How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from boardgamegeek.com at $482 (level B): $241 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $602 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $963 before relevance. A quote far above $602 for a level B link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 80 / 100; the link it usually gives is level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). The spam score of its links is 15 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not boardgamegeek.com's own.

How boardgamegeek.com links out: the full reading
We could not read boardgamegeek.com's pages when it was valued on 10 November 2026 — the site blocked our reader or did not answer — so its link type is set by fixed rules until a later reading succeeds.
Traffic
3.6Mestimated monthly visits from organic search
Server and network
Its domain was registered in 2000.
mxverify looked up boardgamegeek.com's address: it 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.
