How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from openlearning.com at $205 (level B): $102 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $256 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $410 before relevance. A quote far above $256 for a level B link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 60 / 100; the link it usually gives is level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). The spam score of its links is 20 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not openlearning.com's own.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 603K monthly visits, 14% from organic search (81.9K). Visits rose 18% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “online courses”, about 8,010 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

How much traffic does openlearning.com get?
openlearning.com gets about 603K visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 14% of them (81.9K) come from organic search. Visits rose 18% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.

mxverify looked up openlearning.com's address: no other publication in the directory runs on 150.171.110.100. 3 publications are on the same hosting network (Microsoft Azure, AS8075) — a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so that is no sign of a connection.
Microsoft Azure 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.
