How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts a new link from alternativeto.net at $142 (level B · nofollow): $71 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $178 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed one would be worth $314 before relevance. A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $628 before relevance. A quote far above $393 for a followed level B link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 70 / 100; the link it usually gives is level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link), with nofollow on 63% of its links (in the 10 articles we read).
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Aug 2026 estimate: 2.3M monthly visits, 49% from organic search (1.1M). Visits rose 16% from Jun 2026 to Aug 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “ext torrent”, about 11.8K a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.
How BV is worked out
A followed editorial link from alternativeto.net would be worth up to $628 under BV 2.7, before relevance: its Site Strength is 70 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level B (a guest, sponsored or listed link), but 63% of its links are nofollow, so it is worth about $142 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $71 and $178.

A link from alternativeto.net, by link type
The same site is worth very different amounts depending on the link it gives you. This is what each level is worth here.
| Level | What it is | Factor | Value |

| B — May be discounted | A guest, sponsored or placed article, or a product or tool directory listing. | ×0.5 | $314 |
| C — Usually neutralised | A press release or syndicated copy, a forum post, profile, footer or sidebar link — and any nofollow link. | ×0.1 | $63 |
| D — Network | A site on a server whose sites show footprints of one owner, a link farm, or machine-generated pages. | ×0.05 | $31 |
How alternativeto.net links out: the full reading
Read by mxverify on 1 October 2026: the homepage and 10 articles (4 from its feed, 6 from across its sitemap). This is our own reading of the site, not a vendor's figure, and it is what places a new link on the A–D scale until links placed here are audited.
Fair sample
Articles read
Jev, the model that judges every link in a bklink audit, reads these pages as a site whose links are mostly level A — A 49%, B 41%, C 10%, D 0%. Put together with what kind of site it is, how established it is, whether it sells placements and how it links out, a new link here is priced as A 0.5%, B 30%, C 69%, D 0%.

Server and network
alternativeto.net is served through Cloudflare (CDN), a content delivery network. Its address is shared edge infrastructure used by unrelated sites, so it cannot show who else runs on the same server, and sharing the network is no sign of a connection.
Cloudflare (CDN) fronts millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- A CDN address is shared by unrelated sites, so it says nothing about ownership; no neighbours are listed for it.
- A link that is followed is not necessarily a link search engines value; this record does not measure rankings or traffic.
- The BV score is what one new followed link from alternativeto.net is worth to rankings, from its Site Strength and the kind of link on offer. It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times.
- Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
