Sources: link counts and spam score from a third-party backlink index, read 01 November 2026; the chart grows by one reading a month; page count and pages from a Google site: search, 01 November 2026. BV prices on one of these only, the page count: when two site: searches at least 7 days apart both find no pages, and nothing on record shows Google indexing the site, a link from it is priced at most level C.

## Links placed here

No link placed on design.com has been audited yet. [An audit on bklink.uk](https://bklink.uk/?utm_source=mxverify.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=site-report) checks each one — still there, followed or not, where it sits — and marks this report audited.

This report's link to design.com is nofollow. It is followed when the site's owner audits design.com's own backlinks on bklink.uk, chooses to publish it and proves the site is theirs (for 90 days from each audit), or once a one-time payment of $9 is made for it.

The profiles design.com names for itself, in its structured data or linked from its homepage, read 01 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 01 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. On since is the year the account began. Posts and videos are all-time totals. A badge is the platform's own mark, not a check by us. All read from each profile page.

- **Price check.** BV puts one new followed link from design.com at $125 (level C), priced on a blend of link types (B 15% · C 80% · D 5%): $62 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $156 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $778 before relevance.

- **Qualification and risk.** Its Site Strength is 75 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level C — usually neutralised (a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link).

Quick answers about design.com 8 questions answered

### What is a link from design.com worth?

BV, mxverify's backlink value, is an estimate of what one new followed link from a site is worth to rankings: by BV 2.9, a new followed link from design.com is worth about $125 (level C). Relevance moves it: $62 to an unrelated site, $156 to a same-topic site.

In short: a link from design.com is worth about $125 to rankings, up to $156 on the same topic.

Source: [mxverify BV 2.9 methodology](https://mxverify.uk/methodology)

### Is a link from design.com worth placing?

That depends on the kind of link: by BV 2.9, a link from design.com is worth $778 as an editorial citation (level A), $389 as a guest, sponsored or listed link (level B), $78 as a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link (level C), $39 as a network link (level D), before relevance. A price far above $97 for a level C link pays for something BV does not measure, such as the site's own readers.

Source: [mxverify BV 2.9 methodology](https://mxverify.uk/methodology)

### How does design.com's BV compare with other sites?

At about $125 a link, design.com is in the “$100 to $249” value band, with 307 of the 4,018 sites valued on mxverify. 176 sites are in a higher band.

In short: 176 of the 4,018 valued sites sit in a higher value band than design.com.

Source: mxverify's own directory, counted at the last daily update

### How much traffic does design.com get?

design.com gets about 4M visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 30% of them (1.2M) come from organic search. Visits fell 8.0% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.

In short: design.com draws about 4M visits a month, down 8.0% since Jul 2026.

Source: [third-party traffic estimate, Sept 2026](https://mxverify.uk/publications/design.com#evidence)

### Does design.com pass Core Web Vitals?

No: real Chrome users see design.com's largest content load in 2.4 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: design.com does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

Source: [third-party backlink index, Nov 2026](https://mxverify.uk/publications/design.com#evidence)

### Has design.com been audited?

No link placed on design.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: design.com's report is valued, not audited.

Jev, the model that judges every link in a bklink audit, reads these pages as a site whose links are mostly level **A** — A 62%, B 14%, C 23%, D 1.0%. 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 0.4%, B 15%, C 80%, D 5.2%.

Jev reads it as a service or app (65%), small or niche as a source (49%), and not selling guest, sponsored or paid posts (98%).

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.

mxverify looked up design.com's address: no other publication in the directory runs on 13.32.121.79. 478 publications are on the same hosting network (Amazon AWS, AS16509) — a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so that is no sign of a connection.

Amazon AWS is a cloud platform hosting 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 2 stated plainly

- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- design.com gives more than one kind of link (B 15% · C 80% · D 5%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $778 and a guest or sponsored one $389, before relevance.
