Manual forum threads, plus blog, Web 2.0 and profile placements — priced per link, from an account inventory we've spent five years building. iGaming, crypto and adult are normal orders here, and they cost the same as everything else.
Most sellers pick one type and tell you the other three are worthless. That's a sales position, not an analysis. Each of these does something specific, and a profile built entirely from any single one looks exactly as unnatural as it is. Priced per link, order any mix.
A new topic or a contextual reply in an existing one, posted from an account with history. Indexed, dofollow where permitted, reported with live URLs.
An account on a real forum or community with your URL in the profile. No thread, no context — that's the point. These exist for volume and anchor dilution: they're the layer that makes your contextual links look like the tip of something bigger rather than the whole profile.
A property on a hosted platform that you control end to end. Exact anchor, exact placement, and it stays live because nobody moderates a page you own. Also the standard target to point tier-2 links at.
A link in a comment under a post on a live, indexed blog. The cheapest thing on this list and the fastest to place — bought for volume and anchor spread, not for context.
A real campaign uses several of these. If you're not sure what the split should be, send me the site and I'll propose one.
Nobody buying at this price is expecting a viral thread. What they're expecting is that the link exists, gets found by Google, points where they said, and is still there in three months. That's the whole spec, and it's where most cheap orders quietly fail.
An unindexed link is not a link. Indexing isn't bundled into the price — for $1 extra per link I push the placements through an indexing service and report what came back. Your call whether you want it.
6-month replacement window. Anything removed inside it gets replaced at no cost, no argument, no “send us a screenshot and we'll investigate.”
Your order history is kept. Order again in six months and you get new properties, not the same list resold — which is exactly what happens when a vendor works off a fixed inventory of forty sites.
Exact anchors, URL targets and the split between them, executed as specified. If you're feeding a tier-2 layer, the anchor control is the entire point of the order.
Everything above is in the report as a live URL you can open. Nothing here is a claim you have to take on faith.
Two anonymised delivery reports, exactly as clients receive them — live URLs, anchors, link types, DR, dates. Client names and target URLs redacted, everything else untouched.
Per-link pricing, any mix. No forced packages. Order 40 profiles and 10 forum threads if that's what the campaign needs.
DR 30+ on forum placements. Typical range 30–60, average around 40. Below 30 gets replaced free. I quote the real range instead of writing “high DR” and arguing about it later.
Metrics vary by design on foundation tiers. Profile and Web 2.0 links aren't sold on DR — buying them for DR misunderstands what they're for. I'll tell you what you're getting; I won't dress it up.
Aged accounts with history. Five years of accumulated inventory across forums and communities.
Dofollow where the platform allows. Where it's nofollow, it's marked as nofollow in your report. No quiet padding.
Niche relevance where it exists. Real relevance on forum and blog tiers. Foundation tiers are volume — I won't pretend a profile link is topically targeted.
Full reporting. Live URL, anchor, type, DR, platform, date. One spreadsheet, verifiable in ten minutes.
Indexing on request, +$1 per link. Not bundled into the per-link price and not quietly skipped either — you choose, and the report says what got indexed.
6-month replacement window. Anything removed inside six months gets replaced at no cost.
Escrow if you want it. Order through Upwork and the money sits in escrow until the links are delivered and checked. I'm the only vendor in this price bracket who can offer that, because I'm a Top Rated freelancer with a public record rather than an anonymous checkout.
What I won't tell you: that links alone will move a competitive head term. They won't. What this buys you is volume you can't assemble yourself, anchor spread you can't get from guest posts, and a profile that doesn't look like it was built in one purchase. If your site has a technical problem or thin content, links won't fix it — send it over and I'll say so before you pay.
Most vendors either decline gambling and adult outright, or accept the order and immediately add 20–50% to the invoice for the privilege. I've worked these verticals for five years, and on volume tiers they cost me no more than anything else — so you pay the same $4–$5 as a SaaS client does. The only place a grey premium applies is moderated forums, where the accounts really do burn faster and the work really is harder.
No approval process, no vertical screening, no “let me check whether we can work with your industry.” Send the site, get a price the same day.
We've placed in almost every language pool there is. Native English, Russian and Ukrainian, fluent German, Polish and Japanese with review — and beyond that, CJK scripts and right-to-left languages like Hebrew and Arabic are routine here, not a special request. Non-English properties are less saturated, less policed by link vendors, and almost never in your competitor's backlink profile.
URL, target pages, anchors (or let me build the spread), niche, and anything off-limits.
Which types, how many of each, which markets. You see it before anything goes out.
Swap anything you don't like. Nothing starts until it's signed off.
Turnaround by volume — see pricing.
Full spreadsheet. Replacements free for 6 months.
One point of contact throughout — me. A team does the placement volume; you never have to explain your brief to them, and you never wait on someone to relay an answer.
Per link, no minimum order. Build the mix you actually need — the volume discount applies to the total, whatever it's made of.
| Type | Price | What it's for |
|---|---|---|
| Forum thread — new topic or existing | $5 | Contextual, DR 30+, referral clicks |
| Web 2.0 submit | $5 | Controlled property, exact anchor |
| Blog comment | $3 | Cheapest volume, anchor dilution |
| Profile link | $4 | Foundation volume, anchor dilution |
Priority queue, rolling plan, no re-briefing each order, dedicated capacity reserved for you. This is the lowest rate available and it exists because a predictable monthly volume is worth more to me than a higher margin on one-off orders.
No grey-niche surcharge. Gambling, adult, betting and crypto pay the same $4–$5 as every other vertical. Most vendors add 20–50% the moment you say casino. I only charge more where the work is genuinely harder — moderated forums, see below.
Moderated-forum placements (live, hand-moderated boards, aged accounts, DR 30+):[MODERATED_PRICE] per link,[NICHE_UPLIFT_MODERATED] for grey verticals. Different product, different page → see moderated forum backlinks
Payment: USDT (TRC-20 or ERC-20), BTC, bank transfer, or Upwork escrow if you want the money held until delivery. Crypto invoices are priced in USD and the rate is locked when the invoice is issued. Invoicing is manual — you'll get a payment link once the order is agreed.

Great job, I got the links and I even began ranking for the keywords. Nowadays is hard to find a responsible back-link person who you can count on and Max delivered. Niche edits are solved for me
I highly recommend Max for his exceptional forum link building. He provided top-quality links from relevant posts and crafted insightful comments. His professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. A definite asset to any project! Thank You for the bonus links :)
I am satisfied with the work done. I requested canonical forum threads open to indexing not older than 1 year with a large blacklist and they did really good job, with 1 revision though. Will be glad to give another project to these guys.
Outstanding experience with this freelancer! I ordered 5 backlinks, and the quality far exceeded my expectations. Not only were the resources well-chosen, but the accounts used were also top-notch. The work was completed on time and met all my requirements. Highly recommend!
Very high quality links. i recommend it to everyone. + on each top unique texts + very fast and quality work + seo-urls + Excellent understanding of the concept of the site
Max is one of the best freelancers I've ever worked with — professional, fast, and genuinely invested in the success of the project. We hired him to optimize SEO for 100 pages, and not only did he deliver exactly what was promised, he went above and beyond by analyzing the full site and offering smart improvements I didn't even ask for.
Max is detail-oriented proffesional. His work is always of high quality. Thanks and we'll come back to order more links)
It was an exceptional work: from the completion of task in its essence to the communication - everything wss on the very high level! I can truly recommend to work with Max for anyone!
I was very pleased to work with this seller, He did his work really well and faster than the specified term. Also, he has no problem accepting edits to his work. I will definitely be back for your services!
Working with Max on SEO was a FANTASTIC experience! His professionalism and INNOVATIVE approach not only exceeded expectations but also made communication a breeze due to his language fluency and politeness. Highly recommend Max for any SEO needs!
Great work. Very honest, but polite communication. Full recommandation.
The order was fulfilled as expected. We had a small remark that was corrected instantly and overall received a quick and great service.
Exceptional work. Thank you.
Really excellent SEO work, will definitely work with Max in the Future
Maksym is great and gave great advice's and work on outreach
Most of the order volume is repeat buyers: davidsanch 70+ orders, krotovstudio 40+, susanvargas720 20+, recail78 13 on the German gig, joshi_umesh 12 since 2023.
I'm Max — SEO out of Kyiv, five years in, Top Rated on Upwork with 100% Job Success and 4.9★ across platforms. I run this; a small team I've worked with for years handles placement volume. That's the honest structure, and it's the reason 800 links a month is a commitment rather than an aspiration.
What that doesn't change is who you talk to. Briefs, questions, problems, invoices — me, every time. No account manager relaying your requirements to someone you'll never meet, no ticket queue, no “our team will get back to you.” When a placement goes wrong you're talking to the person who decides how it gets fixed, not to someone who has to ask.
Most of the five years went into one unglamorous thing: building and keeping alive the account inventory that makes $4 links possible. That's the actual asset. Anyone can write a forum post; almost nobody has somewhere credible to post it from.
We've worked SaaS, crypto and fintech, e-commerce, affiliate, local, iGaming and adult. Certified through Semrush (SEO Toolkit, AI for SEO), HubSpot and Google Analytics — which matters less than the logged hours, but people ask.
Yes — they're most of what I do. And on volume tiers there's no grey-niche surcharge: casino pays the same $4–$5 as e-commerce. The premium only appears on moderated-forum placements, where the work genuinely costs me more. No approval process, no vertical screening. Send the site, get a price the same day.
As a layer, yes — they're foundation links, and a backlink profile with none of them looks stranger than one with plenty. What's genuinely risky is a profile built only of them, pointed straight at money pages with exact-match anchors. That's a strategy problem, not a link-type problem, and it's the part I'll advise you on.
Forum placements: DR 30+ minimum, typically 30–60, averaging around 40, replaced free if below. Blog, Web 2.0 and profile tiers aren't sold on DR — they're volume and anchor layers, and buying them for DR is buying the wrong thing.
A typical order lands around a 60/40 mix of dofollow to nofollow — dofollow wherever the platform allows it, and that split is what a natural profile looks like anyway. Where it's nofollow, it says nofollow in your report. I don't pad reports with unmarked nofollow links.
Six-month replacement window on every order. Anything removed inside it gets replaced free — you send the URL, I replace it, that's the whole process.
Only if you order it — indexing is $1 extra per link. I run the placements through an indexing service and the report shows what came back. Be suspicious of anyone promising 100%: nobody controls Google's crawl budget, and a vendor who claims they do is either lying or hasn't checked.
Yes — order via Upwork and the money is held until the links are delivered and you've checked them. Most vendors at this price can't offer that because there's no verified identity behind the checkout. Mine's public: Top Rated, 100% Job Success, and a review history you can read before you spend anything.
Both, and it matters which part is which. A small team does placement volume — that's how 800 links a month is possible at all. Strategy, your brief, the shortlist, anything that goes wrong, and the invoice are me. You will not be handed to an account manager, and you will not explain your requirements twice.
No, and be wary of anyone who says otherwise. Links diversify anchors, add volume you can't build alone, and make a profile look accumulated rather than purchased. Technical problems and thin content have to be fixed separately.
Yes. Unbranded reports, your client never sees my name.
USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20), BTC, bank transfer, or Upwork escrow. Crypto invoices are priced in USD and locked at issue.
Message me on Telegram with your URL and target keywords. You'll get back a straight answer on whether links are the right spend right now — including when they're not — plus a proposed mix and a price. No call required unless you want one.
Prefer email or platform escrow? Upwork works too — the money sits in escrow until the links are delivered and checked.
