The GrowthBerry Network™

The authority marketplace where hosting backlinks earns, getting backlinks spends

Host a valid, verified backlink on your site — earn Juice Credits. Get one on a vetted publisher — spend credits, held in escrow until our crawler confirms it live. Always labeled, always monitored, never a link scheme.

How the network works

1 · List or request

Publishers list inventory — editorial mentions, resource listings, expert quotes — priced in Juice Credits. Brands request placements from Fresh Picks, our vetted opportunity queue.

Publisher approval is always required. No placement happens without a human on both sides.

2 · Escrow, place, verify

The receiving brand's credits go into escrow. The publisher places the mention; our crawler fetches the live page and verifies the anchor, the context, and the rel attribute before anything settles.

Compensated placements physically cannot enter our database without rel="sponsored" — it's a schema constraint, not a promise.

3 · Settle and monitor

Verification releases escrow: the publisher earns the juice, the brand's placement is live and labeled. Daily sweeps watch retention — if a placement disappears, both sides are alerted and the ledger settles honestly.

Every credit movement — grant, escrow, release, spend, refund — is a row on an append-only ledger.

For publishers — earn juice

  • • List the placement types you accept and your credit price
  • • Approve every request — nothing is auto-placed on your site
  • • Earn credits the moment our crawler verifies the backlink live
  • • Spend earnings on your own growth: guides, audits, placements

For brands — spend juice

  • • Pick vetted, niche-matched opportunities from Fresh Picks
  • • Credits sit in escrow until the backlink is verified live
  • • Paid backlinks ship labeled rel="sponsored" — audit-proof
  • • Earned editorial (pitched on merit) stays a normal followed link

Why the labeling matters: Google treats unlabeled paid links and excessive reciprocal exchanges as link spam — but properly qualified sponsorships are just advertising. Our network is built so the compliant path is the only path. Read the explainer →
