AccessLink review: links from €4 in French and English, offers, pricing and loyalty programme
AccessLink review: sponsored articles from €4 excl. VAT delivered within the hour, in French, English, German, Italian and Spanish. Destocking, Classic and Premium offers, indexing guarantee and loyalty tiers.
Sponsored articles for €4, delivered within the hour: that is AccessLink‘s promise, and it delivers. The platform sells links on its own network of sites, with some of the lowest prices on the French market, an indexing guarantee and a loyalty programme that brings the bill down further as you order. To build up your metrics, dilute your anchors or strengthen your existing links, it is one of the most effective tools around.
AccessLink is French, but it is fully at home in English: its website and client area exist in English, and its network publishes in French, English, German, Italian and Spanish. For a brand that wants links on French sites, or an agency running campaigns in several languages, everything happens from the same account.
Here is how it works, what each offer costs and how to get the most out of it.
- A French link building platform, based in Annecy, that publishes on a network of around 5,000 sites it owns.
- Three offers: Destocking at €4, Classic from €7 and Premium from €20 excluding VAT, and a first article for €2.
- Delivery announced within one hour at most, and an « indexed or replaced » guarantee at 21 days.
- Five publishing languages, some fifteen topics, a Chrome extension, order import and an API.
- A loyalty programme that goes down to €5 per themed article and gives away articles by the dozen.
What is AccessLink?
AccessLink is a low-cost sponsored article platform. You enter the page to push, the anchor and the topic; AccessLink writes the article and publishes it on one of its sites. No publisher catalogue to sift through, no negotiation: you order, and the link is live a few minutes later.
The platform is run by Lavisibilite.com, an SEO agency based in Annecy, in the French Alps, and led by its founder, an SEO practitioner himself. It reports more than 10,000 agency and advertiser customers. Its special feature: every publishing site belongs to it. They are WordPress sites with unique designs, hosted on different IP addresses. AccessLink does not accept any external sites.
The network publishes in French, English, Spanish, German and Italian, and the platform itself is available in seven languages, with a version of the website for each country. Every domain shows at least a Trust Flow of 10 and 10 referring domains.
AccessLink for links in French and in English
You choose the language with each order, and the article is written in that language. A brand launching in France can therefore order French links for its French pages, and English links for its English pages, at the same prices and with the same guarantees. The client area, the order form and the support all work in English.
French remains the historical core of the network, which makes AccessLink one of the most affordable ways to get links from French-language sites quickly. For multilingual sites, the same process applies in every language.
How does AccessLink work?
Sign-up is free, and you pay when you order, by card or by PayPal (with a 5% fee in that case). No credits to top up in advance: you pay for what you order.
An order takes a few fields: the offer, the topic, the target URL and the anchor. As for anchors, you choose freely: a random generic anchor (« click here », « this site »…), a naked URL, an optimised or partially optimised anchor. AccessLink then assigns the site automatically, and never places you twice on the same site for the same domain.
- The online form: offer, topic, URL and anchor, article by article.
- Order import: one file to place dozens of links at once.
- The Chrome extension: to order from the page you want to push, in a few clicks.
- The API: a key to generate and documentation to download, for agencies that automate.
Speed is the house’s real hallmark: the terms and conditions state delivery within one hour at most after approval. You receive an email with the article’s address as soon as it is live. As long as writing has not started, the URL and the anchor can be corrected in one click.
AccessLink offers and pricing
The price grid fits into three offers, displayed as such on the website:
Each offer has a specific purpose. Classic is the core of the platform, Premium lets you choose a stronger site, and Destocking lets you multiply links for next to nothing.
| Offer | Price excl. VAT | Article | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| First order | €2 | Classic article | The very first article, once per customer |
| Destocking | €4 | Existing article, 300 words min. | Fixed anchor, indexed or refunded guarantee |
| Classic, general site | €7 | Custom-written, 800 words min. | Anchor of your choice, article on the site’s homepage, indexed or replaced guarantee |
| Classic, themed site | €10 | Custom-written, 800 words min. | The same, on a site in your sector |
| Premium | from €20 | Custom-written | Choice of site, metrics displayed, TF 18 and 40 RD minimum, ranking pages |
Links are dofollow, with a single client link per article, and stay online with no time limit. For large volumes, a quote is available on Classic and Premium.
Destocking: links for €4
This is AccessLink’s most original offer. Destocking sells articles already published on the network, into which your link is added. You search by keywords, language and topic, add to your basket, pay, then enter your URLs.
The stock is renewed quickly, with more than a thousand articles added every month. The anchor is fixed and the article is short, but at €4, it is ideal for boosting your referring domains, strengthening a first-tier link or diluting an over-optimised profile. If the article is not indexed after 21 days, AccessLink refunds you with a voucher. Just remember to enter your URL within 30 days of purchase.
The « indexed or replaced » guarantee
On Classic articles, AccessLink checks indexing 21 days after publication. If the article is not in Google, a new article is written and published straight away, then another if needed, until your link is indexed. It is one of the most generous guarantees on the market: there is no limit to the number of replacements.
The guarantee covers the first indexing. AccessLink also alerts you when a link becomes unavailable, after a 404 error or a server problem.
Topics and languages
The network is divided into some fifteen topics, with more than a thousand general sites and several hundred per sector: tourism, art and culture, technology, business, health, vehicles, cooking, finance and real estate, music, home, sport, fashion, animals.
Sensitive topics are not excluded: adult and gambling topics have their own network, on a dedicated domain. Only fortune-telling, hate, piracy and anything illegal are refused. For international campaigns, the same process applies in every publishing language.
The loyalty programme
This is what makes AccessLink formidable for heavy link buyers. Every month, your spending moves you up a ladder of tiers, with a mascot that evolves, and each tier unlocks a benefit for the following month, which can be combined with current promotions.
From €100 spent in the month, your themed articles drop to €9 the following month; at €500, €8; at €1,000, €7; down to €5 per article above €5,000. Between these tiers, articles are given away: 2 from €250, 6 from €750, 12 from €1,500, 30 from €3,500. Even a small budget is rewarded: €50 in the month gets you an article for €5.
AccessLink day to day
The client area gets straight to the point. Two display modes are available: simplified mode, which lists your orders, and advanced mode, which groups them by project (by client, by month, by campaign). The history shows each order with its number of articles, its total and its status, and each line can be exported or downloaded with its invoice.
I have used AccessLink for my own sites for several years: around sixty orders, more than 300 articles, at under €4 per article on average. The largest batches, built from Destocking and with loyalty benefits, came to under €2 per link. Supporting links, ordered in volume, delivered fast.
Support answers by chat and email. And if you recommend it to others, the affiliate programme pays 15% in cash or 30% in vouchers on all your referrals’ orders, for life.
What we like about AccessLink
Unbeatable prices
€2 for the first article, €4 in Destocking, €7 for a custom-written article: for volume, there is nothing cheaper in French, and the loyalty programme brings the bill down further.
Delivery within the hour
Ordered in the morning, live before your next coffee. To test an anchor, push a page or relaunch a campaign, this responsiveness changes everything.
An unlimited indexing guarantee
A new article for as long as the link is not indexed, a voucher refund on Destocking: you pay for links that Google knows about.
A network controlled from end to end
Its own sites, unique designs and distinct IP addresses: AccessLink controls the whole chain, from writing to publication.
Several languages from one English interface
French, English, German, Italian and Spanish articles, ordered from a client area in English: an international agency can run all its supporting links in one place.
Tools designed for volume
Order import, Chrome extension, API, projects and exports: you place a hundred links as easily as one.
Things to know
The site is assigned for you
With Classic and Destocking, you choose the topic, not the site: you discover the address on publication. To choose your site and see its metrics, move up to Premium.
A tool for volume and reinforcement
AccessLink excels at diluting anchors, multiplying referring domains and strengthening existing links. For a major strategic page, combine it with a few links on more powerful sites.
Short articles in Destocking
Destocked articles have at least 300 words and the anchor is fixed. That is the price of a €4 link; for a custom article, stick with Classic.
No withdrawal after ordering
Orders are final, and claims must be made within seven days of delivery. Check your URLs and anchors before confirming.

My tips for using AccessLink well

- Go for themed sites for your important pages: €3 more for a site in your sector.
- Use Destocking for reinforcement: to point to your sponsored articles and give them more weight.
- Group your purchases in the same month to reach a loyalty tier and pay less the following month.
- Vary your anchors: mix generic, URL and optimised anchors to keep a natural profile.
AccessLink vs the alternatives

My verdict on AccessLink
AccessLink does one thing and does it very well: cheap links, delivered fast, on a network it controls from end to end. Between Destocking at €4, Classic at €7, the unlimited indexing guarantee and a very generous loyalty programme, it is the ideal tool to build up your metrics, dilute your anchors and strengthen your best links, in French as well as in English.
Use it as a volume base, move up to Premium for your key pages, and group your orders to benefit from the tiers: you will get a lot of links on a very reasonable budget.
Ready to order your first links?
A first article for €2, then links from €4 excluding VAT, delivered within the hour.
The AccessLink links on this page are affiliate links: if you create your account through them, I earn a commission, and you pay the same price. My opinion remains my own.
