Editorial.link is a well-regarded managed link building agency that earns placements on third-party publications through manual outreach. Its published rates as of July 2026 are 375 dollars for a single backlink, 1,750 dollars for a 5-link Startup package (350 dollars each) and 6,000 dollars for a 20-link Growth package (300 dollars each), with premium placements from about 550 dollars. Standard packages target an average DR of 50 to 90 with a 5,000-plus monthly traffic floor, you approve every prospect before outreach starts, and links carry a 6-month replacement guarantee. If you want a curated program on sites nobody sells access to, that is a genuinely strong offer and the approval workflow is better than most.
BacklinkPlace solves the same problem from the supply side. We own and operate the publications, so there is no prospecting phase, no pitch that can go unanswered, and no order that dies because a stranger's editor said no. You browse the network by niche, live Domain Rating and real Google Analytics traffic, order a sponsored editorial article or a niche edit per placement with no package and no minimum, and we write it, publish it and report the live contextual do-follow link. Every placement carries FTC sponsored disclosure and reads as genuine editorial content, on inventory we control end to end.

Owned vs third-party inventory
We own and operate every portal in the network, so supply is never the constraint and no placement can be refused after you order.
Manual outreach that earns placements on third-party publications they do not own, sourced from their partner network and live SERPs.
Pricing (verified July 2026)
Per-placement pricing by niche, DR and live traffic on transparent B2B plans, no package required, no monthly minimum.
Published rates: 375 dollars for one link, 1,750 dollars for 5 (350 each), 6,000 dollars for 20 (300 each), premium placements from about 550 dollars.
Site selection and approval
You browse live owned inventory and pick the exact portals yourself before ordering.
A real strength: you review and approve every prospect before any outreach happens, and they screen out sites that sell links.
Quality floor
DR 30 to 70 portals with live Google Analytics traffic we can show you directly for each site.
Standard packages target average DR 50 to 90 with a 5,000-plus monthly traffic floor, which is a higher authority band than ours.
Speed and predictability
Guaranteed placement on a calendar we control, usually live in about 5 to 7 days.
First links within roughly 7 days of approval, though premium placements can run 2 to 4 weeks or longer.
Link durability
We publish on our own portals, so if a page ever needs fixing or replacing we do it directly.
A 6-month replacement guarantee with a 3-month extension after the contract ends, plus a trial backlink before signing.
Editorial philosophy
Disclosed sponsored editorial on portals we own, with real audiences and no PBNs.
Earned-style placements only. Their classifier deliberately excludes sites that sell placements, so by their own standard an owned sponsored network would not qualify. That is the honest tradeoff between the two models.
Restricted niches
We also serve niches most publishers refuse outright, including casino, cannabis and crypto.
Focused on SaaS, tech, finance, insurance, legal, real estate and ecommerce brands.

FAQ
Switching questions.
As of July 2026 Editorial.link publishes a base rate of 375 dollars per backlink, with volume packages at 1,750 dollars for 5 links (350 dollars each) and 6,000 dollars for 20 links (300 dollars each). Premium placements on top-tier domains start around 550 dollars, and a bespoke tier is quoted individually. BacklinkPlace prices each placement by niche, DR and live traffic on our owned portals instead, so you can order a single link without buying a package.
It is, if guaranteed placement and speed matter more to you than acquiring links on sites nobody sells access to. Editorial.link is stronger on authority band (average DR 50 to 90) and on its pre-approval workflow. BacklinkPlace is stronger on certainty: we own the publications, so nothing depends on a stranger accepting a pitch, and placements go live in about 5 to 7 days.
No. Editorial.link states you can order as few as one link per month, and packages can be adjusted, so it is not a hard retainer like some managed agencies. BacklinkPlace is also per placement with no minimum. The practical difference is what happens after you order: with outreach you wait on third-party publishers, and with an owned network the placement is already available.
Earned editorial links are the stronger asset when you can get them, because a publisher chose to cite you on merit. The catch is that they are slow, unpredictable and need a genuinely linkable asset. Paid editorial placements trade that ideal for control and speed, and stay safe when they are disclosed, written properly and published on sites with real readers. Most serious programs run both.
