Placing a link on soldmagazine.co.uk

At 18k visits a month, expect the article to be found by search rather than by the site's own readers, which makes the durability of the page the thing to scrutinise.

Where soldmagazine.co.uk 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.

Within the General section of the index — 1,576 listings, 39 median DA, 5k median traffic, $70 median price — this placement is 7% above the median on cost and about 3.3× the index median on audience. Listings in that section range from $30 at the cheap end, so the question is not whether $75 is high for a link, but whether it is high for this one.

Generalist inventory also varies more than any other kind, which is why the numbers in this brief matter more than the label. A 38 DA domain with 18k estimated monthly visits and Mixed / stated at order 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.

The link attribute on this property is recorded as stated at order: some sections follow, some do not. We check the specific URL before you commit, and if the page turns out to be nofollowed we tell you before invoicing.

Two comparisons decide whether soldmagazine.co.uk at $75 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.

Two things the metrics cannot tell you, so we say them plainly: whether the host will still accept a contribution article this month, and whether the section your piece lands in is crawled weekly or monthly. Everything else on this page — 38 DA, 38 PA, 53 DR, 18,000 visits, $75, mixed / stated at order — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.

soldmagazine.co.uk out-ranks 75% of the index on audience size (about 3.3× the index median) and 36% on authority. The placement costs $4.17 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 78% of the DA 30-39 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $75 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Agencies filling a monthly quota with links nobody will object to.
• Thin profiles where diversity matters more than raw authority.
• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• Do not buy this if you need the anchor to be your money keyword and the host is marked Mixed / stated at order. Attribute and anchor politics matter less than the page's survival, and a forced anchor is the easiest thing for an editor to change.
• Do not buy this as part of a burst. 7–12 days is the delivery window for one placement; a month's worth of placements across several hosts is the pattern that works.

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.

• Name a real author A person with a title and a bio. Anonymous contributions on General sites are the first thing an editor distrusts, and the first thing a reader discounts.
• 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.
• Write 900–1,300 words Long enough to be worth crawling and citing, short enough that a real desk will read all of it. Anything longer gets skimmed and trimmed, and trimming is where links go.

Anchor plan for this host

• a descriptive anchor that repeats a phrase the article already uses naturally
• 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.
• Disclosure policy. Whether the host labels paid contributions. A label costs you nothing in link value and protects the host from the penalty that removes the page.
• Whether the exact placement URL is indexable. A 38 DA domain happily serves noindexed contributor pages. We read the robots meta tag on the article template, not on the homepage.

1. You send the target URL and your angle The page you want the link to point at, the subject, and any author you want credited. Five minutes of input.
2. We confirm availability on soldmagazine.co.uk Publisher slots move week to week, including on 38 DA properties. Nothing is promised until the section and the placement URL are confirmed, and we tell you before you pay if the slot has gone.
3. You approve the brief and the shortlist Where the host gives a choice of section or existing article, we send options with the numbers that matter: traffic, indexation, neighbours.
4. The article is drafted and edited for the host Written for soldmagazine.co.uk'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 $75 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).

What comes with this placement

• The article itself, drafted to the host's style and edited before submission.
• Link attribute verified on the published page and reported as found.
• White-label PDF + CSV report — forward it to a client unchanged.
• 12-month replacement cover: if the link drops, we rebuild it.
