What counts as a Zambian backlink?
We categorize Zambian backlink inventory into two tiers: Core Zambian publishers with strong local signals, and Extended inventory with meaningful Zambian traffic.
Core Zambian inventory (59 publishers)
These are publishers with the strongest Zambian relevance signals:
- 3 websites with a .zm domain
- 49 websites where Zambia is their #1 source of organic search traffic
- 19 websites where Zambia is their #1 source of total traffic
Some examples of .zm inventory publishers and their SEO metrics:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Organic (total) | Organic from Zambia | Total traffic | Traffic from Zambia |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| techtrends.co.zm | Business | Check | 28 | 20 | 303 | 192 | 2.5K | 643 |
| techtrends.co.zm | Business | Check | 28 | 20 | 303 | 192 | 2.5K | 643 |
| techtrends.co.zm | Business | Check | 28 | 20 | 303 | 192 | 2.5K | 643 |
Extended inventory (557 additional publishers)
Beyond the core inventory, we identified 557 additional publishers that receive at least 1,000 visitors per month from Zambia, based on Semrush data. These sites may not be Zambia-focused, but they deliver meaningful Zambian traffic. A few examples:
| Publisher | Category | Price | DR | AS | Total traffic | Traffic from Zambia |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| indiatoday.in | News and Media | Check | 86 | 92 | 28.0M | 3.0K |
| dafontfree.io | Art | Check | 70 | 53 | 2.5M | 1.3K |
| zambiayp.com | Automotive | Check | 12 | 20 | 19.5K | 1.5K |
Domain extension (.zm) and primary traffic source matter less than you might think. What actually drives backlink value is:
- Topical relevance to your website
- Absolute Zambian traffic (not percentage)
A high-authority tech blog from India with 5,000 Zambian visitors/month will often outperform a low-quality .zm site with 500 visitors in backlink value and usually costs less. The link equity flows to Zambian users regardless of where the publisher is based.
Total inventory: 616 publishers
Many domains qualify under more than one category. For example, a .zm domain may also rank as Zambia’s top organic traffic source.
This inventory size ranks Zambia #109 in the global guest posting market.
Zambian backlinks prices
Core Zambian inventory has median guest posting price of $158 and an average of $243.
Here’s a distribution of the inventory size, price ranges and median traffic you can expect from the typical Zambian publisher website in each pricing category:
| Price Range | Inventory Size | Median Traffic |
|---|---|---|
| Under $50 | 13 | 835 |
| $50-149 | 15 | 6.2K |
| $150-349 | 13 | 12.2K |
| $350-749 | 12 | 7.3K |
| $750-1,499 | 6 | 21.7K |
| $1,500+ | 0 | 0 |
Where to buy Zambian backlinks
We aggregate data from 25 major backlink marketplaces worldwide, making it easy to identify platforms with the largest inventory for any country.
For Zambia, the top three are prnews.io (270 domains), bazoom.com (200 domains), and adsy.com (322 domains).
| Marketplace | Total | .zm TLD | Top Organic | Top Total | 1K+ Visitors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| prnews.io | 270 | 0 | 18 | 6 | 258 |
| bazoom.com | 200 | 1 | 22 | 5 | 184 |
| adsy.com | 322 | 1 | 30 | 10 | 304 |
| Unique Total | 496 | ||||
However, many Zambian publishers are exclusive to exact marketplaces.
When we deduplicate across all three, the combined unique inventory is 496 domains — meaning 38% 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.
