Relevance moves it: $11 to an unrelated site, $28 to a same-topic site. In short: a link from games.co.uk is worth about $23 to rankings, up to $28 on the same topic. Source: [mxverify BV 2.9 methodology](https://mxverify.uk/methodology) ### Is a link from games.co.uk worth placing?

A price far above $27 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 games.co.uk's BV compare with other sites? At about $23 a link, games.co.uk is in the “$10 to $49” value band, with 1,058 of the 4,052 sites valued on mxverify. 841 sites are in a higher band.

Visits rose 26% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. In short: games.co.uk draws about 129.9K visits a month, up 26% since Jul 2026. Source: [third-party traffic estimate, Sept 2026](https://mxverify.uk/publications/games.co.uk#evidence) ### Does games.co.uk pass Core Web Vitals? No: real Chrome users see games.co.uk's largest content load in 3.1 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: games.co.uk does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

No link placed on games.co.uk 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: games.co.uk's report is valued, not audited.

Third-party traffic estimates. BV uses only the organic-search figure. Server and network a CDN edge, shared by unrelated sites Its domain was registered in 1996. mxverify looked up games.co.uk'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. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.
