400 sites from €36 excl. VAT: median authority 30, median traffic 160 visits per month. Dofollow links, secure payment, guaranteed publication.
The Dutch tech scene is dense, English-friendly and highly competitive, which makes editorial backlinks from local IT publications a practical way to build credibility. This page covers 401 sites in the High-Tech & IT category published in the Netherlands, with prices, authority and traffic figures to help you plan a realistic campaign.
The Netherlands has a strong ecosystem of SaaS vendors, hosting providers, cybersecurity firms, fintech startups and IT consultancies. A link from a Dutch tech site tells Google that your brand is relevant to this market, which matters if you sell to Dutch buyers or want your Dutch-language pages to gain visibility. If you are working on several markets at once, our guide to international SEO and backlinks explains how to balance country profiles.
Good fits include software reviews, how-to tutorials, comparisons, cybersecurity advice, cloud and infrastructure explainers, and case studies. Sponsored articles work best when they genuinely help a reader solve a technical or buying problem, not when they read like a press release.

Of the 401 sites available, 98% offer dofollow links. Median authority is 30, and 30% of sites reach 30 or more. The distribution is: 222 sites at 0–19, 60 at 20–29, 35 at 30–39, 59 at 40–59 and 25 at 60 or above. Median organic traffic is 182 visits per month, so many sites are small, niche publications rather than large portals.
On budget, prices start at €36 excluding VAT, article included. The median is €452, and the top 10% most powerful sites start at €2,786. A sensible approach is to mix a few mid-range placements with several affordable, well-targeted ones rather than spending everything on a single prestigious domain. For a wider framework on pricing, read how to estimate what a link is worth.
Start with topical relevance: a site that regularly covers software, devices, networks or digital services will give a stronger signal than a generic blog. Then check language and audience. A Dutch-language article suits local lead generation, while an English one can suit B2B tech aimed at an international audience. Authority and traffic come next, but treat them as indicators rather than guarantees. Our overview of Trust Flow, Domain Authority and DR explains what each metric can and cannot tell you.
Look at the site itself: genuine articles, consistent publishing, real readers and a reasonable number of outbound links. Be wary of pages that accept anything, and learn the warning signs in this guide on spotting PBNs and link farms. You can also browse all Tech & IT backlinks to compare with other countries, such as Germany.
The most common mistake is chasing high authority while ignoring relevance. A link from an unrelated site with a strong score rarely helps as much as one from a focused tech publication. Another is over-optimised anchors: vary them between brand, URL and natural phrases, as described in this piece on anchor text distribution.
Finally, avoid buying everything at once. Spread placements over time, keep content genuinely useful and measure results through referral traffic, rankings and leads. If you want a full process, the guide to buying backlinks safely covers each step.
