What counts as a Zimbabwean backlink?
We categorize Zimbabwean backlink inventory into two tiers: Core Zimbabwean publishers with strong local signals, and Extended inventory with meaningful Zimbabwean traffic.
Core Zimbabwean inventory (74 publishers)
These are publishers with the strongest Zimbabwean relevance signals:
- 24 websites with a .zw domain
- 54 websites where Zimbabwe is their #1 source of organic search traffic
- 18 websites where Zimbabwe is their #1 source of total traffic
Some examples of .zw inventory publishers and their SEO metrics:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Organic (total) | Organic from Zimbabwe | Total traffic | Traffic from Zimbabwe |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| healthtimes.co.zw | Finance | Check | 46 | 30 | 2.3K | 143 | 38.1K | 356 |
| thestandard.co.zw | Business | Check | 53 | 29 | 978 | 486 | 10.5K | 1.5K |
| starnews.co.zw | News and Media | Check | 0 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 53 | 0 |
Extended inventory (605 additional publishers)
Beyond the core inventory, we identified 605 additional publishers that receive at least 1,000 visitors per month from Zimbabwe, based on Semrush data. These sites may not be Zimbabwe-focused, but they deliver meaningful Zimbabwean traffic. A few examples:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Total traffic | Traffic from Zimbabwe |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ma-no.org | Science | Check | 51 | 18 | 16.4K | 1.8K |
| thesouthafrican.com | Lifestyle | Check | 73 | 68 | 2.4M | 1.3K |
| chromegeek.com | Technology | Check | 27 | 7 | 19.7K | 3.6K |
Domain extension (.zw) and primary traffic source matter less than you might think. What actually drives backlink value is:
- Topical relevance to your website
- Absolute Zimbabwean traffic (not percentage)
A high-authority tech blog from India with 5,000 Zimbabwean visitors/month will often outperform a low-quality .zw site with 500 visitors in backlink value and usually costs less. The link equity flows to Zimbabwean users regardless of where the publisher is based.
Total inventory: 679 publishers
Many domains qualify under more than one category. For example, a .zw domain may also rank as Zimbabwe’s top organic traffic source.
This inventory size ranks Zimbabwe #108 in the global guest posting market.
Zimbabwean backlinks prices
Core Zimbabwean inventory has median guest posting price of $122 and an average of $158.
Here’s a distribution of the inventory size, price ranges and median traffic you can expect from the typical Zimbabwean publisher website in each pricing category:
| Price Range | Inventory Size | Median Traffic |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50 | 20 | 814 |
| $50-149 | 20 | 9.1K |
| $150-349 | 23 | 7.9K |
| $350-749 | 6 | 21.7K |
| $750-1,499 | 5 | 3.3K |
| $1,500+ | 0 | 0 |
Where to buy Zimbabwean backlinks
We aggregate data from 25 major backlink marketplaces worldwide, making it easy to identify platforms with the largest inventory for any country.
For Zimbabwe, the top three are prnews.io (285 domains), bazoom.com (250 domains), and adsy.com (362 domains).
| Marketplace | Total | .zw TLD | Top Organic | Top Total | 1K+ Visitors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prnews.io | 285 | 5 | 21 | 9 | 272 |
| bazoom.com | 250 | 17 | 33 | 7 | 229 |
| adsy.com | 362 | 12 | 30 | 12 | 344 |
| Unique Total | 554 | ||||
However, many Zimbabwean publishers are exclusive to exact marketplaces.
When we deduplicate across all three, the combined unique inventory is 554 domains — meaning 39% of publishers are exclusive to a single marketplace.
To maximize your options and get the best prices, you’d need accounts on all three platforms.
Alternatively, FatGrid provides access to inventory from all 25 marketplaces through a single account.
We handle the complexity of managing multiple platforms and offer a full refund guarantee — if a placement fails, you get 100% of your money back to your original payment method, not marketplace credits.
This matters because many platforms only refund to their internal balance or charge refund fees, effectively locking your funds.
