My SEO Sucks Calculator - The ultimate link-building pricing calculator

Based off of over 18,000+ backlinks that the My SEO Sucks team has built over the past 12 months, we created a FREE proprietary tool that calculates the price of links all over the web. Don’t ever overpay for a backlink again.

Hi PH team, I buy and build a lot of links and we found a big discrepancy in pricing. This tool has proven to be very effective in negotiating better pricing with potential vendors. Since implementing this tool internally, over $250,000 has been saved.

@michael_sieb thanks for the kind words. Let me know if you have any feedback.

@localpinorg Hey team at LocalPin, I didn't understand the question? Any feedback or questions I can assist with.
LocalPin - Find Local Vendors Near You
@chris_porteous I mean, how can anyone calculate backlinks cost?
Chris Porteous
@localpinorg It's a guide / recommendation based on various metrics. We analyzed over 18,000 backlinks and designed an algorithm that estimates how much one should pay. The idea is, if you're negotiating with a broker or blogger, this is a great way to make sure you're not overpaying.
Chris Porteous
@localpinorg I dove in a bit, looks like most of that cost is associated with content (content included). Site looks relatively new, and there's currently no authority. I'd definitely recommend building out your authority via link-building. A few easy wins: creating a badge for vendors to share on their site, building out content for various "product pages" (i.e. Pet Grooming), and then link-building towards these product and content pages. Would start to drive a really nice increase in traffic via SEO. Feel free to contact me or book a free consultation on myseosucks.com. Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback!

Hey, just tried https://sooperarticles.com and few others Price matched 100% What factors do you apply to calculate pricing apart from traffic and domain rating?
Chris Porteous
@sam_berry2 It looks like that site is around $260 / post. In terms of the "domain" metrics themselves, it's mainly DR, traffic and # of keywords ranked (not taking into account some of the "advanced options"). We are planning on adding additional features / improvements to our pricing algorithms in v2. For example, doing a better job of filtering out low quality sites with inflated metrics (i.e. sell a lot of guest posts). Any feedback is always appreciated.

This is going to be immensely helpful... honestly surprised it's taken this long to build something like this.
Chris Porteous
@johnnyg87 I can't speak for other agencies, but it has really helped our outreach team when negotiating with bloggers and brokers. Appreciate the feedback!
Sune B. Thorsen
Lovely idea - I'll be sure to recommend this to those in my network who are looking to buy backlinks :)
Chris Porteous
@sunebthorsen Really appreciate it. We've, unfortunately, seen too many companies get "taken" by link-building agencies.
Maurice Villaester
Will definitely recommend this to my colleagues! It would be easier for us to estimate our budget for backlinks. Looking forward to using it. :)
Chris Porteous
@mauricejitty glad it’s of use to your team!

Congratulations on the launch @chris_porteous. There's plenty of data on the website with the ultimate guide for SEO and backlinks. Also a good guide on sharing the knowledge for buyback links and how it's used in the industry by others. Much helpful for a newbie like me to understand in detail.
Chris Porteous

Alessandro Valentini
@chris_porteous I echo the comments of others. I can't believe we never had this and it's going to be extremely useful to so many SEO specialists. It could also be used to produced more realistic budgets, and therefore ROI projections. This gives specialists the power to show their commercial mindset. Kudos!
Chris Porteous
@alessandro_valentini Really appreciate it! Having a basic framework for link pricing will help many businesses and agencies save $1000s. It also provides a high level overview of the value of any specific link.

Sounds really interesting, have to check this out. Could be really useful in my line of work :) Is the price meant per year?
Chris Porteous
@thisiswenzel our agency only builds permanent links. The price would, typically, be for a permanent post (+ link) on a site.

I am doing outreach for guest posts links since 2014 and have purchase links for over $70K+ for multiple clients and I tried that site for a 5-10 sites, the results and are so wrong and could results you to really overpay just if you will follow that data blindly. For example I am purchase links from that blog since 2018 and till now it's price is $60, however the tool is quoting 233.75. (Very odd number) Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/1qfgk0q

Massive price discrepancy, not to be trusted. Indeed, it can be used to negotiate backlink prices with webmasters and admins that have little understanding of their website's real value. Best example, checking the price of a backlink on google.com the tool thinks it is $50!!! :))
