AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Free Backlinks & Guest Post Exchange – Consolety is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 8 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction

How Free Backlinks & Guest Post Exchange – Consolety works
Show full descriptionShow less
Free backlinks. Real websites. Zero budget.
Consolety is a free guest post and backlink exchange network built into WordPress. You earn backlinks the honest way: write a guest post, publish it on another verified site in the network, and keep the links in it – without paying the $70-450+ that guest post marketplaces charge per placement.
No money changes hands. Instead, the network runs on points:
Host a guest post on your site -> earn points
Spend those points to publish your own guest post (with your backlinks) on another site
You curate everything: you write your own content, you approve what appears on your site
Why the backlinks are actually worth something Most “free backlink” schemes give you links from spam directories and link farms. Consolety only contains real websites, because every member must prove ownership through Google Search Console OAuth. Google confirms the domain is theirs, and the network shows real GSC traffic data (clicks, impressions) for every publisher. Anonymous link farms cannot get in.
How It Works
Connect and verify – Install the plugin and link your Google Search Console. Google confirms you own the domain.
Browse the network – Discover verified publishers by niche, language, and real traffic. You can see the live network before you even connect.
Exchange content – Write guest posts in the built-in editor and submit them to sites you choose. Host posts from others to earn points.
Keep your backlinks – Published posts are regular WordPress articles on the host site. Daily link monitoring alerts you if a backlink disappears.
