Overview
MeUp positions itself as a link building platform for restricted niches, with publisher relationships in iGaming, crypto, finance, CBD and dating that many marketplaces turn away, across 100+ markets. Its pitch to agencies is predictability: clear pricing, defined processes and support that helps select the right deals for a niche.
Reviewers back that up. One agency buyer highlights predictable processes and pricing transparency as the reasons they keep using it at scale; another describes clean, reliable backlinks and a support team that checks in to make sure results land. A third calls it a genuine partner for both link building and digital PR, valuing relevance over raw volume.
Self-serve placements start at $20 with no minimum, managed campaigns start at $3,000 a month with no service fees, and every live link is monitored automatically. In our September 2026 price study, its 5,633 listings had a median of $340, a small slice of the 180,000+ publishers it claims.
