AI & SaaS Link Exchange
Earn verified dofollow backlinks from niche-relevant AI & SaaS sites. Credit-based — never direct swaps.
Place a link
Link to a fellow member's product from your site. Our crawler verifies it's live and dofollow.
Earn credits
Verified placements earn credits weighted by your site's DR. Higher authority, more credits.
Receive links
Spend credits to get links from other members' sites — always a third party, never a swap.
Backlinks are either expensive or exhausting
Agencies charge $100–500 per placement. Cold outreach converts at a few percent after hours of emailing. Generic link marketplaces are full of junk domains. This exchange fixes the part that's broken: finding relevant sites that actually keep their links — enforced by a crawler, not by trust.
Crawler-verified, always
Every placement is fetched and parsed by our bot: the link must be live, dofollow, and on an indexable page — not just promised.
Link-loss protection
Other platforms send you an alert when a link disappears. Here the exchange is reversed automatically: the remover loses their earnings and your spent credits come back.
DR-weighted credits
A link from a DR 60 blog earns far more credits than one from a DR 12 site. Below DR 10 earns nothing — no junk-domain farming.
Never a reciprocal link
The system blocks direct A↔B swaps at the database level. The site you link to is never the site linking back to you — the pattern Google flags simply can't happen here.

A note from the founder. I run Verified Tools — a DR 50 directory of 600+ AI & SaaS products. Makers kept asking me for backlinks, and the honest answer was that buying them is overpriced and swapping them is risky. So I built the exchange I wanted: niche-only, crawler-enforced, and structurally incapable of reciprocal linking. It's young — which means early members get the best pick of exchanges as it grows. — Yeonji
Why not just swap links?
Google's spam policies flag excessive reciprocal linking. That's why this exchange is strictly indirect: the site you link to is never the site that links back to you. Placements are editorial, verified by crawler, and monitored for removal — the safe way to build niche-relevant authority.
FAQ
How is this different from a backlink exchange?
There are no direct swaps. When you place a link to another member's site, you earn credits weighted by your domain's DR. You spend those credits to receive a link from a different member — never the one you linked to. Links stay editorial and one-directional.
How are link placements verified?
Our crawler checks every placement: the exact link must be live, dofollow, and on an indexable page. Placements are re-checked every few days — if a link is removed, the credits are automatically reversed and both parties are notified.
How are credits calculated?
Credits are weighted by the Domain Rating of the site placing the link, so a link from a DR 60 site earns more than one from a DR 15 site. Sites below DR 10 earn no credits, which keeps disposable domains out. Domain Rating by Ahrefs.
Who can join?
