The ghidralite.com placement brief

$75 is roughly 7% above the median against the General median of $70 in our index, which is the number worth arguing about.

There is a second job these placements do that is worth naming: they make a young or thin profile look normal. A domain that acquires 38-level links from a spread of ordinary publications, in drips, over months, looks like a business that has been around. A domain that acquires forty links from aggressive networks in a fortnight looks like a campaign, and it is the pattern rather than the individual link that gets noticed.

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 5.7× 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 ghidralite.com 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 ghidralite.com 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.

The arithmetic a buyer should see: 31,600 estimated visits a month, $75 per placement, so $2.37 per thousand visits for a do-follow link on a site scoring 38 DA and 36 PA. Snapshot September 2026; availability and the exact link attribute are confirmed on the live URL before an invoice, which is the only part of this page that changes week to week.

ghidralite.com out-ranks 84% of the index on audience size (about 5.7× the index median) and 36% on authority. The placement costs $2.37 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 87% 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.

• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• Local and service businesses whose market has few specialist publications left.
• New domains that need a plausible first set of citations before anything ambitious.
• Do not buy this if the page it would sit on is already crowded with five other commercial links — we will usually flag that at the availability check and offer a different section.
• 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.

Pitch angle: a comparison of two options a reader is choosing between. 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.

• 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.
• 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.

Anchor plan for this host

• no two anchors to the same target page from one article
• a descriptive anchor that repeats a phrase the article already uses naturally

• Neighbour content on the same section. The twelve articles around yours set the context search engines will use to judge the link. If they are all sponsored posts on unrelated topics, the slot is worth less than the price says.
• What happens on removal. ghidralite.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.
• Whether the exact placement URL is indexable. A 38 DA domain happily serves noindexed contributor pages. We read the robots meta tag on the article template, not on the homepage.
• 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.

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 ghidralite.com Publisher slots move week to week, including on 38 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 ghidralite.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.

The quoted $75 is our standard rate for this listing at the time of the September 2026 snapshot. Two things move it: whether the host still has contributor capacity that month, and whether the slot you want is a standalone article or a paragraph inside an existing page (niche edits on the same property are typically cheaper and faster).

What comes with this placement
