How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from startupstash.com at $175 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 82% · C 18%): $88 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $219 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 mostly level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). In the 6 articles we read, 0% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 121.5K monthly visits, 48% from organic search (58.9K). Visits fell 14% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “memento time travel”, about 1,960 a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.
- AI assistant visits. 2.7% of its visits in Sept 2026 came from AI assistants' answers, about 3,232 (visits, not citations); ChatGPT sent the most in Sept 2026, 90% of them. The split moved a lot between months (ChatGPT from 40% in Aug 2026 to 90% in Sept 2026): read it as a snapshot, not a trend.

How much traffic does startupstash.com get?
startupstash.com gets about 121.5K visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 48% of them (58.9K) come from organic search. Visits fell 14% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.
In short: startupstash.com draws about 121.5K visits a month, down 14% since Jul 2026.
Does startupstash.com pass Core Web Vitals?
No: real Chrome users see startupstash.com's largest content load in 2.5 s (LCP), and at least one vital reported for it is not at Google's good level. The figures are from the Chrome UX Report (CC BY 4.0), the 75th percentile of real visits. Core Web Vitals describe how a page feels to its visitors; BV does not use them.
In short: startupstash.com does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

Server and network
startupstash.com 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.
- 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 startupstash.com 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.
- startupstash.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 $410 and a guest or sponsored one $205, before relevance.
- startupstash.com's visits fell 14% 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.
