Sell sponsored posts on your website: free sign-up, you set your price, vetted advertisers, secure payouts.
If you run a blog or a niche site, you can sell sponsored posts on your website and turn existing traffic into a steady income stream without cluttering your pages with ads. LinkBooster connects publishers with advertisers looking for relevant placements, and you stay in control of your price and your editorial standards. This guide explains what you can earn, how to prepare your site, which rules apply, and how to start.
Most publishers start with display advertising or affiliate programs. Display ads pay per impression or click, so revenue depends heavily on volume: a site needs large, steady traffic before the numbers become meaningful, and the ads can slow pages and hurt the reading experience. Affiliate links pay only when a reader buys, which means you can send hundreds of visitors and earn nothing if the offer does not convert.
A sponsored post works differently. An advertiser pays a fixed fee to publish an article on your site, usually with a link to their own website. The income does not depend on clicks or sales, it is known before you accept the order, and one article can bring in more than months of display ads on a small site. The trade-off is that you sell a limited number of slots, and each one must be compatible with your audience and your editorial line.
In practice, many publishers combine the three models. Sponsored articles bring predictable lump sums, while affiliate content and a few ad units cover the long tail. If you want the full picture of this approach, our publisher's guide to monetizing a website with sponsored posts goes deeper into the economics.
The most useful reference is what advertisers actually pay. The LinkBooster catalog lists 227736 sites, and prices (article included, excluding VAT) rise with authority. For sites with a DR or DA between 0 and 19, the median is 139 €, with a range from 69 € (25th percentile) to 335 € (75th percentile) across 162709 sites. For 30–39, the median is 257 € (107 € to 575 €). For 50–59, it is 195 € (81 € to 500 €). At 60–69, the median reaches 410 €, and for 70 and above it is 1224 €, with a range of 335 € to 3378 €.
Country matters as much as authority. Median prices are 105 € in France (124916 sites), 191 € in the US, 238 € in Great Britain, 288 € in Spain, 350 € in Canada, 432 € in Italy, 500 € in the Netherlands and 731 € in Germany (13715 sites). At the other end, Ukraine sits at 47 € and the Czech Republic at 99 €. These are medians of listed prices, not guarantees: your own revenue depends on the price you set and on whether advertisers accept it.
Topic also plays a role, since advertisers pay more for placements that fit their market. You can browse examples in categories such as finance backlinks, tech and IT backlinks or health and wellness backlinks to see how similar sites are positioned.

Advertisers look at the same things before ordering, and each listing on LinkBooster displays authority, estimated traffic, topic, country, language, price and link type. Make sure your site gives a clear and honest picture on each of these points. A consistent topic, regular publication and real content, not just a handful of old posts, make a site far easier to sell.
Create a short page explaining your conditions: the topics you accept, the topics you refuse, the minimum and maximum article length, how many links are allowed, how long the article stays online and whether you label it as sponsored. This saves time on every order and avoids misunderstandings. Keep your analytics in order too, since traffic figures and audience location are what justify your price.
Finally, keep the quality of the site in mind. Advertisers and search engines are wary of networks of sites built only to sell links, a topic covered in our article on how to spot PBNs and link farms. A site with a genuine readership and a limited number of sponsored articles stays more attractive, and safer, over time.
Selling placements comes with responsibilities toward your readers and toward search engines. In many countries, consumer and advertising rules require that paid content be clearly identified. A visible mention such as "sponsored article" or "partner content" is a simple and common way to do this. Check the rules that apply where you operate, as requirements vary and this page is not legal advice.
On the SEO side, Google asks that paid links be marked with the rel="sponsored" attribute, and its guidelines treat unmarked paid links as link spam. Be honest about the trade-off: a link marked sponsored carries less ranking signal, while an unmarked one can expose the site to a manual action. Many advertisers still buy placements for the readers, the visibility and the context. The risk is real but manageable if you stay selective and transparent. Our comparison of sponsored content and guest posting explains how each format is perceived.
Quality control protects you as well. Refuse topics that clash with your audience, avoid excessive outbound links, and do not let anchor text look manipulated. The article on anchor text distribution and Google penalties shows what a natural profile looks like from the advertiser's side.
Registration is free. You add your site, then set your own price: you decide what a sponsored post costs on your site, and you can refuse any order that does not fit. To compare your price with the market, check the pricing and backlink costs page. Details on the overall flow are in how LinkBooster works, and the dedicated page to sell links and guest posts on your site covers the publisher side.
When an advertiser orders, the payment is held by the platform until the article is published. If it is not published within the stated delay, which ranges from 7 to 30 days, the client is refunded. You are paid after publication. The article can be supplied by the client or ordered as an option, so you do not necessarily have to write it, though you keep the right to reject content that does not meet your standards.
On the buyer side, advertisers use the catalog to buy sponsored posts on vetted media. Knowing how they choose helps you present your site better. LinkBooster is published by Novatis Agency.
It depends on your authority, country and topic. In the catalog, the median price is 139 € for DR/DA 0–19 and 1224 € for 70 and above, with wide ranges inside each band. These are listed prices, not guaranteed revenue.
Not necessarily. The catalog includes many sites in the lowest authority band, and advertisers also weigh topic, country and relevance. Estimated traffic is shown on each listing, so honest figures help you sell.
No. The article can be supplied by the client or ordered as an option. You can still refuse an order or content that does not fit your site.
You set it yourself when you list your site. Compare it with the medians for your authority band and country, then adjust based on the orders you receive. Our guide to backlink prices in 2026 offers more context.
