Placing a link on playersstats.co.uk

8k monthly visits is thin, so the buy here is the citation and the crawl path rather than an audience.

Generalist inventory also varies more than any other kind, which is why the numbers in this brief matter more than the label. A 38 DA domain with 8k 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.

The arithmetic a buyer should see: 8,000 estimated visits a month, $70 per placement, so $8.75 per thousand visits for a do-follow link on a site scoring 38 DA and 35 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.

Where playersstats.co.uk 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.

Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 38 DA and 8k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.

Two comparisons decide whether playersstats.co.uk at $70 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.

Ranked against the 2,000 listings we index, playersstats.co.uk sits in the top 59% for audience and the top 36% for authority, at $8.75 per thousand monthly visits. Inside the DA 30-39 band (892 listings) that price ranks 344th for value, which is the comparison to use: nobody competes with the whole index, they compete with the sites a buyer would book instead.

playersstats.co.uk out-ranks 59% of the index on audience size (about 1.5× the index median) and 36% on authority. The placement costs $8.75 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 61% of the DA 30-39 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $70 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• New domains that need a plausible first set of citations before anything ambitious.
• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• Local and service businesses whose market has few specialist publications left.
• 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 38 DA placement on a General site is a start, not a strategy.
• 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 data note built from something you have measured. 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.

• 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.
• 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.

Anchor plan for this host

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

• 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.
• Disclosure policy. Whether the host labels paid contributions. A label costs you nothing in link value and protects the host from the penalty that removes the page.
• 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 playersstats.co.uk 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 playersstats.co.uk'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 $70 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

• Link attribute verified on the published page and reported as found.
• Anchor and target page exactly as approved in the brief, or the placement is not counted.
• 12-month replacement cover: if the link drops, we rebuild it.
• White-label PDF + CSV report — forward it to a client unchanged.
