<b>Median link cost ranges 3.1x across niches — iGaming $720, SaaS $410, local services $235</b>
There is no universal 'cost per link'. Across 7,100 placements segmented by client vertical (12-month window):
Niche Median link cost
iGaming/finance $720
Crypto $560
SaaS/B2B $410
E-commerce $310
Local services $235
The spread tracks publisher risk tolerance and topical scarcity — regulated, high-LTV niches pay a premium because fewer publishers will host them.
What it means: benchmarking your cost-per-link against a cross-industry average is meaningless.
<b>Compare your cost only against same-vertical placements, never a blended market figure.</b>
