The writetruly.com placement brief

Entry price at $20, which is the correct way to buy authority you have not yet verified.

Also expect strict link limits, usually one, and frequent nofollow rules on institutional sites. A 54 DA educational page with 2.6k monthly visits is worth having in your profile for plausibility and citation, and you should not expect it to shift a competitive keyword on its own.

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 — 54 DA, 48 PA, 42 DR, 2,613 visits, $20, do-follow — is measured, dated September 2026, and available to you before you commit.

Educational publications keep their pages for years, which is the main reason to place here: a genuinely useful admissions or study guide is consulted on the same dates every academic year, so a link inside it keeps being crawled long after a news article would have decayed. It also means the bar is set by the site's own reference-style content, and a thin promotional contribution stands out badly.

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 writetruly.com at $20 is a good buy: this listing against the 30 other Education 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.

Ranked against the 2,000 listings we index, writetruly.com sits in the top 31% for audience and the top 87% for authority, at $7.65 per thousand monthly visits. Inside the DA 50-59 band (302 listings) that price ranks 104th for value, which is the comparison to use: nobody competes with the whole index, they compete with the sites a buyer would book instead.

writetruly.com out-ranks 31% of the index on audience size (roughly 48% of the index median) and 87% on authority. The placement costs $7.65 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 66% of the DA 50-59 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $20 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• Tutors and exam boards targeting seasonal query spikes.
• Universities, colleges and sixth forms needing reference-style citations.
• Campus-adjacent services: accommodation, lending, relocation.
• Do not buy this as part of a burst. 3–6 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 page it would sit on is already crowded with five other commercial links — we will usually flag that at the availability check and offer a different section.

Pitch angle: a guide to a qualification that corrects a common misunderstanding. That is the shape we take to a Education audience, because it is the version the host's own editor has a reason to keep.

• Open with the thing you know One specific claim, a number or a dated decision, in the first two sentences. Editors in Education positions decide whether to keep a contribution in about that long.
• Keep the tone flat No superlatives, no promises about outcomes, no invented before-and-after. The style that survives editorial review in Education is the style that sounds like someone reporting on their own work.
• Send the anchor text in the draft Not afterwards. Once the editor has set the copy, changing the anchor is a new request and a new reason for the link to end up in a bio block.

Anchor plan for this host

• no enrolment or fee keywords in the anchor; they trip both editors and filters
• the institution name in the author line

• Template stability. Redesigns and CMS migrations kill placements. We check the age of the site's oldest surviving article as a proxy for how long a page there tends to live.
• What happens on removal. writetruly.com is covered by the same 12-month replacement terms as every other listing, which means a dropped link is rebuilt and re-reported rather than argued about.
• Whether the exact placement URL is indexable. A 54 DA domain happily serves noindexed contributor pages. We read the robots meta tag on the article template, not on the homepage.
• Editorial activity. A site with 2.6k monthly visits and nothing published in six months is a decaying asset, and decaying assets get dropped from the index in batches.

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 writetruly.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.

Rates on this kind of listing drift with the host's own demand, so $20 is a current figure rather than a locked one. Volume changes the maths: a second placement on the same domain is usually refused, whereas a second placement across the Education section of our index at the same budget is easy to arrange.
