What it costs, in market context
Dofollow is one of the minority in this market that publishes a figure — From $4,000/month for 4–5 links. That is genuinely useful: it lets you rule yourself in or out before spending an hour on a call, and it gives you a reference point for judging quotes from agencies that do not publish.
| Link type | Cost per link | What to know | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Link insertion (niche edit) | $141 – $600 $141 typical; around $600 on DR 50+ sites | Rarely offered by high-quality, high-traffic publishers. | Ahrefs |
| Guest post | $220 – $609 $220 average; up to $609 for high quality | Direct from the site averages $295; through a vendor, $461. | BuzzStream |
| Manual outreach / editorial placement | $500 – $1,250 $500–$1,250 depending on site authority and relevance | The band most SaaS retainers actually operate in. | Siege Media |
| Digital PR placement | $800 – $1,200 $800–$1,200 per placement | Highest authority per link; campaign-based, so volume is less predictable. | Siege Media |
| Market average, any type | $508.95 +45% vs 2022 (up from $350 in 2022) | The average price SEOs say is acceptable for one high-quality backlink. | Editorial.Link |
Who it fits
On the public record, Dofollow suits buyers who want a fixed monthly link count rather than a variable campaign.
We are describing fit, not quality. We have not run a procurement process against Dofollow or any other agency here, so we publish no score — a number we could not defend would look like evidence while being nothing of the kind. Use the fit description as a filter and test the rest yourself.
What to ask them
Ask every shortlisted agency the same questions in the same order, so the answers are comparable. The full list of eleven is worth taking into the call; these four matter most here:
- What proportion of placements involve a payment to the publisher?
- What disqualifies a site from a campaign — the actual written criteria?
- What happens when a link goes dead, and for how long does that apply?
- What exactly is included in the published rate — prospecting, content, placement, monitoring?
Market context
For reference when you evaluate any quote: the market average for one high-quality backlink is $508.95, up 45% from $350 in 2022, and 80.9% of SEOs expect prices to keep rising through 2027. Across the market, 46.5% of buyers spend $5,000–$10,000 a month and 18% spend more than $10,000.
One further figure worth carrying into any conversation: Ahrefs found that 66.5% of links built between 2013 and 2024 are now dead. Whatever you pay per link, what you actually own is the proportion still live in two years — which is why the replacement policy matters more than the headline rate.
