Guest post on webinbound.com: the site brief

52 DA sits comfortably above the index median of 40, which is the level where editors start enforcing real standards.

Business titles are the most forgiving category for a contribution with a link in it, and therefore the most crowded. Standing out is a structural problem rather than a writing one: an article that opens with a specific number, a named process or a decision gets read, and specific things get cited by other writers. Business content that opens with a general observation gets nothing.

Within the Business section of the index — 35 listings, 53 median DA, 4.9k median traffic, $35 median price — this placement is 29% above the median on cost and about 13.7× the index median on audience. Listings in that section range from $20 at the cheap end, so the question is not whether $45 is high for a link, but whether it is high for this one.

Editors in this category will accept a link to your resource if the resource is genuinely the subject of a sentence. That is the whole test: if the sentence still works with the link removed, the link probably will not.

Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 52 DA and 75.3k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.

Two comparisons decide whether webinbound.com at $45 is a good buy: this listing against the 35 other Business 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 — 52 DA, 45 PA, 64 DR, 75,300 visits, $45, do-follow — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.

webinbound.com out-ranks 93% of the index on audience size (about 13.7× the index median) and 83% on authority. The placement costs $0.60 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 98% of the DA 50-59 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $45 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Agencies that need topical relevance in a specific vertical.
• SaaS founders needing a citation trail next to review-site links.
• Local professional firms where the link plus a branded search result is the point.
• 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 guide to a boring process done well. That is the shape we take to a Business audience, because it is the version the host's own editor has a reason to keep.

• Name a real author A person with a title and a bio. Anonymous contributions on Business sites are the first thing an editor distrusts, and the first thing a reader discounts.
• 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.
• 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

• a resource-name anchor where the article points at the thing it mentions
• one contextual anchor naming the practice, not the product

• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

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 webinbound.com Publisher slots move week to week, including on 52 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 webinbound.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 $45 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 Business section of our index at the same budget is easy to arrange.

What comes with this placement

• Anchor and target page exactly as approved in the brief, or the placement is not counted.
• One contextual placement inside an article written for webinbound.com's audience, not a link directory entry.
• Link attribute verified on the published page and reported as found.
• The article itself, drafted to the host's style and edited before submission.
