How to use this report

2 ways to use these figures
  • Price check. BV puts one new followed link from smolmaker.com at $26 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 82% · C 18%), for a linked site outside the counterfeit goods niche: $13 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $32 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $60 before relevance. A quote far above $32 for the link it usually gives, to a site outside the counterfeit goods niche, pays for what BV does not measure. A link from it to a site in the counterfeit goods niche is not capped: about $30, or $37 on the same topic. · Backlink value · what this means
  • Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 15 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). BV applies the high-risk niche cap: it is 18% likely a counterfeit-goods site, and a link from such a site to an unrelated one is discounted. 12 other publications in the directory run on its server (152.53.152.253); the footprints read there do not show one owner. The spam score of its links is 7 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not smolmaker.com's own. · How BV is worked out · what this means

A followed editorial link from smolmaker.com would be worth up to $60 under BV 2.9, before relevance: its Site Strength is 15 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level B, worth about $26 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $13 and $32.

We could not read this site's pages — it blocked our reader or did not answer — and no link placed here has been audited, so the default for a link inside an article applies. The table below shows the other levels. It is 18% likely a counterfeit-goods site, going by what traffic data reports about it: its title, description and top searches. BV 2.9 values a link from it for a buyer outside counterfeit goods: search engines discount a link from such a site to an unrelated one, so it is at most level C with that probability, as in an audit. A buyer in counterfeit goods is not capped: about $30 a link.

Its domain was registered in 2026.

12 other publications in the directory run on 152.53.152.253; the footprints read there do not show one owner. 13 publications are on the same hosting network (netcup-AS, AS197540).

Publications on the same server

Fewer than two footprints of one owner agree beyond the address itself, and shared hosting is ordinary. It is not treated as a network.

Limitations: what this report does not show

3 stated plainly
  • No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
  • A shared server address is evidence of common operation, not proof: large hosts do place unrelated sites together.
  • smolmaker.com gives more than one kind of link (B 82% · C 18%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $60 and a guest or sponsored one $30, before relevance.
