How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from startuplist.ing at $60 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 81% · C 19%), for a linked site outside the piracy niche: $30 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $75 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $141 before relevance. A quote far above $75 for the link it usually gives, to a site outside the piracy niche, pays for what BV does not measure. A link from it to a site in the piracy niche is not capped: about $70, or $88 on the same topic.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 35 / 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 19% likely a piracy site, and a link from such a site to an unrelated one is discounted. The spam score of its links is 14 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not startuplist.ing's own.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 4,979 monthly visits, 33% from organic search (1,620). Visits fell 16% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “go to startuplist.ing”, about 110 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.

Limitations: what this report does not show
- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- startuplist.ing gives more than one kind of link (B 81% · C 19%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $141 and a guest or sponsored one $70, before relevance.
- startuplist.ing's visits fell 16% 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.
Social profiles
The profiles startuplist.ing names for itself, in its structured data or linked from its homepage, read 29 Oct 2026. They are the accounts the site points to, not a check of who runs them. A pill opens the sites with a profile on that platform; the arrow opens the profile.
