Link Building Is Broken. I Fixed It.

Who Am I?

I'm an SEO pro who's been doing link building since 2018. Started as a freelance content marketer, pitched hundreds of guest posts, built links for SaaS companies, e-commerce brands, and local businesses. I've seen what works and what doesn't.

Here's what I learned: the hardest part isn't writing. It's finding sites worth pitching. You can write a killer article in 2 hours. But finding 20 high-DR sites in your niche? That takes days. Verifying their metrics? Another week. Getting contact emails? Good luck.

So in 2023, I started scraping. Built a custom tool to crawl thousands of sites, verify their metrics via Ahrefs and Moz APIs, pull traffic data from SimilarWeb, and extract contact info. Took 8 months and cost me thousands in API credits. But it worked.

Now I have 9,700+ verified guest post sites across 50+ niches. Every site has real DR/DA scores, traffic estimates, pricing ranges, and direct contact emails. No guesswork. No dead ends. Just data.

The Solution: Real Data, Real Results

Dobacklinks is simple: it's the biggest curated directory of guest post opportunities, with metrics you can trust. Think of it as Bloomberg Terminal for link builders. Every site is scored on a 100-point quality algorithm based on:

All data comes from industry-standard sources: Ahrefs for DR, Moz for DA, SimilarWeb for traffic. No made-up numbers. Sites in the top 5% globally (DA 60+) are flagged as premium. Sites with spam scores over 30% are filtered out.

The result? You can find 50 high-quality targets in your niche in under 10 minutes. Compare pricing. Check traffic. Copy contact emails. Start outreach same day. That's the goal.

Why Quality Links Matter (The Numbers)

Backlinks aren't just about ranking anymore. They're about trust. Google uses links to judge expertise and authority. Here's what the data says:

• 93.8% of link builders prioritize quality over quantity (Ahrefs State of Link Building 2024). Volume doesn't matter if the links are trash.
• Pages with 100+ backlinks get 3.2x more organic traffic than pages with 10-20 links. More links = more visibility, if they're from real sites.
• Domain Authority 60+ sites are in the top 5% globally (Moz). These are the links that move the needle. Anything below DA 30 is noise.
• 66.5% of backlinks from the last 9 years are broken (Ahrefs). Sites go offline. Content gets deleted. Your link disappears. That's why established sites (pre-2022) score higher in our database.
• The average DA for top-ranking pages is 67. If you're targeting competitive keywords, you need links from sites in that range. Anything less won't compete.

Bottom line: one link from a DA 70 site is worth 100 links from DA 20 sites. Our directory helps you find the former, not waste time on the latter.

Who Is This For?

Two Ways to Use This

Where the Data Comes From (Trustworthy Sources Only)

I don't make up numbers. Every metric in this directory comes from industry-standard APIs that SEO professionals use daily. Here's what powers the database:

• Ahrefs Domain Rating (DR) - The gold standard for link authority. Ranges from 0-100. Sites with DR 60+ are in the top tier.
• Moz Domain Authority (DA) - Another trusted metric. Correlates with Google rankings. DA 50+ means the site has serious authority.
• SimilarWeb Traffic Data - Real monthly visitors, not estimates. Includes bounce rate, pages per visit, and traffic sources (organic, direct, social).
• Moz Spam Score - Flags sketchy sites. Anything over 30% is filtered out. You won't find PBNs or link farms here.
• Google News Status - Sites approved for Google News are held to higher editorial standards. They're more stable and trustworthy.
• Sample Guest Posts - Direct links to published examples so you can see writing quality and link placement before pitching.

All metrics are refreshed regularly via automated scripts. If a site's DR drops or traffic tanks, you'll know. No outdated data from 2019 lists.

The Bigger Picture: Why I Built This

Link building shouldn't be this hard. You're trying to grow a business, rank for competitive keywords, and drive traffic. But instead of focusing on strategy, you're stuck Googling "guest post sites in [niche]" and getting garbage results.

The SEO industry loves complexity. Tools cost $200/month. Agencies charge $5,000 retainers. Courses promise "insider secrets." But the reality is simple: you need high-quality backlinks from real websites, and you need them fast.

That's why I built Dobacklinks. No monthly fees. No paywalls hiding pricing data. No 30-page guides explaining how to use it. Just a searchable database of 9,700+ sites with all the metrics you need to make smart decisions. If you want to DIY, great. If you want me to handle it, even better. Either way, you save time and get results.
