30 at the cheap end, so the question is not whether $75 is high for a link, but whether it is high for this one.

Where eshikshakosh.org is not a topical match for your market, buy it for that plausibility and for whatever brand exposure comes free, and put your exact-match anchors on the sites that genuinely cover your subject. That one discipline is the difference between a general guest post strengthening a profile and the same link making it look synthetic.

The index lists this property's editorial links as followed. Availability of a followed link changes with the site's monetisation decisions, so we confirm the tag on the live URL before counting delivery.

Two comparisons decide whether eshikshakosh.org at $75 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 — 30 DA, 30 PA, 57 DR, 13,500 visits, $75, do-follow — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.

eshikshakosh.org out-ranks 70% of the index on audience size (about 2.5× the index median) and 2% on authority. The placement costs $5.56 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 73% of the DA 30-39 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $75 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Thin profiles where diversity matters more than raw authority.
• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• New domains that need a plausible first set of citations before anything ambitious.
• Do not buy this as part of a burst. 7–12 days is the delivery window for one placement; a month's worth of placements across several hosts is the pattern that works.
• 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 30 DA placement on a General site is a start, not a strategy.

Pitch angle: an experience write-up with numbers, dates and decisions. 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.

• Include one thing nobody else has A table, a chart, a worked example, a photograph you took. This is what earns the citations that make the $75 look cheap a year later.
• Name a real author A person with a title and a bio. Anonymous contributions on General sites are the first thing an editor distrusts, and the first thing a reader discounts.
• Open with the thing you know One specific claim, a number or a dated decision, in the first two sentences. Editors in General positions decide whether to keep a contribution in about that long.

Anchor plan for this host

• no two anchors to the same target page from one article
• one brand or URL anchor in the first half, and nothing else

• 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.
• What happens on removal. eshikshakosh.org 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.
• Anchor history. We pull the anchors other sites have bought there. If the last twenty were all money phrases, a brand anchor from you will look natural, which is the rare and useful direction.
• Template stability. Redesigns and CMS migrations kill placements. We check the age of the site's oldest surviving article as a proxy for how long a page there tends to live.

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 eshikshakosh.org Publisher slots move week to week, including on 30 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 eshikshakosh.org'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 $75 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

• The article itself, drafted to the host's style and edited before submission.
