I want my website to have traffic (referral) from guest posts and niche edits. I am thinking in the direction of finding sites with high DR and traffic for guest posts, hoping that the articles will be on top of SERP, so my site will have traffic from them.
As for niche edit, I don't have a direction for this part yet.
I need your advice and consultation

Buy niche edits on posts with traffic and put your edits on the first paragraph. You will surely get traffic.
But it from sellers who sell niche edits. Get the list if sites use semrush to find out the posts that get traffic for each site.
Guest post traffic is hit or miss.
 
Hey Emmalana, don't look for just a "high DR site." Use Ahrefs to find a specific page on a site that already gets thousands of monthly visitors from Google. Then, pay to get your link inserted into that page.
 
Focus your guest post efforts on relevant, high-DR sites that get organic traffic. Target low-competition keywords for quick SERP wins. For niche edits, find existing, well-ranking articles and pitch your link as a natural, valuable resource to the editor.
 
I’ll give you a strategic plan for both guest posting and niche edits, focusing on referral traffic and SEO value.
 
Guest posting on high DR, traffic rich sites can drive solid referral visitors if your content ranks. For niche edits, target already ranking pages found through tools like Ahrefs or Semrush and get contextual links added. Keep a balance guest posts build authority, while niche edits bring quicker results. Focus on relevance and real traffic, not just DR.
 
guest posts on high-traffic, relevant sites can bring solid referral traffic and SEO value if the content is genuinely useful. Focus on sites with real engagement, not just high DR. For niche edits, target aged pages already ranking for your keywords and ensure the link fits contextually. Quality and relevance always outperform quantity in the long run.
 
With guest posts, I need to find high volume keywords to write articles on. If it ranks high, I will have traffic, right?

Yes, that's correct. If your guest post targets high volume, low competition keywords and ranks well, it can bring steady referral traffic to your site. Just make sure the keyword is relevant to your niche and the content includes a natural, contextual link to your site for the best results.
 
For Guest Posts, create unique content with a natural link. For Niche Edits, offer your link as a valuable update to an existing, high-ranking article. Focus on quality and relevance.
 
For niche edits, focus exclusively on link placement within aged content that already ranks well for relevance. Studies show that links placed higher up in the body text (ideally within the first two paragraphs) often carry up to 40% more link equity than those placed near the article footer. This strategic positioning maximizes the flow of authority from the referring page to your target URL.
 
Focus on guest posts, niche edits, and carefully selected PBNs on relevant, high-traffic sites to gain both referral traffic and SEO value, not just high DR links.

If you want real referral traffic, prioritize only relevant, niche-matched sites metrics alone aren’t enough. For niche edits, target pages already ranking in your niche. Relevance is what drives both authority and traffic. Let me know if you need help choosing the right sites.
 
If your goal is traffic, we should focus on sites that rank for your keywords, not just DR. Guest posts and niche edits on pages with existing search visibility can drive real visits and SEO value

Your plan is good. Just make sure you target sites with a relevant audience along with high DR. Write guest posts on topics people are already searching for and place niche edits on pages that are already ranking. This will give you more stable referral traffic.
 
Guest posts and niche edits are typically the same. The difference is Niche Edit gives you quicker results. If your keywords are stuck on the second or third page, use niche edits to push them to the 1st page instantly. Or if you are looking to rank a new keyword, just go for guest posts. Not just DR; look for other metrics like authority, age, relevancy, and monthly traffic, and use them wisely.

Guest posts on high-DR, real-traffic sites can definitely send strong referral traffic, but remember DR alone doesn’t guarantee SERP positions. You need to choose topical relevance + real organic traffic sites for better seo results.

When it comes to niche edits, the best approach is to place your link inside existing pages that relevant to your niche and already rank and get organic traffic. That gives you quick authority + referral clicks.
 
Focus on sites that have real audience engagement, not just high DR.
Check whether their guest posts actually rank and receive organic traffic.
Posts that already rank in SERPs are more likely to send referral traffic.
 
if referral traffic is your goal, don’t chase DR alone. a lot of high DR sites have almost zero real readers. check if the specific page or category actually ranks and gets traffic, not just the domain metrics.
for guest posts, look for sites ranking for keywords in your niche. if the article itself has search traffic, that’s where referral clicks come from. contextual placement inside useful content works much better than random author bio links.
for niche edits, target existing pages already ranking in SERPs. inserting a relevant link into a page with stable traffic is far more likely to send referral visitors.
also mix your link sources. diversified backlinks across different sites usually perform better than relying only on guest posts.
 
Absolutely, your approach makes sense. A few points from my experience with guest posts and niche edits.
Guest Posts:
  • Focus on high DR + relevant traffic sites in your niche.
  • Quality matters more than quantity a single article on a site with genuine engagement can send more referral traffic than multiple low-quality links.
  • Use SEO-friendly, well-written content with natural anchor texts. If the article ranks high on SERPs, referral traffic can be significant.
Niche Edits:
  • This works best when you find relevant existing articles in your niche that already have traffic.
  • Make sure the link placement is natural and adds value forced or spammy links get ignored or even penalized.
  • Tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush can help identify pages with consistent traffic for niche edits.
Strategy Tip: Start small, test which guest post sites actually send referral traffic, then scale. Niche edits can complement guest posts but don’t rely on them blindly relevance is everything.
