What Backlinks.fr is
Backlinks.fr is a French link building platform that has been running since 2013, which makes it one of the older names on this market. It works on the classic model: a catalogue of sites, a placement in a dedicated article, and a French-language inventory covering blogs, media, forums, niche and generalist sites.
Its defining characteristic in 2026 is what it does not show. There is no public pricing and no browsable catalogue: access goes through registration, and often through an invitation. That is a deliberate choice on this market rather than an oversight, but it changes how you should approach the platform.
A closed catalogue, and what that means for you
You cannot compare Backlinks.fr against another supplier before creating an account. That has one advantage and one cost. The advantage is that a closed catalogue is harder for competitors to scrape, so the sites in it are less saturated with paid links than inventory listed publicly everywhere. The cost is that you are committing time before you know whether the inventory suits you.
Treat the account as the evaluation step. Once inside, check the same things you would anywhere: real traffic on the sites offered, topical fit with your business, and how many paid articles each domain already carries.
The offers
The model is placement in a dedicated article, on French-language sites. Types available span blogs, media, forums, niche and generalist sites. Pricing is visible after registration.
Because rates are not published, treat any figure you see quoted elsewhere as unverified. The reliable way to know what a link costs here is to open an account and look.
How it works
Registration, then access to the catalogue, then ordering per placement with your target page and anchor. Sites are visible before purchase once you are inside, which is the important part: you are not buying an authority bracket blind.
Guarantees, limits and what to watch
Three things to weigh. The inventory is French-language only, so this covers one market and no other. There is no API and no affiliate programme. And the absence of public pricing means you cannot benchmark it against Rocketlinks or SemJuice without registering on all three.
For a French campaign it is worth the account. For anything outside France, it is not the right platform.
