SERPsGrowth: what it charges and what it requires

The facts on record

Covers more link types than any other entry here — proactive and reactive digital PR, guest posts, niche edits, listicle placements, journalist outreach, brand mentions, plus white label and multilingual work. Serves SaaS alongside healthcare, legal, real estate and iGaming, so it is a generalist rather than a SaaS specialist. Names Fabrico, Brosix, Dreamix and Screen-Rec as clients, and publishes self-reported figures of 50,000+ backlinks built, 94% client retention and 3.2x average traffic growth. Notably states it cannot guarantee specific rankings, 'no one ethically can' — guaranteed rankings is one of the clearest warning signs in this market, so declining to offer them is worth recording.

What it costs, in market context

SERPsGrowth does not publish rates. This is the norm rather than the exception, and the usual explanation is sound — per-link costs vary from $141 to over $1,500 depending on the target site's authority and your category. It does mean you need the market bands in hand before the call, because there is nothing else to judge the quote against.

Who it fits

On the public record, SERPsGrowth suits buyers who want several tactics from one supplier, or agencies buying white label.

We are describing fit, not quality. We have not run a procurement process against SERPsGrowth or any other agency here, so we publish no score — a number we could not defend would look like evidence while being nothing of the kind. Use the fit description as a filter and test the rest yourself.

What to ask them

Ask every shortlisted agency the same questions in the same order, so the answers are comparable. The full list of eleven is worth taking into the call; these four matter most here:

1. What proportion of placements involve a payment to the publisher?
2. What disqualifies a site from a campaign — the actual written criteria?
3. What happens when a link goes dead, and for how long does that apply?
4. What is your cost per link, and what is included in that number?

Market context

For reference when you evaluate any quote: the market average for one high-quality backlink is $508.95, up 45% from $350 in 2022, and 80.9% of SEOs expect prices to keep rising through 2027. Across the market, 46.5% of buyers spend $5,000–$10,000 a month and 18% spend more than $10,000.

One further figure worth carrying into any conversation: Ahrefs found that 66.5% of links built between 2013 and 2024 are now dead. Whatever you pay per link, what you actually own is the proportion still live in two years — which is why the replacement policy matters more than the headline rate.
