We've used Linkby for nearly two years and have cut the relationship short. At first, the proposition seems to be great. You get articles and only pay for the "high quality" clicks. But... You do indeed get articles published on good publications but those clicks, those are garbage. On our latest campaign, a 5000 GBP budget got us exactly 0 sales, even though we supposedly had 3000+ high quality clicks. Bounce rate, time on site,... all the metrics were horrible. More worrying is that while the budget is used up at a normal rate, the last few days of the campaign, your budget will suddenly get eaten up at a much faster rate so you end up spending the whole amount. If you're happy to pay 2500-5000$/article and not get good traffic, Linkby is for you. If you'd rather see a good ROI, stay away.
