How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from polar.sh at $189 (level C), priced on a blend of link types (A 10% · B 29% · C 62%): $95 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $237 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $628 before relevance. A quote far above $79 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 70 / 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, 0% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc. The spam score of its links is 3 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not polar.sh's own.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Aug 2026 estimate: 919.5K monthly visits, 6.9% from organic search (63.7K). Visits rose 8.3% from Jun 2026 to Aug 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “polar”, about 15.9K a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.
How BV is worked out
A followed editorial link from polar.sh would be worth up to $628 under BV 2.7, before relevance: its Site Strength is 70 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level C, worth about $189 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $95 and $237.

Server and network
1 other publication in the directory runs on 216.150.1.1, which is common on shared hosting and not by itself evidence of common ownership. 453 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.
Other publications on 216.150.1.1
At this size that is ordinary shared hosting, listed for completeness, not as a finding.
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.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- 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 polar.sh 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.
