Interface
VefoGix provide the basic key features about the publisher sites. The platform shows traffic and domain authority metrics. Traffic figures are sourced from Semrush and Ahrefs, and the domain authority metrics include Semrush AS, the most reliable out of all.
Yet, the platform also fails to provide other key features like traffic geo-distribution and traffic trends of the publisher sites.
The turnaround time and the reliability metrics shown for each publisher is commendable. But overall, we feel the data transparency could be much better.
Buying backlinks
From the user’s perspective, we are replicating the same customer journey on every guest-posting marketplace. As a user, I want to promote my Content Audit Tool on a truly authoritative website. This includes:
- The publisher’s website must receive at least 1,000 monthly visits from organic traffic. I want a backlink from a Google-recognized site.
- The traffic should be stable or growing, not declining. My investment should increase in value over time, or at least not decrease.
- The traffic source should be the US, as it’s my home market, and 90% of my audience is based here.
- The publisher’s relevance matters for topical authority. A cooking website isn’t the best place to promote an SEO SaaS tool.
- I want a Semrush Authority Score (AS) higher than my website’s, which is 24 as of today. I don’t consider legacy metrics from Moz, Ahrefs, and Majestic, as they became useless after Google’s Useful Content Update in March 2024. DA and DR were too easy to manipulate for years before the March update.
- I prefer the content publisher or platform copywriter to create content following their guidelines, using my input as the foundation.
- Lastly, I want to spend $200 or less on my backlink. Price matters.
So, I set out to filter sites based on these criteria.
I could easily filter for traffic, site category (topical authority), and price. The platform has a country filter but I’m not sure how effective it is since there isn’t any info on site country on the marketplace.
With these filters in place, I got a shortlist of only 4 sites. I guess the country filter isn’t the best here. I removed the country filter to get more number of publisher sites. 63 to be precise, which is good.
I couldn’t filter for Semrush AS, but I can see the AS scores for each site. It’s slightly less effective, but manageable.
The traffic trend and geo-distribution data felt severely lacking though.
Data accuracy
Next, I picked a site at random and compared the data on SEO tools on the platform with the same data on VefoGix to ensure the metrics are updated.
We do it because sometimes marketplaces “forget” to show significant changes in publishers’ metrics, especially negative ones.
The traffic figures shown for this random site on VefoGix are – 33K (Semrush) and 20K (Ahrefs).
But when I checked the site traffic on Semrush, it shows 16.9K!
The same is the case with Ahrefs traffic. Ahrefs shows the traffic site at 20.4K.
Either the VefoGix shows total traffic, or they aren’t updating the traffic figures frequently.
Another data to look it is the traffic distribution by country. If you look at this site and their traffic distribution in Semrush and Ahrefs above, you’ll notice, barely 5% of traffic comes from the US.
The high traffic, although looks good, don’t really come from the US. That’s why we focus on traffic geo-distribution so much.
Customer support speed and quality
To check the company’s support quality, we submitted an anonymous support request asking about how to use filters.
The company replied within 6 hours, which is a speedy response for the companies on the market. The reply quality was decent, but we felt it could be better. Overall, we liked their support speed and responsiveness.
Public reviews responsiveness
VefoGix has only two reviews on Trustpilot. So, it’s difficult to infer anything from just two reviews.
Since it’s just two ratings, we are not looking too deeply into this. With a handful of reviews, it’s difficult to gauge how honest and transparent those reviews are to form an opinion about the service.

Bottomline
We consider VefoGix a legit guest-post marketplace.
The platform provides decent data metrics and filters to shortlist the publisher sites. Their customer support is responsive as well. However, the lack of traffic trend and geo-distribution disappoint. The traffic figures also need more frequent updating.
Overall, we consider VefoGix a decent guest-posting platform to look towards.
