🇰🇷 Buy Backlinks in South Korea: Pricing Guide

To research the South Korean link-building market, we analyzed 1.4M offers for 322K websites from 25 of the largest guest posting marketplaces and major link sellers worldwide.

From this data, we identified 24,511 offers for 5,342 websites that we classify as South Korean backlink inventory.

Then we looked deeper into publisher details and their offers to understand the inventory breakdown, publisher price ranges, real examples of offerings, and the guest posting marketplaces with the strongest selection of South Korean backlinks.

Let's dive in.

What counts as a South Korean backlink?

We categorize South Korean backlink inventory into two tiers: Core South Korean publishers with strong local signals, and Extended inventory with meaningful South Korean traffic.

Core South Korean inventory (907 publishers)

These are publishers with the strongest South Korean relevance signals:

• 43 websites with a .kr domain
• 397 websites where South Korea is their #1 source of organic search traffic
• 579 websites where South Korea is their #1 source of total traffic

Some examples of .kr inventory publishers and their SEO metrics:

Extended inventory (4,435 additional publishers)

Beyond the core inventory, we identified 4,435 additional publishers that receive at least 1,000 visitors per month from South Korea, based on Semrush data. These sites may not be South Korea-focused, but they deliver meaningful South Korean traffic. A few examples:

Domain extension (.kr) and primary traffic source matter less than you might think. What actually drives backlink value is:

• Topical relevance to your website
• Absolute South Korean traffic (not percentage)

A high-authority tech blog from India with 5,000 South Korean visitors/month will often outperform a low-quality .kr site with 500 visitors in backlink value and usually costs less. The link equity flows to South Korean users regardless of where the publisher is based.

Total inventory: 5,342 publishers

Many domains qualify under more than one category. For example, a .kr domain may also rank as South Korea's top organic traffic source.

This inventory size ranks South Korea #49 in the global guest posting market.

South Korean backlinks prices

Core South Korean inventory has median guest posting price of $60 and an average of $153.

Here's a distribution of the inventory size, price ranges and median traffic you can expect from the typical South Korean publisher website in each pricing category:

Where to buy South Korean backlinks

We aggregate data from 25 major backlink marketplaces worldwide, making it easy to identify platforms with the largest inventory for any country.

For South Korea, the top three are prnews.io (2,260 domains), bazoom.com (2,078 domains), and adsy.com (1,976 domains).

However, many South Korean publishers are exclusive to exact marketplaces.

When we deduplicate across all three, the combined unique inventory is 3,966 domains - meaning 38% of publishers are exclusive to a single marketplace.

To maximize your options and get the best prices, you'd need accounts on all three platforms.

Alternatively, FatGrid provides access to inventory from all 25 marketplaces through a single account.

We handle the complexity of managing multiple platforms and offer a full refund guarantee - if a placement fails, you get 100% of your money back to your original payment method, not marketplace credits.

This matters because many platforms only refund to their internal balance or charge refund fees, effectively locking your funds.
