How to Get Featured in Pocket-lint
Pocket-lint draws about 1.9 million monthly visits, holds a domain rating of 79, and publishes in about a week.
Buying guides for people about to buy
Pocket-lint covers consumer technology: phones, headphones, televisions, smart home and the buying advice around them, at about 1.9 million monthly visits with a domain rating of 79.
Its traffic is heavily buying-guide driven, which puts the reader at the point of decision rather than at the point of interest. For a consumer hardware brand that is the useful moment to appear, and it is the same argument that applies to How-To Geek and MakeUseOf.
The routes in
Consumer hardware reviews.
Buying guides and comparisons, the dominant format.
Smart home and audio, closely covered.
Product launches with something to show.
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 79. 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
Enterprise products with no consumer buyer.
Software with no hardware dimension, which is a weaker fit here than on a general tech site.
Specifications that do not hold up.
Who it suits
Consumer electronics brands. Audio and headphone makers. Smart home companies. Television and display brands. Anyone whose customer researches before buying.
The short version
1.9 million monthly visits, domain rating 79, nofollow, about a week. Buying-guide traffic, which means the reader is already deciding.
