We are a link marketplace written by people who think like editors. We state what we know, mark what we guess and leave rankings to Google.

What we run
PublicLinks is a backlinks site, a self-serve marketplace for individual dofollow backlinks, editorial placements and link insertions, on real websites that we vetted for traffic. The inventory covers 50,000+ donor domains. Every row shows Domain Rating, organic traffic, referring domains, niche, language and price.
Prices begin at $1 and reach about $500 for the strongest domains. There is no subscription. You find links, fill a basket that charges nothing, review it, and pay when you are ready. Nothing renews itself, and no card is stored for a plan, because there is no plan to bill.
A placement usually goes live within about 24 hours of payment. It is permanent and dofollow, and it appears in your ordered links with its status.
Founded as a marketplace, grown into a reference. The guides on this site are free to read, and none of them needs an account.
How we hold ourselves
Habits borrowed from the newsroom.
Say what is known
Product facts come from the product. Everything else is labelled as opinion or example.
Mark the hypotheticals
When a page uses invented numbers to explain a method, it says so on the page.
No promises about rankings
We can't know what Google will do with a link, and we won't pretend to.
Publishers keep control
Sellers set their price and approve every placement. Payouts are weekly.
Who this site is for
Our guides speak to publishers, site owners and small PR teams. The questions are practical: how rel attributes work, what a sponsored post should cost, and how to sell links without wrecking a site's reputation.
Our data comes from our own crawler and our own index. Questions or corrections can be sent from your account page. That is the only contact route we run, so corrections to a guide, a question about an order and a publisher query all arrive in the same place. Short.
What we state, and what we leave to others
Product facts are ours to state. Search engine behaviour is not.

How we write
Our guides follow a newsroom rule. The claim comes first, the reason second. If a number is invented to explain a method, we mark it as an example. If a date comes from Google, we give the month.
We read Google's own documentation, Search Console data and the work of tools like Ahrefs, Semrush and Moz, and we point out where those tools disagree. Nobody here pretends to see inside Google.
You will find opinions on these pages. They are signed by the editorial team, not dressed up as facts, and we change them when the evidence moves.
