Guest posting is a powerful tool for website promotion, but commissions on link-building platforms can increase costs by 10-15%. This is especially noticeable if the budget is tight or the business is in an off-season.
The Links-Stream team has developed a solution that allows you to bypass service fees and optimize your budget at the same time – the Outside Links feature on the marketplace, which helps you save on links without sacrificing quality.
We’ve created a simple guide to using this feature with a real-world example. Try it yourself and see how easy it is to reduce your link-building costs 😉
What is Outside Links, and how does it work?
On most marketplaces, the cost of guest posts often increases due to service commissions and additional fees. Thanks to the Outside Links feature on the Links-Stream marketplace, you can order sites found on other platforms at their actual price – without unnecessary markups or hidden charges.
This feature will be useful for you if:
- You don't want to overpay. Forget about fees for funding the service or placing links. Simply indicate the marketplace where the platform price is lower, and we’ll cover the difference for you.
- You couldn’t find the platform in our database. No problem! We’ll add it for you and connect it to your project.
- You’re tired of tracking payments and deadlines across multiple services. On our platform, you can consolidate everything in one place, and the intuitive navigation will help you easily monitor progress.
- Unexpected situations. While other marketplaces reject placements and simply refund your money, we not only compensate but also offer equivalent alternatives for you to choose from.
How to save on link-building platform commissions?
- To better understand how the Outside Links feature works, let’s explain it with an example.
Log in to your dashboard on the Links-Stream platform or sign up if you don’t have an account yet. Go to the "Marketplace" tab. Open the filters and enable the Outside Links toggle.
2. Next, specify the platform you found on another link-building platform where you want to place a link without service fees. For example: telecitynews24.it.
Choose a marketplace from our list where you found the desired site and specify its price without additional fees (if your marketplace is not on the list, please contact our manager).
Also, select one of the reasons for your order:
- Convenient way to purchase – You need a convenient way to make a purchase. Our interface is user-friendly, offers multiple payment options, and the service is fast and reliable.
- Looking for a better price – You found a marketplace with a lower price than ours and want to save money.
- You don't have this site – The platform is not in the Links-Stream database but is important for your strategy.
Finally, click Add to cart and choose the project for which you want to place the link.
$21.28 in additional fees may seem insignificant, but if the link's cost reaches a thousand euros, the service fee can amount to €2070, which significantly impacts overall expenses.
Thanks to the Outside Links feature, you pay only for the platform itself, with no hidden charges or extra fees.
All you need to do to save your budget and get the maximum efficiency from your link-building investments is to register on our platform and use this feature 😎
