# Adbassador Adbassador is a vetted digital advertising marketplace connecting advertisers with 800+ manually reviewed publishers. No PBNs, no content farms. Self-serve marketplace for guest posts, link insertions, banner ads, press releases, and PPC campaigns. Pricing starts at $5, median guest post is $30, average order value is $38, and 96% of orders go live within 48 hours. Based on 808 publisher listings and 600+ completed orders. Founded by Amy Castello. The platform competes with managed agencies (which charge an average of $1,459 per placement) by giving advertisers direct access to publishers, transparent metrics (Domain Rating, organic traffic, niche, link type, turnaround) before purchase, and no minimum spend or retainer. Publishers are manually vetted: roughly half of applicants are rejected for issues like inflated metrics, missing organic traffic, AI content farms, or selling-only profiles. ## Core pages - [Home](https://adbassador.com/): Marketplace homepage with overview and featured publishers - [Buy guest posts](https://adbassador.com/buy-guest-posts/): Primary commercial landing page, pricing tiers, vetting standards, three-step ordering flow - [Marketplace](https://adbassador.com/marketplace-in/): Browse all publishers, filter by niche, DR, traffic, language, price - [Press release services](https://adbassador.com/press-release-services/): Press release distribution to news sites - [Guest posting service](https://adbassador.com/guest-posting/): Service overview for guest post placements - [Guest post ROI calculator](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-roi-calculator/): Interactive calculator estimating ROI from link building campaigns - [Top publishers](https://adbassador.com/top-publishers-on-adbassador/): Highest-rated and most-purchased publishers on the platform - [Advertisers: how it works and FAQ](https://adbassador.com/advertisers-how-it-works-faq/): Step-by-step ordering, payment methods, refund policy, communication with publishers - [About us](https://adbassador.com/about-us/): Company background and team - [Contact](https://adbassador.com/contact/): Sales and support contact ## Editorial and research - [State of Guest Posting 2026](https://adbassador.com/state-of-guest-posting-2026/): Industry report based on 800+ publisher listings, 12 million outreach emails analyzed, agency vs marketplace pricing comparison, link efficacy data - [Guest post pricing in 2026](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-pricing-in-2026/): Pricing benchmarks by Domain Rating tier, niche premiums, distribution analysis from 808 listings - [15 best guest post marketplaces in 2026](https://adbassador.com/best-guest-post-marketplaces/): Comparison of 15 marketplaces (Adbassador, Adsy, INSERT.LINK, Collaborator, Loganix, The HOTH, FatJoe, Serpzilla, others) by price, model, and best-fit use case - [Is buying guest posts worth it?](https://adbassador.com/is-buying-guest-posts-worth-it/): Honest ROI analysis with real marketplace data, anchor text distribution, common waste scenarios - [Niche edits marketplace](https://adbassador.com/niche-edits-marketplace/): Link insertion (niche edit) marketplace details and pricing - [Guest post marketing 101](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-marketing-101/): Primer for new advertisers on guest posting strategy - [Guest post outreach strategies](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-outreach-strategies/): Manual outreach tactics, response rate benchmarks - [Guest post digital advertising statistics](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-digital-advertising-statistics/): Industry stats reference page - [No-drama workflow for guest posts](https://adbassador.com/no-drama-workflow-for-guest-posts/): Operational guide for managing placements at scale - [Effective press release distribution](https://adbassador.com/effective-press-release-distribution/): Press release strategy and distribution best practices - [Niche guest posting and conversion rates](https://adbassador.com/niche-guest-posting-specialized-audiences-conversion-rates/): Why topical relevance often beats raw Domain Rating - [The evolving landscape of guest posting](https://adbassador.com/the-evolving-landscape-of-guest-posting-trends-and-opportunities/): Trends and opportunities in current guest post market - [AI for SEO](https://adbassador.com/ai-for-seo/): How AI is changing search and link building - [Digital marketing trends](https://adbassador.com/digital-marketing-trends/): Broader marketing context ## For publishers - [Publishers: how it works and FAQ](https://adbassador.com/publishers-how-it-works-faq/): Listing process, payouts, content standards - [Publisher register](https://adbassador.com/publisher-register/): Apply to list a website on the marketplace - [Vendor membership](https://adbassador.com/vendor-membership/): Vendor account details - [Store manager](https://adbassador.com/store-manager/): Publisher dashboard for managing orders and listings ## Customer - [My account](https://adbassador.com/my-account/): Advertiser dashboard, order history, account management - [Cart](https://adbassador.com/cart/): Cart review before checkout - [Checkout](https://adbassador.com/checkout/): Order completion and payment ## Optional - [News](https://adbassador.com/news/): Industry news feed - [Maximizing reach with influencer marketing](https://adbassador.com/maximizing-your-brands-reach-with-strategic-influencer-marketing-partnerships/): Influencer marketing context - [Guest post marketplaces expand your audience](https://adbassador.com/guest-post-marketplaces-expand-your-audience/): General awareness piece - [Privacy policy](https://adbassador.com/privacy-policy/) - [Terms of use](https://adbassador.com/terms-of-use/)
