Our Story

Built by SEOs, for SEOs

We got tired of paying for backlinks that didn't exist, metrics that were fabricated, and marketplaces that took no responsibility. So we built the one we always wanted — transparent, escrow-protected, and ruthlessly quality-controlled.

Our Mission

Make link building honest again

The backlink industry is full of shady operators, fake metrics, and link farms disguised as editorial sites. We exist to be the opposite of that.

Every publisher in our marketplace is manually reviewed. Every payment is held in escrow. Every link is tracked for indexation. If something goes wrong, we fix it — no excuses, no runarounds.

  • Manual review for every publisher site
  • 60%+ rejection rate keeps quality high
  • Escrow payments — you only pay when the link is live
  • 30-day index guarantee or full refund
Why we built this
"I placed a $3,000 order with a major marketplace. Half the links never went live. I got store credit, not a refund. That was the last straw."

What We Stand For

Our core values

🔍01

Radical Transparency

Every site's DR, traffic, and niche is verified before it enters our marketplace. What you see is what you get — no inflated metrics, no surprises.

🏆02

Quality Over Volume

We'd rather have 500 elite publishers than 50,000 low-quality ones. Every site is manually reviewed by our editorial team before approval.

🔒03

Escrow-Protected Always

Your money is held in escrow until the link is live and indexed. If it doesn't go live within 30 days, you get a full refund. Period.

💰04

Publisher-First Economics

Publishers keep 80% of every sale. We believe that fair pay attracts quality sites — and quality sites attract quality buyers.

🚫05

No Junk. Ever.

We reject PBNs, auto-generated content farms, and sites gaming their metrics. Our manual review process has a 60% rejection rate for a reason.

📈06

Built for Scale

Whether you need 1 link or 500, our platform handles it. Agencies get bulk pricing, white-label reports, and a dedicated account manager.
