REVIEW
IN SHORT: the provider (gold service) didn't fully inform about the turnaround time (25 days) and about the no-follow link.
No recommendation, form your own opinion

The plus:
The minus:
- Lack of information about where the guest post is really published on the chosen website. I thought it would be published in a blog section. It was in fact published from the provider account as a post (facebook-like functionality).
- No information about the no-follow link. I should have been more careful by asking explicitly.
