How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from directory-free.com at $14 (level C), priced on a blend of link types (B 9% · C 75% · D 16%): $7.24 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $18 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $114 before relevance. A quote far above $14 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 30 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level C — usually neutralised (a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link). In the 10 articles we read, 12% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 9,822 monthly visits, 6.2% from organic search (609). Visits fell 25% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “frre directory”, about 70 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- directory-free.com gives more than one kind of link (B 9% · C 75% · D 16%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $114 and a guest or sponsored one $57, before relevance.
- directory-free.com's visits fell 25% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Half of Site Strength is organic search traffic, so a fall that lasts lowers BV when the figure is next read.
