What counts as a Costa Rican backlink?
We categorize Costa Rican backlink inventory into two tiers: Core Costa Rican publishers with strong local signals, and Extended inventory with meaningful Costa Rican traffic.
Core Costa Rican inventory (165 publishers)
These are publishers with the strongest Costa Rican relevance signals:
- 14 websites with a .cr domain
- 60 websites where Costa Rica is their #1 source of organic search traffic
- 125 websites where Costa Rica is their #1 source of total traffic
Some examples of .cr inventory publishers and their SEO metrics:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Organic (total) | Organic from Costa Rica | Total traffic | Traffic from Costa Rica |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| elpais.cr | Politics | Check | 62 | 37 | 13.6K | 4.4K | 25.8K | 3.3K |
| deporticos.co.cr | Business | Check | 18 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 1.1K | 79 |
| deporticos.co.cr | Business | Check | 18 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 1.1K | 79 |
Extended inventory (1,647 additional publishers)
Beyond the core inventory, we identified 1,647 additional publishers that receive at least 1,000 visitors per month from Costa Rica, based on Semrush data. These sites may not be Costa Rica-focused, but they deliver meaningful Costa Rican traffic. A few examples:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Total traffic | Traffic from Costa Rica |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| climaya.com | News and Media | Check | 24 | 35 | 17.6K | 1.2K |
| cualesmiip.com | Computers | Check | 64 | 43 | 426.3K | 3.0K |
| diariohuarpe.com | Real estate | Check | 46 | 50 | 740.5K | 9.9K |
Domain extension (.cr) and primary traffic source matter less than you might think. What actually drives backlink value is:
- Topical relevance to your website
- Absolute Costa Rican traffic (not percentage)
A high-authority tech blog from India with 5,000 Costa Rican visitors/month will often outperform a low-quality .cr site with 500 visitors in backlink value and usually costs less. The link equity flows to Costa Rican users regardless of where the publisher is based.
Total inventory: 1,812 publishers
Many domains qualify under more than one category. For example, a .cr domain may also rank as Costa Rica’s top organic traffic source.
This inventory size ranks Costa Rica #72 in the global guest posting market.
Costa Rican backlinks prices
Core Costa Rican inventory has median guest posting price of $123 and an average of $176.
Here’s a distribution of the inventory size, price ranges and median traffic you can expect from the typical Costa Rican publisher website in each pricing category:
| Price Range | Inventory Size | Median Traffic |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50 | 50 | 800 |
| $50-149 | 39 | 2.3K |
| $150-349 | 43 | 3.3K |
| $350-749 | 22 | 13.5K |
| $750-1,499 | 8 | 13.4K |
| $1,500+ | 3 | 3.0K |
Where to buy Costa Rican backlinks
We aggregate data from 25 major backlink marketplaces worldwide, making it easy to identify platforms with the largest inventory for any country.
For Costa Rica, the top three are prnews.io (857 domains), bazoom.com (824 domains), and adsy.com (646 domains).
| Marketplace | Total | .cr TLD | Top Organic | Top Total | 1K+ Visitors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prnews.io | 857 | 9 | 31 | 59 | 817 |
| bazoom.com | 824 | 4 | 27 | 31 | 806 |
| adsy.com | 646 | 5 | 13 | 33 | 619 |
| Unique Total | 1,471 | ||||
However, many Costa Rican publishers are exclusive to exact marketplaces.
When we deduplicate across all three, the combined unique inventory is 1,471 domains — meaning 37% 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.
