A link from indie.deals, by link type

The same site is worth very different amounts depending on the link it gives you. This is what each level is worth here.

4 other publications in the directory run on 216.198.79.1, which is common on shared hosting and not by itself evidence of common ownership. 472 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.

• No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
• A link that is followed is not necessarily a link search engines value; this record does not measure rankings or traffic.
• The BV score is what one new followed link from indie.deals is worth to rankings, from its Site Strength and the kind of link on offer. It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times.
• Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
• indie.deals gives more than one kind of link (B 93% · C 7%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $216 and a guest or sponsored one $108, before relevance.
