Backlink Value Calculator

No. Real backlink prices vary enormously by niche, the linking site's actual authority and traffic, and the marketplace or negotiation involved. This calculator uses a fixed illustrative formula (links × domain authority × trust ratio × a flat multiplier) invented purely for comparing scenarios side by side — it doesn't reflect any real pricing data.

Use it to compare relative scenarios — e.g. is 10 links from DA 40 sites 'worth more' by this formula than 3 links from DA 80 sites — rather than as a number to quote in a real link-buying negotiation.

Pull an actual DA/DR/Authority Score from Moz, Ahrefs, or Semrush rather than using this app's own illustrative Domain Authority Estimator, since that tool's score is also a name-based heuristic, not a real authority figure.

It's a percentage you assign yourself reflecting how much you trust the link source's quality (defaults to 50% if left blank) — it's not pulled from any real trust-metric database, it's a multiplier you set to weight the estimate.
