# Site report: wane.com

Audited by bklink.uk

bklink.uk has checked 1 link placed on wane.com, most recently on 20 September 2026: whether each is still on the page, followed or nofollow, in the article or tucked in a footer, and whether it stayed there.

**Why it matters.** A site's own word says what a link should be; an audit shows what it is. The figures under [How its links behaved](https://mxverify.uk/publications/wane.com#links) come from those checks, not from estimates, and each new audit adds to them.

The tick marks audited links. It is not an endorsement of wane.com, or a check of who runs it.

We have audited 1 placed link on wane.com — too few to state rates. It is served through Fastly (CDN), a content delivery network, so its address is shared edge infrastructure and says nothing about who runs it. Its domain was registered in 1995.

## Backlink value

[BV **$314** per link · level B · strength 70](https://bklink.uk/methodology?utm_source=mxverify.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=site-report#bv)

A followed editorial link from wane.com would be worth up to $628 under BV 2.5, before relevance: its Site Strength is 70 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level B, worth about $314 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $157 and $393.

- **Site Strength**: **70** / 100, in steps of 5 · half the site's authority rating, half its organic traffic on a log scale; 100 is the strongest site on the web. Traffic: 1.4M estimated monthly organic visits, DataForSEO, as of 14 August 2026.
- **Worth up to**: $628 · a followed editorial link at this strength, before relevance (×0.5 unrelated to ×1.25 same topic) — see [how it is calculated](https://mxverify.uk/backlink-value#how)
- **Usual link type**: Level B — may be discounted → ×0.5 This site has not been read yet and none of the links audited here has a link type on record, so the default for a link inside an article applies. Checking the site reads it. The table below shows the other levels.
- **Relevance to your site**: ×1 · neutral here; in an audit it runs from ×0.5 (unrelated) to ×1.25 (same topic)
- **BV score**: **$314** per link
- **Domain registered**: 11 October 1995 · shown for context; BV does not price on age

### A link from wane.com, by link type

The same site is worth very different amounts depending on the link it gives you. This is what each level is worth here.

| Level | What it is | Factor | Value |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| A — Counted | An editorial citation: the site linked because it is useful to its readers. | ×1 | $628 |
| B — May be discounted | A guest, sponsored or placed article, or a product or tool directory listing. | ×0.5 | $314 |
| C — Usually neutralised | A press release or syndicated copy, a forum post, profile, footer or sidebar link — and any nofollow link. | ×0.1 | $63 |
| D — Network | A site on a server whose sites show footprints of one owner, a link farm, or machine-generated pages. | ×0.05 | $31 |

## How its links behaved

- **1** links audited
- **1** pages we could not read

Fewer than 3 readable audited links — too few for percentages to mean anything.

Latest audit 20 September 2026. Each link counts once, at its most recent audit.

## Hosting

- **Server address**: 151.101.193.91 · CDN edge, shared by unrelated sites
- **Hosting network**: Fastly (CDN) · AS54113
- **Server country**: US
- **Domain registered**: [11 October 1995](https://mxverify.uk/publications/registered/1990s)

## Server and network

wane.com is served through Fastly (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.

- **CDN** edge address, not a server
- **68** on the same hosting network

Fastly (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

- Only 1 link has been audited here — a sample too small to describe the publication as a whole.
- 1 audited page could not be read and is left out of the rates rather than guessed.
- 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 wane.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.
