How much do niche edits cost on this desk?
English niche edits start at $99 and sit about 20% under the matching guest-post row on the public pricing card. You buy a contextual insert on an already-live, already-indexed page — not a new article. That is why the row is cheaper. The host still has to pass DataForSEO. The editor still has to accept the sentence.
The published English insertion bands are $99 (DR20+), $140 (DR30+), $160 (DR40+, the popular insert band), $220 (DR50+), and $280 (DR70+). International niche edits start at $140 and run $195 / $230 / $310 / $395 because outreach is native-language. Those numbers live on niche edits and the pricing page. They are not a portal checkout. There is no English NE SKU next to a guest-post SKU.
A quote is how you buy. Send the destination URL, language, and any page class you will not accept. We come back with hosts that actually have a relevant indexed article, not a “from $99” bait-and-switch onto a resources dump. If you already know you want a new editorial URL instead, that is a guest post — $125 to $450 English, orderable in the portal or quoted.
Why is a niche edit cheaper than the matching guest post?
You are not paying for a full article. A guest post includes outreach, a unique draft written for that host, editorial revisions, and a brand-new URL. A niche edit includes outreach, a short contextual sentence, and an insert on a page that already exists. The writing cycle is the expensive part of the guest-post row. Take it out and the matching DR band drops about 20%.
Cheaper is not a quality discount. The host still has to look like a publication. Organic traffic still has to exist. The outbound profile still cannot look like a storefront. We will not insert your URL into a footer, an author bio of affiliates, or a “resources” page with two hundred outbound links. That inventory is cheap everywhere because it is junk. It is not on this card.
The popular English insert is DR40+ at $160. The popular English guest post is DR40+ at $250. Those two numbers are the honest comparison most buyers need. If someone is selling you a “DR70 niche edit” for $40, they are not beating our table. They are selling a different object.
Can I order a niche edit in the client portal?
No. Niche edits are quote-only on this site. Packaged English guest posts have live SKUs — DR20+ $125 through DR70+ $450. Insertions do not. Do not treat a guest-post checkout as a niche-edit order. If you pay for a guest post, you get a new article. If you want an insert, use the quote form set to Niche Edits.
That split is deliberate. A guest-post band can be packaged because we control the draft cycle. An insert depends on whether a relevant indexed page already exists and whether that editor will add a sentence. We will not put a self-serve SKU on a product we cannot honestly guarantee as a cart row. Typical TAT is still about two weeks, 20-day maximum on standard DR work, replacement if the publisher reverts the edit.
Agencies that resell insertions pay the same public rates. White-label does not add a SKU and does not turn a quote-only product into a portal product. The monthly agency package ($1,500, SKU 2R60XR) is a scoped monthly desk, not a pile of cheap inserts and not a way to skip the quote.
What is included in the published niche-edit rate?
A contextual sentence on an already-live, already-indexed page. 100% manual outreach to the webmaster or editor. DataForSEO before the host is approved. A live-URL report with DR, traffic, and the exact anchor — Ahrefs and Semrush as metrics, not as clients. Indexing submitted and reported. A replacement on a comparable indexed page if the publisher rolls the edit back. No monthly minimum.
You approve the class of page before we insert: DR band, traffic band, language, topical fit. Named URLs land on the delivery report after go-live. We do not sell a mystery insert on a host you have never opened. We also do not create a new post last week and call it a niche edit. That is a guest post in a cheap costume.
Content on an insert is a sentence that belongs, not a 1,200-word essay. If the only way to mention you is to bolt a paragraph that reads like an advert onto a how-to from 2019, we walk away and find another page — or we tell you the mechanic is wrong and you want a guest post instead.
How do international, iGaming, and hard-niche inserts get priced?
International niche edits start at $140 for DR20+ because the pitch and the sentence are native-language. A Japanese or German ranking URL usually needs an insert on a local-language page that already ranks, not an English sentence on a .jp domain. The international guest-post table starts at $175; the insert row stays about 20% under. See international guest posts if the money page is not English.
Casino, sportsbook, and broader iGaming inserts are not the $99 English NE row. Those briefs use the iGaming desk. English iGaming guest-post bands run $180–$550 and are quote-only. Do not hide a sportsbook inside a lifestyle roundup and expect the general NE card. Adult, CBD, and crypto stay Enquire Now. Wikipedia and directories are also enquire-only. A general English NE at $99 is not a licence to slip a hard niche onto a publisher who never agreed to it.
Digital PR is not an insert with a press headline. If you need a newsroom citation, that is quoted on digital PR — no public Worldwide Backlinks digital-PR dollar figure. If you need volume of contributed articles, stay on the guest-post table. If you need a sentence on a page Google already knows, stay here and quote the insert.
When is the extra guest-post spend the better buy?
Buy the guest post when no relevant indexed page exists, when you need a new editorial URL, or when the destination is a new category that hosts have not covered. A niche edit cannot invent a topic the publication never published. It can only borrow a page that already did the work.
Buy the insert when a strong, trafficked article already sits in the right neighbourhood — a tools roundup, a resource list, an older how-to that still collects clicks. That is when “about 20% under” is a real saving rather than a downgrade. Mixing both on one campaign is normal. The quote should say which URL wants which mechanic. “Just get us links” is how you get the wrong product.
If you are unsure, send the destination URLs. We will say which mechanic fits. Niche edits stay on the quote form. Packaged English guest posts can be ordered now or quoted — both paths stay visible on those pages. Read guest posts vs niche edits if you want the mechanic comparison rather than the price card.
What does a niche-edit quote actually need to include?
Destination URL, language, and the page class you will accept: DR band, traffic band, topical neighbourhood, and named exclusions. Preferred anchors or a request for a branded mix. Any publisher you have already used, so we do not double-place. If the money page is casino, adult, CBD, or crypto, say so in the first sentence. A general $99 insert brief that hides a sportsbook wastes a day and then gets declined.
We reply within 24 hours with whether an insert is even the right mechanic. Sometimes the honest answer is that no relevant indexed page exists and you want a guest post at $125–$450 instead. Sometimes the honest answer is a mixed quote: inserts on the old roundups, new articles on the category pages that have never been written about on that class of site. The quote will list which URL gets which product. It will not say “links.”
Reports after go-live still include the live URL, target, exact anchor, followed or sponsored, and status. Indexing is submitted. If the publisher reverts the sentence, we replace it on a comparable indexed page. Founded 2022, Richmond Australia, teams in Singapore and the Philippines, 10,000+ placements, 15+ languages, 100% manual. Those facts describe the desk that prices the insert. They are not a reason the $99 row is a cart SKU. It is not. Quote Niche Edits.
How does niche-edit price sit next to the guest-post row?
Published USD cards only. Niche edits are quote-only. English guest posts can be quoted or ordered.

Common questions
How much do niche edits cost?
English from $99, about 20% under the matching guest-post row: $99 / $140 / $160 / $220 / $280. International from $140. Quote-only — there is no English NE SKU.
Why is there no portal checkout for niche edits?
An insert depends on a relevant indexed page and an editor who will add a sentence. That is not a self-serve cart row. Guest posts have SKUs. Insertions do not.
Is a $99 niche edit lower quality than a $125 guest post?
No. It is a different mechanic. You are not paying for a new article. The host still has to pass DataForSEO QC and the editor still has to accept the insert.
Can I use the English NE card for casino or CBD?
No. Casino uses the iGaming desk from $180. Adult, CBD, crypto, Wikipedia, and directories stay Enquire Now. A $99 insert is not a loophole.
What is included at these prices?
Contextual insert, manual outreach, DataForSEO QC, live URL plus DR / traffic / anchor, indexing reported, replacement if the edit is reverted. No monthly minimum.
How fast is a niche edit versus a guest post?
Both share the same operations ceiling: typically about two weeks, 20-day maximum on standard DR work. Inserts usually use more of the early part of that window because the page already exists.
Do agencies pay a different niche-edit rate?
No. White-label uses the same public USD card. Reports can omit our brand. The product stays quote-only.
