How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from merchantcircle.com at $73 (level C), priced on a blend of link types (B 13% · C 75% · D 13%): $37 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $92 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $507 before relevance. A quote far above $63 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 65 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level C — usually neutralised (a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link). In the 5 articles we read, 50% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 1.3M monthly visits, 4.1% from organic search (51.8K). Visits fell 20% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “merchantcircle”, about 4,700 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

How much traffic does merchantcircle.com get?
merchantcircle.com gets about 1.3M visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 4.1% of them (51.8K) come from organic search. Visits fell 20% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.
In short: merchantcircle.com draws about 1.3M visits a month, down 20% since Jul 2026.
Does merchantcircle.com pass Core Web Vitals?
No: real Chrome users see merchantcircle.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: merchantcircle.com does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

In short: about 50% of merchantcircle.com's outbound links are nofollow, so a new link placed there may be too.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- merchantcircle.com gives more than one kind of link (B 13% · C 75% · D 13%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $507 and a guest or sponsored one $254, before relevance.
- merchantcircle.com's visits fell 20% 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.
