FAQ

Anything else? Email contact@createandgrow.com.

Why does a free link exchange group cost $99?

Until now every member was hand-picked by the admin. As the community grows, a paid membership keeps that quality. The fee is a filter. Open link groups fill up with resellers, link farms and price lists within weeks. A one-time fee plus a manual check of every applicant keeps the room for people who own or run real sites and want fair swaps.

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay $99 once and keep access for as long as the community runs. No renewals, no upsells.

Can I sell links or post my price list?

No. Selling links, posting rate cards, offering paid guest posts or acting as a reseller gets you removed without a refund. FreeBacklinks is only for exchanges and link partnerships.

What kind of exchanges happen here?

Direct swaps (A links to B, B links to A), three-way ABC exchanges, guest post swaps, brand mentions and listicle inclusions. You agree on the details with the other member in DMs.

Who gets accepted?

SaaS companies, agencies, in-house SEO and marketing teams, and owners or editors of real websites with real traffic. We check the site you apply with before sending the invite.

What happens after I pay?

We review your application, usually within 24 hours, and send a Slack invite to the email you gave. If your application is not accepted, you get a full refund.

How do I pay?

Through PayPal. You can pay with your PayPal balance or with a debit or credit card via PayPal checkout.

Are link exchanges safe for SEO?

Google warns against excessive link exchanges and link schemes. The safest swaps are relevant, editorial links between sites that genuinely fit each other. That is the kind of partnership this community is built for, and why link sellers and farms are kept out.

Who runs FreeBacklinks?

Georgi Todorov, a link builder since 2016 and founder of the link building agency Create & Grow. He is the admin of the Slack workspace and reviews every application.
