A sample backlink report, from real deliveries

This is a real delivery report, anonymised. It shows two orders we delivered: a 50-link in-article pack, paid and delivered in Aug 2026, and a guest post, paid and delivered in Sep 2026. We last checked these links on 20 Sep 2026.

The in-article order placed 93 links for a 50-link pack; its report lists 99, as our re-checks found a second link on some pages. 35 of those are kinds of link our in-article packs no longer include (each now lists articles and in-article links only), so they are left out of the rows and figures below.

What is masked, and why. The client’s website, anchor text and page addresses are theirs, and our publication’s name stays with us, so those are hidden. Only the big publishing platforms keep their names. A smaller site, such as an article directory, is masked whole with its DR and score, because one month of its posts is few enough to read through, and for the same reason every date is kept to the month. Each anchor shows its kind (YourBrand, [your main keyword]), so the mix is still real. Your own report shows every link as a full, clickable URL.

On a named platform the DA and DR shown are the platform’s, not the page’s: a page on ••••.wordpress.com scores what wordpress.com scores. The authority averages below still count the masked sites, from the figures taken off their rows. The guest post is on one of our own publications. Its DR is given as a band, 50+, so the table shows no DR or score for it: an exact figure would point to the publication, and through it to the client.

This in-article order came before our anchor plan: 51% of its live links use one of the client’s keywords as the anchor. Since 15 Sep 2026 every backlink order’s brief sets a mix of brand, web address and keyword anchors, and a delivery of 30 or more live links with over 25% exact-match anchors is held for review before it reaches you.
