Guest post on shegossips.com: the site brief

At 40 DA, judge the placement on the page and the neighbours, not on the score.

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 6.4k 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.

shegossips.com has 45 DR against an index median of 51, 6.4k monthly visits against a median of 5.5k, and a placement price of $70 against $70. Where those three numbers point in different directions, the traffic figure is usually the honest one: it is what a publisher has to protect, and it is what decays first when a site starts selling too much inventory.

Where shegossips.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.

Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 40 DA and 6.4k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.

Two comparisons decide whether shegossips.com 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, shegossips.com sits in the top 54% for audience and the top 52% for authority, at $10.94 per thousand monthly visits. Inside the DA 40-49 band (703 listings) that price ranks 427th for value, which is the comparison to use: nobody competes with the whole index, they compete with the sites a buyer would book instead.

shegossips.com out-ranks 54% of the index on audience size (in line with the index median) and 52% on authority. The placement costs $10.94 per thousand estimated visits, and mid-priced for a site carrying DA 40-49. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $70 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Agencies filling a monthly quota with links nobody will object to.
• 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 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 the site's topical distance from your market needs three paragraphs of explanation. Relevance has to be obvious to a crawler reading the neighbourhood.

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.
• 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.
• Put one link in the body Exactly one, in the sentence where the article needs the source. A second link to your own domain is the most common reason a piece gets rewritten before publication.

Anchor plan for this host

• if you already have links from similar sites, vary the anchor shape entirely
• one brand or URL anchor in the first half, and nothing else

• 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.
• Whether the exact placement URL is indexable. A 40 DA domain happily serves noindexed contributor pages. We read the robots meta tag on the article template, not on the homepage.
• Editorial activity. A site with 6.4k monthly visits and nothing published in six months is a decaying asset, and decaying assets get dropped from the index in batches.
• 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.

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 shegossips.com's audience rather than for your keyword, then checked against the site's own style before submission.

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.

If the article you want published needs expert authorship, data or photography, that work is included; if it needs a regulated-industry review, say so early, because it changes the timeline rather than the price.
