How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from startup.info at $110 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 57% · C 40% · D 2%): $55 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $137 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $331 before relevance. A quote far above $207 for a level B link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 55 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). In the 10 articles we read, 40% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 21.8K monthly visits, 38% from organic search (8,286). Visits rose 157% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “storiesig”, about 760 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

Server and network
Its domain was registered in 2002.
mxverify looked up startup.info's address: it is served through Cloudflare (CDN), a content delivery network. Its address is shared edge infrastructure used by unrelated sites, so it cannot show who else runs on the same server, and sharing the network is no sign of a connection.
Cloudflare (CDN) fronts 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 CDN address is shared by unrelated sites, so it says nothing about ownership; no neighbours are listed for it.
- startup.info gives more than one kind of link (B 57% · C 40% · D 2%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $331 and a guest or sponsored one $165, before relevance.
