I can recommend to do your dilligence
There may be contacts offering highly attractive links, they take the money
Then they either don't even have that in their inventory, or they try to arrange it after the money is spent
So always good to double-check the track record nad history

It depends on the clients need and campaign. I keep around 100-150 dollars per month for backlinks per site. Like I said it depends on the campaign budget.

Usually around $300 to $500, but I strictly put that budget into a couple of solid, relevant guest posts instead of cheap link packages. Bulk backlinks just don't offer the same ROI anymore.

I've learned that throwing more money at backlinks doesn't always improve rankings. A smaller budget spent on relevant, high-quality links often performs much better than buying links in bulk.

It depends on the project's goals and competition. I usually start with a modest budget, test different link sources, and scale spending only on placements that consistently improve rankings and traffic instead of chasing high-volume links.

It really depends on the project. I'd rather spend more on a few high-quality, relevant backlinks than buy a large number of low-quality ones. Quality has consistently given me better long-term results than quantity.
