Publishing on yankeesvs-dodgers.com — metrics, brief and price

Mid-market at $70: the band where judgement about the site matters more than the invoice.

There is a second job these placements do that is worth naming: they make a young or thin profile look normal. A domain that acquires 40-level links from a spread of ordinary publications, in drips, over months, looks like a business that has been around. A domain that acquires forty links from aggressive networks in a fortnight looks like a campaign, and it is the pattern rather than the individual link that gets noticed.

The arithmetic a buyer should see: 12,900 estimated visits a month, $70 per placement, so $5.43 per thousand visits for a do-follow link on a site scoring 40 DA and 39 PA. Snapshot September 2026; availability and the exact link attribute are confirmed on the live URL before an invoice, which is the only part of this page that changes week to week.

Where yankeesvs-dodgers.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.

Our observation on this host is do-follow outbound links in editorial content. That is the attribute, not the value: the 40 DA and 12.9k monthly visits are what the attribute is attached to.

Two comparisons decide whether yankeesvs-dodgers.com at $70 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.

Ranked against the 2,000 listings we index, yankeesvs-dodgers.com sits in the top 69% for audience and the top 52% for authority, at $5.43 per thousand monthly visits. Inside the DA 40-49 band (703 listings) that price ranks 283rd for value, which is the comparison to use: nobody competes with the whole index, they compete with the sites a buyer would book instead.

yankeesvs-dodgers.com out-ranks 69% of the index on audience size (about 2.3× the index median) and 52% on authority. The placement costs $5.43 per thousand estimated visits, and cheaper per visit than 60% of the DA 40-49 band. Those two figures, not the DA column alone, decide whether $70 is a good trade or just a listed one.

• New domains that need a plausible first set of citations before anything ambitious.
• Local and service businesses whose market has few specialist publications left.
• Anyone testing guest posting before committing to a premium title.
• 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.
• 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 comparison of two options a reader is choosing between. 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.

• Keep the tone flat No superlatives, no promises about outcomes, no invented before-and-after. The style that survives editorial review in General 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.
• 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

• one brand or URL anchor in the first half, and nothing else
• if you already have links from similar sites, vary the anchor shape entirely

• 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.
• Link attribute on a live example. Not the pitch, not the rate card: the rel attribute on an outbound link in a real article published this month.
• Ownership. Several of the listings in our index turn out to share a publisher or an ad network. Relevance does not multiply when five links come from one hand, so we check the footer, the registration and the ad slots.
• Indexation of the host's recent output. We run site:yankeesvs-dodgers.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.

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 yankeesvs-dodgers.com Publisher slots move week to week, including on 40 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 yankeesvs-dodgers.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 $70 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 General section of our index at the same budget is easy to arrange.

What comes with this placement

• Anchor and target page exactly as approved in the brief, or the placement is not counted.
• One contextual placement inside an article written for yankeesvs-dodgers.com's audience, not a link directory entry.

• 12-month replacement cover: if the link drops, we rebuild it.
