Linkuma review

This review is based on Linkuma’s public pages and third-party ratings, checked on 4 October 2026. The rating out of 10 is the editor’s own judgement.

How it works

Linkuma is a French platform for buying backlinks. You buy credits, choose sites from the catalogue and order an article with your link, written by Linkuma or supplied by you. The home page says the catalogue holds 45,000 sites across 12 sectors and that 14,000 agencies and consultants use it. Delivery is quoted at 24 to 72 hours. The company is based at 20 chemin des Poses, Poisy, in France.

The home page also offers a free SEO audit, a free first campaign to test the service and a deals page with discounts of up to 80 percent.

Pricing

Linkuma states its price range: from 7 euros to several hundred euros per backlink, with no minimum order. You pay with credits, which the terms of sale say stay valid for two years from the date of purchase.

Seven euros is far below what an article on a site with real readers normally costs. Our lesson on cheap backlinks explains what sits at that end of the market, and the cost and budget guide shows typical prices for comparison. The low entry price is useful for testing the platform. It is not a reason to buy in bulk.

Quality

Linkuma does not publish how it selects the 45,000 sites. With prices this low, expect a wide spread: some sites with an audience, and some that exist mainly to sell links. If many sites in a catalogue share an owner, hosting or design, the result can resemble a private blog network. We have not examined Linkuma’s catalogue, so we make no claim about it either way. Check each site for organic traffic, topic fit and outbound links, as set out in how to vet a publisher.

The guarantee

Linkuma’s offer is called indexed or replaced. If an article is not indexed within 21 days, you get one replacement article. The terms of sale limit this to content written by Linkuma. For content you supply, Linkuma commits only to publication, with no obligation of result. Our lesson on backlink indexing explains why indexing matters.

Two limits are worth knowing. The terms say purchases cannot be refunded for any reason. And we found no stated period for which a published link must stay live, where WhitePress promises 36 months.

Restricted topics

The terms of sale are clear here. Linkuma may refuse to publish links to sites on illegal subjects, with casinos given as the example, or on contentious ones such as CBD. Links for sports betting and poker must meet the rules of the French gambling regulator, the ANJ. If you work in these fields, see our iGaming hub.
