Domain rating

Domain rating is a 0 to 100 score that SEO tools use to estimate the strength of a website's backlink profile compared with other sites on the web.

Domain rating is a third-party metric, scored from 0 to 100, that estimates how strong a website's link profile is. Higher numbers usually mean an older, well-known site with many links from other sites. Publishers, marketers and buyers often use it as a quick signal of a publication's size and reputation.

When you choose a press placement, domain rating helps you compare outlets at a glance. Our Starter Menu for the Guaranteed Press Hit features established outlets, most with domain ratings of 60 to 90+. It is one signal among several, alongside audience, topic fit and how recognizable the name is to your buyers.

Domain rating is not a Google metric, and a high score on the outlet does not transfer rankings to you. We sell guaranteed placements as credibility proof, not as an SEO tactic. Choose outlets your buyers recognize, then put the badge where they will see it.
