Buy links from vetted sites — with the risk explained first, not buried.
Most pages that sell placements skip the part you actually want to read. So here it is, at the top: Google's spam policy treats a link that passes ranking signals in exchange for money as a violation, and it names both sides of that exchange — the site buying and the site selling. If you plan to buy links, what determines your outcome is what you buy, how often, and where the link sits — not the price. This page covers that first, then what Rankaim sells against that standard.
The straight answer on risk
Google's link spam policy says a link meant to pass ranking signals in exchange for money breaks the guidelines. The honest framing is risk management, not a loophole — read our full risk breakdown for the complete guide.
Relevance first
A link from a site your customers would actually visit is worth more than a higher Domain Rating in an unrelated niche.
Anchor text distribution
Lean on brand, bare URLs and natural phrases. Exact-match anchors should be the exception, not the pattern.
Link velocity
Match how your site already earns coverage. Four new referring domains last quarter, then thirty next month, looks wrong to anyone checking.
Verified organic traffic
Check this before any third-party score. Scores can be manufactured. Traffic that maps to real keywords is harder to fake.
What we refuse to list
The floor is DR 20 and 2,000 organic visits a month. Applications are reviewed within 48 hours.
PBNs — including networks built to pass casual detection with different registrars and hosts
Link farms and sites whose outbound profile is mostly paid placements
Deindexed sites, and sites showing partial deindexation of their article sections
Spun or auto-generated content
Sites where the metrics and the actual organic traffic tell two different stories
What it costs to buy links, tier by tier
Publishers set their own listed price — that's the number you pay in full. Rankaim deducts a flat 20% from the publisher's side. Nothing is added at checkout.
Niche Authority
Finance, health, legal and SaaS categories carry a premium — publishers in those categories have more to lose from a bad placement.
Verified Organic Traffic
Two sites at the same Domain Rating can sit in different price brackets if one gets ten times the verified Google search visits.
Turnaround Time (TAT)
Faster publication costs more — the publisher is reordering their own editorial queue to prioritize your submission.
Placement Context
A link inside an aged page that already ranks and gets traffic is worth more than one on a fresh page nobody has indexed yet.
Content writing, permanent dofollow attribution, and 12-month monitoring are included in every listed price.

They solve different SEO objectives. Choose based on whether you need new topical coverage or existing URL rankings.
| Comparison Criteria | Guest Post Placements | Link Insertions (Niche Edits) |
|---|---|---|
| What you get | A new article published on the site, with your link inside it | Your link added to an article the site already published |
| Typical time to live | Shown on every listing — publishers declare their own turnaround | Shown on every listing — publishers declare their own turnaround |
| Content | Written for you and approved by you before publication | Existing article, with the surrounding sentence adjusted and shown to you first |
| Page authority on day one | Starts at zero and builds with indexing | Inherits whatever URL ranking power the page has already earned |
| Control over context | High — you shape the whole article around your target page | Focused — you choose the existing article, not the broad topic |
| Best used for | Building topical coverage and new referring domains | Getting a link into an aged page that already has organic traffic |
12-Month Monitoring, Fully Automated
Every link is checked daily for 12 months. You don't open a ticket, and you don't have to notice the drop yourself.
Daily 24/7 Crawler
Automated robots ping your URL daily for 200 OK status, rel=dofollow, and exact anchor presence.
72-Hour Auto-Restore
If a change is detected, the publisher is pinged automatically. If not restored, replacement or refund triggers.
Escrow Lock
Funds are held in secure escrow and released to the publisher only after live indexing is verified.
Questions Buyers Ask
Clear answers on anchor rules, velocity, exclusions, and refunds.
Who decides the anchor text?▼
You do. You submit the anchor and the target page with the order. A publisher can decline an anchor that reads as spam on their site — you revise it rather than lose the order.
How many placements a month is safe?▼
Tie it to your own site's history rather than a fixed number. Adding a volume of paid placements similar to your normal pace of earning referring domains sits inside your existing pattern. A sudden spike is what gets noticed.
Which niches are excluded?▼
Sites that primarily serve casino, adult, payday-loan or cryptocurrency pump-and-dump content without genuine niche fit are rejected at the vetting stage — they're never listed to begin with.
How do refunds work?▼
Before publication, cancel and the escrowed funds return to you. After publication, a link that drops and isn't restored inside 72 hours becomes a replacement or a refund — that protection runs for the full 12 months.
What reporting do I get?▼
Every order shows the live URL, the publication date, the anchor used, and the current status of the daily monitoring check.
