Overview
Editorial.Link is a link building agency built around one promise: the sites it places on aren't selling links. Every target goes through a pre-approval step where you review and approve the site before outreach, which is its answer to the link farm problem.
It was founded in 2020, and its team of 28 specialists reports delivering more than 18,000 editorial links to over 500 clients, with placements averaging DR 67. Clients include HubSpot, G2, monday.com and PandaDoc. First links are typically delivered within seven days of approval, and lost placements are replaced.
Pricing is flat rather than tiered: about $300 to $375 per link whatever the DR, starting with a single trial link so you can test quality before signing a contract, and packages from $1,750. It holds a 5.0 rating across 81 Clutch reviews and 5.0 from 27 on G2.

Why flat pricing changes the math
Most services charge more as DR rises, so a DR 70 link can cost four times a DR 30 one. Editorial.Link charges roughly the same either way, which means its high-authority placements are often cheaper than tiered rivals' while its low-DR links look expensive. If you only want strong sites, that pricing works in your favor.
Who it suits
SaaS and B2B teams that want a small number of genuinely editorial links and will approve each target, plus buyers who want to test with a single trial link before signing a contract.
