688 sites from €38 excl. VAT: median authority 34, median traffic 343 visits per month. Dofollow links, secure payment, guaranteed publication.
The Dutch games and entertainment niche covers gaming news, esports, streaming, film, music, board games and online leisure, and it reaches a highly connected, English-friendly audience. LinkBooster lists 689 sites in this category, so there is plenty of room to choose by authority, traffic and budget. Here is how to read the numbers and pick links that serve your goals.
A backlink from a relevant Dutch site tells search engines that your page matters to a real local audience. For a game studio, a streaming platform, a ticketing service or an entertainment shop targeting the Netherlands, a link from a gaming blog or leisure magazine carries more weight than one from an unrelated directory. It also sends readers who are already interested in what you offer.
Local relevance matters in particular when your content is in Dutch or aimed at Dutch players. If you plan to expand across several markets, our guide to international SEO and backlinks explains how to balance links from different countries, and you can compare this market with Games & Entertainment backlinks in Germany.
Prices start at 38 € per article, VAT excluded, with a median of 684 €. The top 10% of the strongest sites start at 2497 €. The median authority is 34 and 30% of sites reach 30 or more. Median organic traffic is 328 visits per month, and 99% of links are dofollow.
The authority split shows where the supply sits: 386 sites are in the 0–19 range, 93 in 20–29, 87 in 30–39, 111 in 40–59 and 12 at 60 or above. Most inventory is therefore small or mid-sized, while a limited group of strong sites exists for bigger campaigns. To understand how those scores should be read, see our comparison of SEO metrics such as DR, DA and Trust Flow.
Start with topical fit: a review site, an esports outlet or a game-focused blog is a better home for your article than a general site with an occasional entertainment page. Then check that the site has real readers, a consistent publishing history and content in the language of your audience. A low authority score is not a problem if the site is relevant and has steady traffic.
A balanced plan often mixes a few mid-range sites, in the 30–59 authority bands, with several affordable ones, rather than a single expensive placement. Vary your anchor texts, as explained in our guide on anchor text distribution, and write articles that give readers something useful, such as a game guide, a release round-up or an event preview. You can browse all sponsored articles or the wider Netherlands backlinks catalogue.
With a median near 684 €, a campaign of five to ten links can be planned from a clear budget, and cheaper placements from 38 € are useful for testing. Our overview of backlink prices and link value helps you judge whether a quote is fair.
The most common mistakes are buying on authority alone, ignoring topical relevance, and using the same anchor everywhere. Avoid sites that publish on every subject or show signs of link networks; the guide to spotting PBNs and link farms lists the warning signs. Links also take time to show an effect, so measure results over months, not days.
