The profiles arkadium.com names for itself, in its structured data or linked from its homepage, read 09 Nov 2026. They are the accounts the site points to, not a check of who runs them. A pill opens the sites with a profile on that platform; the arrow opens the profile. Follower counts as of 09 Nov 2026. A tick: the profile's own website field names this site.

Combined followers adds each profile's count: the same person can follow on more than one platform, and YouTube rounds its figure. The donut splits it by platform, each in its brand colour. Posts and videos are all-time totals. All read from each profile page.

How to use this report

3 ways to use these figures
  • Price check. BV puts one new followed link from arkadium.com at $186 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 49% · C 47% · D 4%), for a linked site outside the gambling niche: $93 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $232 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $628 before relevance. A quote far above $232 for the link it usually gives, to a site outside the gambling niche, pays for what BV does not measure. A link from it to a site in the gambling niche is not capped: about $208, or $260 on the same topic. · Backlink value · what this means
  • Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 70 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). BV applies the high-risk niche cap: it is 15% likely a gambling site, and a link from such a site to an unrelated one is discounted. In the 10 articles we read, 0% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc. The spam score of its links is 18 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not arkadium.com's own. · How BV is worked out · what this means
  • Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 4.9M monthly visits, 26% from organic search (1.3M). Visits fell 2.4% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “free games”, about 95.9K a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's. · Traffic in detail · what this means

Is a link from arkadium.com worth placing?

That depends on the kind of link: by BV 2.9, a link from arkadium.com is worth $628 as an editorial citation (level A), $314 as a guest, sponsored or listed link (level B), $63 as a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link (level C), $31 as a network link (level D), before relevance.

At about $186 a link, arkadium.com is in the “$100 to $249” value band, with 376 of the 4,485 sites valued on mxverify. 222 sites are in a higher band.

How much traffic does arkadium.com get?

arkadium.com gets about 4.9M visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 26% of them (1.3M) come from organic search. Visits fell 2.4% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.

In short: arkadium.com draws about 4.9M visits a month, down 2.4% since Jul 2026.

Source: third-party traffic estimate, Sept 2026

Does arkadium.com pass Core Web Vitals?

No: real Chrome users see arkadium.com's largest content load in 1.6 s (LCP), and at least one vital reported for it is not at Google's good level. The figures are from the Chrome UX Report (CC BY 4.0), the 75th percentile of real visits. Core Web Vitals describe how a page feels to its visitors; BV does not use them.

In short: arkadium.com does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

Has arkadium.com been audited?

No link placed on arkadium.com has been audited yet, so this report shows no rates for how its links behave. Its backlink value comes from site-level figures (its authority rating, traffic and our reading of its articles), not from audited placements.

In short: arkadium.com's report is valued, not audited.

Read by Jev from our own reading of arkadium.com's homepage and 10 articles. No link placed here has been audited yet. It is 15% likely a gambling site, going by our reading of the site. BV 2.9 values a link from it for a buyer outside gambling: search engines discount a link from such a site to an unrelated one, so it is at most level C with that probability, as in an audit. A buyer in gambling is not capped: about $208 a link.

Searches, CPC and ad value: Google Ads, worldwide, its latest month, where it has the keyword; † third-party traffic estimates where it does not (the two often differ several times over). Ad value: what a month of the keyword's searches would cost as search ads (searches × cost per click) — what advertisers pay for it, not how hard it is to rank for. Visits (est.): the traffic estimate's own figure for the keyword on this site, which behaves like visits a month, not an amount of money. Each keyword opens the list of sites where it is a top search keyword.

Limitations: what this report does not show

2 stated plainly
  • No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
  • arkadium.com gives more than one kind of link (B 49% · C 47% · D 4%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $628 and a guest or sponsored one $314, before relevance.
