## Backlink value

[BV **$773** per link · level A · nofollow · strength 90](https://bklink.uk/methodology#bv)

A followed editorial link from yahoo.com would be worth up to $1,477 under BV 2.4, before relevance: its Site Strength is 90 out of 100. The link it usually gives is level A (an editorial citation), but 53% of its links are nofollow, so it is worth about $773 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $387 and $967.

- **Site Strength**: **90** / 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: estimated monthly organic visits, TabAPI, 26 September 2026.
- **Worth up to**: $1,477 · 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 A — counted · **nofollow** on 53% of its links → ×0.52 yahoo.com's pages are news articles, so a link there is an editorial citation, level A; 53% of the links its articles make to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc, and BV caps that share of a new link at C.
- **Relevance to your site**: ×1 · neutral here; in an audit it runs from ×0.5 (unrelated) to ×1.25 (same topic)
- **BV score**: **$773** per link
- **Domain registered**: 18 January 1995 · shown for context; BV does not price on age

### A link from yahoo.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 · nofollow here | An editorial citation: the site linked because it is useful to its readers. | ×1 | $1,477 |
| B — May be discounted | A guest, sponsored or placed article, or a product or tool directory listing. | ×0.5 | $739 |
| C — Usually neutralised | A press release or syndicated copy, a forum post, profile, footer or sidebar link — and any nofollow link. | ×0.1 | $148 |
| D — Network | A site on a server whose sites show footprints of one owner, a link farm, or machine-generated pages. | ×0.05 | $74 |

53% of yahoo.com's links are nofollow, so a new link from it — an editorial citation — is priced at ×0.52: $773, where a followed one would be worth $1,477. BV prices the ranking value a link passes, and a nofollow link passes little.

## How yahoo.com links out

Read by mxverify on 26 September 2026: the homepage and 9 articles (9 from across its sitemap, 1 linked from its homepage). This is our own reading of the site, not a vendor's figure, and it is what places a new link on the A–D scale until links bought here are audited.

Strong sample 34 links to other sites across 9 articles published in Sept 2026. Strong takes six or more articles and thirty or more links, spread over at least two months where the articles are dated.

**Links its articles make to other sites**

- Followed 47%
- Nofollow 53%
- Sponsored 0%
- User-generated (ugc) 0%

34 links to other sites across 9 articles, share buttons left out. BV counts 53% of a new link's weight at most C, because that share of the site's own links is nofollow, sponsored or ugc.

**What its homepage offers**

- **Advertising** · “Advertise”

Runs on Next.js.

Jev reads it as a publication (59%), major as a source (62%), and not selling guest, sponsored or paid posts (56%).

## 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 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 yahoo.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.
