Frequently asked questions

BlogReach is a marketplace for paid placements on independent publications. Buyers compare websites by authority, traffic, spam risk and price, then order a guest post or link insertion. Publishers list their sites, set their own rates and deliver the published URL.

Everything after that — the order record, the messages, the payment and the monitoring of the delivered link — stays in one place, so both sides work from the same facts rather than an email thread.

No. Every published website, its metrics and its starting price are visible without signing in. You only need an account to add an offer to your cart, send a seller a message, save a shortlist or place an order.

Yes. A single BlogReach account has both a buying desk and a selling desk, and you switch between them from the account menu. Switching does not duplicate your profile, messages, orders or payment history.

Listing is free. There is no subscription and no fee to submit a site for review. BlogReach earns 20% of each completed order, which is deducted from the price you set.

Filter on domain rating and domain authority to narrow the list, then judge on the things a score cannot tell you: is the traffic real and in your market, is the spam score low, does the site publish on a coherent topic, and is the owner verified.

Authority with almost no traffic is the clearest warning sign, because it usually means the link profile was built rather than earned.

A dofollow link can pass ranking signals. A nofollow, sponsored or UGC link tells search engines not to treat it as an endorsement, though Google may still use it for discovery.

Every offer states its link attribute before you order. Confirm it with the seller if the listing says the attribute is agreed per order, and it will be recorded against your order.

Yes, where the seller has enabled offers. Send a proposed amount from the website page and the publisher can accept, decline or counter from their dashboard. Each counter renews the response window until one side accepts, declines or withdraws.

The order moves to Paid and the publisher begins work. When they submit the live post URL you are asked to approve it. If you do nothing, the order auto-approves after 3 days.

Approval is what releases the publisher's earnings into escrow, so nothing is paid out while you are still reviewing.

Request a revision from your order history with a note explaining what needs to change. The publisher sees your note and the URL they submitted, and the auto-approve clock stops until they resubmit.

An unpaid order can be cancelled at no cost. After payment, cancelling applies a USD 2.00 protection fee and the remainder is refunded to your BlogReach wallet. Orders cannot be cancelled once the post has been delivered — use a revision request or the guarantee instead.

Yes. Add multiple offers to your cart and set a target URL for each line, or apply one target and anchor across every line. The campaign builder will also assemble a matching set from live offers if you describe your niche, authority target, budget and link count.

Enter your domain, choose whether you own the site or resell access to it, set a price in USD for each service you offer, and submit. Our team reviews ownership and pricing before the listing appears to buyers.

Three ways: add a DNS TXT record, upload a small verification file to your domain, or connect Google Analytics and Search Console for the same domain. Verified owners carry a badge in search results and rank above unverified sellers.

Resellers cannot verify ownership and instead supply a proof link such as an authorisation letter or an owner's written confirmation.

Every new listing and every price change is checked before it goes live. Reviews take longer when ownership evidence is missing, when a reseller has not supplied a proof link, or when the price is far outside the range for comparable sites. Your selling desk shows the current status.

Compare against the live low, typical, average and high offers for sites with similar authority and niche, which BlogReach shows per currency. Price your floor on what you actually receive after the 20% commission, not on the headline number, and price content writing as a separate line item.

Only if you choose to share it. Connecting Google Analytics earns a “GA4 verified” badge; your session numbers stay hidden until you turn sharing on from your selling desk. Publishers who show real numbers generally convert better and support higher prices.

Publish the post, then submit the live URL from your deliveries queue. Monitoring of the link starts automatically once we record it, and the buyer is asked to approve.

Card payments and your BlogReach wallet settle immediately. Bank transfer, PayPal and crypto are also available, but those are confirmed by our finance team before the order moves to Paid, so they are not instant.

A 5% payment processing fee is shown as its own line in your cart and at checkout.

Yes. Payment is recorded against the order and the publisher's share is not credited to them until you approve the delivered post, or until the 3-day auto-approve window passes.

After buyer approval, earnings sit in a 30-day escrow hold while the delivered link is monitored. Once the hold has passed you request a withdrawal from your Earnings page; BlogReach never auto-releases funds. Finance then approves the request and marks it Paid after the transfer.

Three things, all shown before you commit:

• 20% marketplace commission on each order, deducted from the price the publisher set.
• 5% payment processing on the buyer's cart total.
• 5% payout fee on each publisher withdrawal.

Yes, USD 50.00. The withdrawal form shows the minimum, the payout fee and the exact amount you will receive before you submit.

Wallet balance is money you have topped up to spend on placements. Withdrawable earnings come only from completed sales. Buyer top-ups cannot be withdrawn, and seller earnings are not spent automatically at checkout.

Guest posts carry a 12-month link-uptime window and link insertions or niche edits carry 6 months. Inside that window you can claim the guarantee directly from your order history.

Once the publisher submits the live URL, BlogReach fetches that page on a schedule and compares it against your order: is the page reachable, is the link still there, does it still point at your target, and does the rel attribute still match what was promised.

After 2 consecutive failed checks the placement is marked at risk and the publisher receives a repair request with a 72-hour window. If the window closes without a fix, a case opens for review and the publisher's linked wallet can be restricted until it is resolved.

BlogReach cannot guarantee rankings, indexing, traffic, conversions, editorial acceptance or how a search engine treats a link. Cover also does not extend to anything agreed off-platform, to an order that was cancelled or materially changed, or to a time-boxed placement that reached its agreed end date.

Only the buyer attached to a delivered order, once per order. Reviews are moderated before publication and BlogReach does not accept anonymous listing reviews.

Domain rating comes from Ahrefs, and domain authority, spam score and the link profile figures come from Moz. Organic traffic and keywords come from Semrush, or from Google Analytics where a publisher has connected it and chosen to share numbers. Domain age comes from the registry record.

Every metric carries the date it was fetched, both on the listing and on the website profile. A metric that has never been fetched is labelled pending rather than shown as zero.

A single score combining thirteen weighted signals across Moz, Ahrefs, Semrush, registry data and traffic, instead of relying on one vendor's number. Current evidence gets full weight, missing evidence is held at a neutral baseline rather than treated as zero, and each result shows how much of the score is backed by current data.

Because both DA and DR are calculated from links alone. Neither reads the content or checks whether anyone visits. A large gap between authority and traffic usually means the link profile was built deliberately, and it is the single most useful warning sign when you are choosing where to buy.

Open a ticket from the support page and our team replies in your BlogReach notifications and by email. You can also message us on WhatsApp at +1 307-464-4505 or email [email protected].

Yes. Conversations stay inside BlogReach and neither side sees the other's email address. Messages are tied to the offer they concern so the context stays with the order.

You can turn off marketing and most update categories from your workspace settings. A small number of essential messages — account setup, password reset, and escrow notices — are always sent, because missing them would leave you without access to your account or your money.

Use the reset link on the sign-in page and we will email you a secure link. If it does not arrive, check your spam folder before requesting another, and contact support if it still does not reach you.
