Publishing on educba.com — metrics, brief and price

Premium pricing at $110, which we only recommend when the article you place would have been published anyway.

Generalist inventory also varies more than any other kind, which is why the numbers in this brief matter more than the label. A 58 DA domain with 178k estimated monthly visits and Do-follow links is a different product from the same DA with a tenth of the traffic, and they are priced too close together in most catalogues.

Within the General section of the index — 1,576 listings, 39 median DA, 5k median traffic, $70 median price — this placement is 57% above the median on cost and about 32.5× the index median on audience. Listings in that section range from $30 at the cheap end, so the question is not whether $110 is high for a link, but whether it is high for this one.

Where educba.com is not a topical match for your market, buy it for that plausibility and for whatever brand exposure comes free, and put your exact-match anchors on the sites that genuinely cover your subject. That one discipline is the difference between a general guest post strengthening a profile and the same link making it look synthetic.

The index lists this property's editorial links as followed. Availability of a followed link changes with the site's monetisation decisions, so we confirm the tag on the live URL before counting delivery.

Two comparisons decide whether educba.com at $110 is a good buy: this listing against the 1,576 other General entries we index, and against the whole 2,000-site index. The gap between those two answers is where a price is either justified or inherited from a rate card nobody revisited.

educba.com has 75 DR against an index median of 51, 178k monthly visits against a median of 5.5k, and a placement price of $110 against $70. Where those three numbers point in different directions, the traffic figure is usually the honest one: it is what a publisher has to protect, and it is what decays first when a site starts selling too much inventory.

educba.com out-ranks 98% of the index on audience size (about 32.5× the index median) and 94% on authority. The placement costs $0.62 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 97% of the DA 50-59 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $110 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• Thin profiles where diversity matters more than raw authority.
• Local and service businesses whose market has few specialist publications left.
• Do not buy this as part of a burst. 10–16 days is the delivery window for one placement; a month's worth of placements across several hosts is the pattern that works.
• Do not buy this if the site's topical distance from your market needs three paragraphs of explanation. Relevance has to be obvious to a crawler reading the neighbourhood.

Pitch angle: a practical guide that solves one named problem for your market. That is the shape we take to a General audience, because it is the version the host's own editor has a reason to keep.

• Add a heading someone would search A question-style H2 phrased the way the reader phrases it. This is what lets the article rank on its own, which is the difference between a placement that gets crawled weekly and one that gets crawled yearly.
• Include one thing nobody else has A table, a chart, a worked example, a photograph you took. This is what earns the citations that make the $110 look cheap a year later.
• Open with the thing you know One specific claim, a number or a dated decision, in the first two sentences. Editors in General positions decide whether to keep a contribution in about that long.

Anchor plan for this host

• if you already have links from similar sites, vary the anchor shape entirely
• no two anchors to the same target page from one article

• Neighbour content on the same section. The twelve articles around yours set the context search engines will use to judge the link. If they are all sponsored posts on unrelated topics, the slot is worth less than the price says.
• Anchor history. We pull the anchors other sites have bought there. If the last twenty were all money phrases, a brand anchor from you will look natural, which is the rare and useful direction.
• Editorial activity. A site with 178k monthly visits and nothing published in six months is a decaying asset, and decaying assets get dropped from the index in batches.
• Indexation of the host's recent output. We run site:educba.com and compare the count against the site's publishing rate. A property publishing weekly with a fraction of its pages indexed has a crawl or quality problem you would inherit.

4. The article is drafted and edited for the host Written for educba.com's audience rather than for your keyword, then checked against the site's own style before submission.
5. The host publishes; we verify the live URL Placement live, correct target, link attribute as recorded, indexable. Only then does the order count as delivered.
6. You get the report, and the replacement cover starts PDF and CSV with the live URL, anchor, placement date and target page. Twelve-month replacement on the link itself, no ticket required.

The quoted $110 is our standard rate for this listing at the time of the September 2026 snapshot. Two things move it: whether the host still has contributor capacity that month, and whether the slot you want is a standalone article or a paragraph inside an existing page (niche edits on the same property are typically cheaper and faster).
