Markwood lets you choose guest post sites yourself. You set your budget, filter by DA, DR, organic traffic, niche and country, add the sites you like to your order, and send a request. We confirm the sites, you pay by PayPal, bank transfer or USDT, approve the article, and get a live link report.

Most guest post sellers hand you a package and a promise. You rarely see which sites you’re paying for until the money is gone. Markwood works the other way round: every publisher site, its metrics and its final price are on the page before you order.

This guide walks through the whole process, from opening the site list to receiving your live links. If you want to follow along, open the All Sites page in another tab.

What Is Markwood?

Markwood is a guest post agency with an open site list. Instead of fixed bundles, you build your own order from thousands of publisher websites.

  • Open listings: each site shows DA (Moz), DR (Ahrefs), monthly organic traffic, niche, link type and delivery time.
  • Final prices: the price you see includes the article. No extra fees appear later.
  • Your budget, your rules: filters only show what fits your numbers.
  • Pay after confirmation: we check every site is available before you pay anything.
Hamza runs an online furniture store in Manchester. He set a $300 budget, chose “Home” as the niche, a minimum DR of 30 and at least 5K monthly traffic. The list dropped from thousands of sites to a short, relevant shortlist, and he picked four sites in under ten minutes.

Decide two numbers before you open the site list: your total budget and the minimum monthly traffic a site must have. Those two filters do most of the hard work for you.

How to Find the Right Sites

Set your total budget

Move the budget slider to the amount you want to spend. As you add sites, the bar shows how much is used and how much is left. Sites that would take you over budget are marked so you don’t overspend by accident.

Choose minimum DA and DR

DA and DR both measure a site’s backlink strength. Set a minimum for each. A good starting point for most small businesses is DR 30 or higher, then raise it for competitive keywords.

Set minimum organic traffic

Traffic tells you whether real people visit the site. A site with good DA but almost no visitors is usually a weaker choice than a smaller site with steady readers.

Pick a niche and country

Choose the niche closest to your business, such as Technology, Business, Health or Travel, and the country your customers are in when it matters.

Sort the list

Sort by best value, highest DR, most traffic, lowest price or fastest delivery. Pinned “Top pick” sites always appear first; these are sites we recommend for quality and reliability.

Understanding Each Listing

  • Site name: shown with a space before the ending, like “Example .com”.
  • View example / View site: opens a sample post already published on that site, or the site itself, so you can check the quality before ordering.
  • DA and DR: authority scores from Moz and Ahrefs.
  • Traffic: estimated monthly organic visitors.
  • Link: Dofollow, Nofollow or Sponsored.
  • Delivery: how many days after article approval the post usually goes live.
  • Price: the full price, including writing.
Sana, a freelance SEO consultant in Toronto, orders for several clients each month. She opens “View example” on every shortlisted site to check how the publisher formats articles and links. If a sample looks thin or overloaded with ads, she removes that site before sending her order.

Plan Your Order

Not sure how far your budget will go? Enter your budget and the level of site you want. The planner estimates how many posts you can get.

How Many Guest Posts Can I Get?

A quick estimate before you start picking sites.

This is an average. Real prices are shown on each site in the list.

How to Send Your Order

  1. Click Add on every site you want. Your selection follows you to the order page.
  2. Click Continue to order or open the order page.
  3. Fill in your name, email, website, target page and anchor text.
  4. Choose whether we write the article (included) or you send your own.
  5. Pick your payment method: PayPal, bank transfer or USDT.
  6. Send the request. You’ll see a confirmation and get an email with the details.
Don’t have a site list yet? You can still send the order form with just your budget and target page. We’ll suggest sites that fit, and you approve them before anything starts.

Payment Options

We don’t take payment on the website. After we confirm your sites are available, you receive payment details for the method you chose:

  • PayPal: quick and familiar for most international buyers.
  • Bank transfer: best for larger orders and businesses that need an invoice.
  • USDT: for clients who prefer crypto payments, on the network shown in your email.

Once paid, send us the payment screenshot by email and we start work the same day.

Writing, Approval and Publishing

Every article is written for the site it will appear on, not copied or spun. The writer places your link naturally in a section that relates to your page. You get the draft first and can ask for changes before it goes live.

After publishing, you receive a report with each live URL. We then check that the post is indexed in Google. If a link is removed or not indexed within the guarantee period, we replace it on a similar site or refund that placement. Our How It Works page lists the current guarantee terms.

Who Uses Markwood?

  • Small businesses: get links and mentions on sites their customers already read.
  • SEO agencies and freelancers: order for many clients without months of outreach.
  • Ecommerce stores: place product guides and reviews on niche sites.
  • Startups: build early authority and brand visibility for a new domain.

Pros and Cons

Pros: full control over sites and budget, prices shown up front, article included, payment only after confirmation, and a clear report at the end.

Cons: you still need to choose wisely; a big list means more options to review. Using the filters and “View example” links keeps that quick.

Rules That Keep the Network Clean

We don’t accept casino, CBD, loan, adult or piracy-related content. This keeps the publisher sites healthy and protects every client’s links. Orders in these niches are declined.

Try it now: open the site list, set your budget and a minimum DR of 30, and add three sites that match your niche. It takes less than five minutes to see exactly what your budget can buy.
