FAQ

Does "on both" mean the same seller?

Not necessarily — a domain can be listed on both marketplaces by the same publisher or different resellers. What's shared is the placement opportunity, which is what you dedupe before buying.

Is a bigger database always better?

No. Overlap, price spread, DR/traffic quality and geography decide value for a specific campaign. Comparing databases is how you buy the same link for less and find inventory a single platform can't offer.

Methodology: catalogs matched on normalized domain; prices are the cheapest listing per platform per domain; DR and country from Ahrefs metrics on the same key. Figures reflect the current snapshot and shift as catalogs update.
