Husky Hamster vs Linksman

A managed service that qualifies the sites for you, against a self-serve marketplace where you pick them yourself.

The short answer

Linksman is a marketplace. You browse publishers, filter by metrics, compare prices and order links from a dashboard, with no subscription. Husky Hamster is a managed service for software companies: we plan the links, qualify each site by hand against a 2,000+ monthly organic visit floor, write the content, and you approve every placement before it goes live, at a flat $295. If you enjoy choosing sites and want the lowest entry price, Linksman is built for that. If you would rather have a specialist do the qualifying and keep a 12-month replacement window in the price, Husky Hamster is built for that.

Facts here come from both companies' own sites, read on October 27, 2026. Husky Hamster wrote this page, so it favors our model, and we say where Linksman is the better fit.

Where Husky Hamster is stronger

  • 01

    The qualifying is done for you

    On a marketplace the buyer weighs every site. Husky Hamster does that work: relevance to your category, real organic traffic of 2,000+ monthly visits in Ahrefs checked against the site, and a screen for link-farm patterns. A site with "write for us" or "advertise with us" pages is out. Then you approve each placement. Andreea Paluszak, Head of Outreach, built these rules. See why we treat DR 40+ as an entry filter, not a verdict.

  • 02

    A plan before the buying

    We start with your pages: which ones sell, which ones rank, and where competitors hold links you lack. You get target pages, an anchor mix and placement types first.

  • 03

    A stated replacement window

    Every link is monitored for 12 months and replaced free if removed. On Linksman's homepage the guarantee covers removal within "the agreed period", so check that period before you order.

  • 04

    One flat price

    No scanning price columns across listings, and no content surcharge.

  • 05

    A specialist's publisher map

    Husky Hamster works only with software companies and starts with 1,200+ active publisher relationships. It has placed 3,500+ links for SaaS and AI companies.

  • 06

    Links chosen for GEO as well as SEO

    We place on the pages software buyers and AI answer engines both read: comparison lists, review roundups and "alternatives to X" pages. A link earns its place if it helps you be found and named in AI answers as well as in search results. We do not promise citations or rankings.

/ their side

Where Linksman is the better fit

  • Control. You pick every site, with live DA, DR, traffic and price shown before you buy.
  • A low entry price. Its FAQ says backlinks start from $50, with niche edits from $199.
  • Speed. It states an average delivery time of 20 hours and a one-week delivery claim.
  • No subscription. Browsing is free, and you order link by link.
  • Resellers and DIY teams. It runs a reseller program and a publisher side, so agencies and in-house SEOs who like selecting inventory have a fast tool.

A note on ownership: Linksman's footer lists Jeenam Infotech LLP at its address, the same company that runs Jeenam. We compare the two on separate pages because they sell differently: a marketplace and monthly managed packages.

/ price

What the same number of links costs

Linksman's price depends on the publishers you choose, so there is no single list price. Its homepage lists example offers from $150 for a link insertion and $180 to $250 for a guest post. Treat those as examples, not a rate card. At Husky Hamster, ten links cost $2,950, always, with content included. Compare the fee divided by links that meet your own floor for traffic, relevance and approval.

/ decide
