Process

How an order moves from browse to live URL

Same statuses for every order. Money is meant to stay held until you confirm the page is up, or the publisher rejects before work starts.

Overview

Four statuses

The short version. Detail for each step sits below.

  1. Pick a site

    Active listings only. Metrics, prices, and rules before you spend.

  2. Place the order

    Target URL, brief, content type. Price and commission lock.

  3. Publish

    They accept or reject, then deliver a live URL.

  4. Complete

    You confirm the page. Escrow releases. We keep commission.

Browse

Open the catalog

Sign in and you see sites marked active. Draft stays with the publisher until they publish the listing.

  • On the card: domain, DR, traffic, turnaround, provided price.
  • On the detail: RD, language, country, link type, max links, written price, rules.
  • Blank metrics mean unknown. Open the live site before big spends.

Order

Place the brief

Provided content or publisher writes. Price and the 10% commission lock on that order. Later fee changes do not rewrite old ones.

  • Required: content type and target URL.
  • Optional but useful: anchor and brief. Thin briefs get rejected.
  • Keep talk on the order thread so the timeline stays in one place.

Provided

You paste the article. Usually the cheaper line.

Publisher writes

Only if the listing shows a written price.

Publish

Decision, then a live URL

They accept or reject. After accept they publish and submit the page. One revision if the brief was missed.

  1. 1 Pending

    Waiting on the publisher. You can cancel here.

  2. 2 Accept or reject

    Reject is for rules, niche, quality, or capacity.

  3. 3 In progress

    Work starts. Talk stays on the order thread.

  4. 4 Delivered

    Live URL is in. Open it and check the link.

  5. 5 Revision

    If the brief was missed, they deliver again.

Admin can move status if something is stuck, but the default path is the two of you.

Complete

Confirm and release

Completed is the release signal. Status history stays on the order.

  • Publisher amount goes to them. We keep 10%.
  • Disputes stay on the order with a note. Do not reopen the deal in private email.
  • Fee language lives in the terms if you need the formal wording.
