How to Get Featured in CBR
CBR draws about 22.1 million monthly visits, holds a domain rating of 80, and publishes in about a week.
Comics first, and everything that grew out of them
CBR began as Comic Book Resources and still covers comics as its core subject, alongside the film, television and animation that now surrounds them. About 22.1 million monthly visits.
The comics readership is frequently underestimated. It is older than the stereotype, it buys, and it is unusually organised around creators rather than only around properties. For an independent creator or publisher, that is a route to an audience that is genuinely hard to reach any other way.
The routes in
Comics and graphic novels, including independent work.
Creator interviews and profiles.
Franchise film and television coverage.
Animation and manga, which it covers closely.
A placed feature, written and approved by you before it runs. That is what we handle, and it is a different product from an editor there choosing to write about you.
How long it takes
About a week. About average. Plan for the top of the range rather than the bottom, and remember your own approval sits inside the window rather than after it.
Links and indexing
Nofollow. No ranking authority passes, which is normal at a domain rating of 80. Buy it for the audience and the name, not for your rankings.
It indexes and AI engines read it, so the piece works as a citation when someone asks an assistant about you, not only as a link.
What gets turned down
Products with no connection to comics or genre entertainment.
Corporate stories.
Claims about a property the readership knows better than you do.
Who it suits
Independent comics creators and publishers. Animation and genre film studios. Collectibles and merchandise brands. Anyone selling to a fandom that organises around creators.
The short version
22.1 million monthly visits, domain rating 80, nofollow, about a week. The comics audience at scale, which is a specific and loyal readership rather than a general entertainment one.

Frequently asked questions
01How do you get featured in CBR?
Three routes: pitch an editor directly, be quoted as an expert in a piece they are already writing, or use a placement service. We write the article, you approve every word, and we secure the placement. CBR draws about 22.1 million monthly visits and publishes in about a week.
02How long does it take to get published in CBR?
About about a week from approval to publication, against a market average of roughly two weeks. Your own review sits inside that window rather than after it.
03Does CBR give a do-follow link?
CBR marks its outbound links nofollow, so no ranking authority passes. It is bought for the audience and the name. It is still indexed and still read by AI engines, which cite by content rather than by link attribute.
04Is CBR only about comics?
Comics are its core subject, but it also covers the film, television, animation and manga that surround them. For an independent creator or publisher it is one of the few routes to a large, organised fandom that follows creators rather than only properties.
