_New independent site scores 70 providers across 12 service rankings and 15 industry
rankings under a published methodology with fixed weights, cited evidence, no paid
placement and a public corrections route._

Tallinn, Estonia, September 8, 2026 — Link Building Rankings has published its first
public rankings of link building providers, scoring 70 companies under a written
methodology that is published before any provider is placed in order. The site, 
at [Link Building Rankings](https://www.linkbuildingrankings.com/), covers 12 service
categories and 15 industries, from guest posting and niche edits to digital PR, 
press release distribution and AI visibility.

Every ranking on the site shows its selection criteria, the weight given to each
criterion and the evidence behind each judgement before the order of providers is
revealed. Each company receives a Provider Buyer Score from 0 to 100, calculated
from eight fixed criteria: deliverable quality and buyer fit, value for money, delivery
reliability and buyer protection, customer reviews, managed service and support,
commercial terms, reporting and transparency, and continuity and capacity. The current
[methodology](https://www.linkbuildingrankings.com/methodology/), version M1.3, 
is locked for the September 2026 publication wave with an evidence cutoff of 30 
August 2026.

The site was built by three specialists who spent their careers buying links, running
outreach and writing copy for client campaigns. It began in 2024 as a private scorecard
the team kept while purchasing links for client projects, recording which providers
delivered, which substituted sites, and whose inventory turned out to be link farms.
That scorecard became the basis for the public rankings launched in 2026.

Editorial responsibility is split three ways so that no single person marks their
own work. Founder and Editor Dominic Harland writes the ranking criteria and owns
the scoring method. Head of Provider Research Sigrid Vahter builds the evidence 
file behind every ranking from providers’ own sales pages, terms and sample inventory.
Head of Editorial Standards Amy Norbury writes and fact-checks every review, buyer
guide and correction before publication.

“We publish the criteria first, then the evidence, then the order,” said Dominic
Harland, Founder and Editor of Link Building Rankings. “If a reader disagrees with
a score, they can see exactly which judgement they disagree with and send us the
page that proves us wrong.”

The site commits publicly to four rules. No provider can pay to appear, move up 
or soften a review; inclusion is editorial. No list guarantees a result for any 
buyer’s project. Criteria, weights and evidence are published on every ranking. 
Corrections are acknowledged within five working days and answered within 20, through
a change-request form on every provider profile.

Customer reviews count towards the score only after verification against an order
reference or proof of purchase, and public Trustpilot ratings are weighted by review
count. Buyer guides are kept separate from the rankings so that editorial advice
never influences a provider’s position.

The first publication wave includes the flagship Best Link Building Services ranking,
published 31 August 2026, and sector lists covering law firms, SaaS, ecommerce, 
healthcare, real estate, travel, crypto, iGaming and other regulated or specialist
markets. Each provider profile shows the company’s Provider Buyer Score alongside
its relative position across every ranking in which it appears.

“Link buying has become a market where the same sites are resold across a dozen 
catalogues at different prices,” said Sigrid Vahter, Head of Provider Research. “
Buyers need to know how a provider actually sources placements, what protection 
they get if a link disappears, and what the minimum commitment really costs. That
is what the evidence file records for every company we list.”

Providers not yet listed can request assessment by emailing the company name and
official website. New entrants are scored under the same published methodology, 
at no charge, with no route to pay for a position.
