What is Linkatomic?
Linkatomic is a Spanish sponsored-post platform built around digital media and online newspapers. Its pitch is to handle in one dashboard three things that usually live apart: brand, visibility in AI search and link building.
It works as a two-sided marketplace. On one side the advertisers, who buy publications with a link on independent outlets; on the other the publishers, who list their site to receive those orders and monetise their audience.
The interface runs in Spanish, English, French and Italian, which tells you its markets: southern Europe plus the Spanish-speaking world. Its site claims more than 15,000 registered users.
How does it work?
It depends which side you come in on.
If you are an advertiser
You buy publications with a link across its media catalogue.
- Register and verify the account.
- Filter outlets by topic, country and metrics.
- Write the article or order the copy.
- Approve the published piece before closing it.
If you are a publisher
You list your site to receive publication orders.
- Register your outlet with its terms and rate.
- Wait for the platform to approve it.
- Accept the orders that fit you.
- Publish, and get paid once the piece is approved.
Pros and limitations
A balanced read of what it offers.
What works well
- Clear focus on newspapers and digital media rather than filler blogs.
- Interface in four languages, useful across southern Europe.
- Pay per publication, with no monthly fee.
- An up-to-date pitch: AI search visibility is already part of it.
Where it falls short
- The catalogue is far smaller than an international marketplace's.
- Outside its four languages the inventory thins out.
- Mixing branding, AI and links in one dashboard makes the real cost per link harder to compare.
- Fewer filters and metrics than SEO-only platforms.

Frequently asked questions
- It is a Spanish sponsored-post platform for newspapers and digital media, with two profiles: advertisers who buy publications with a link and publishers who run them. Its interface is available in Spanish, English, French and Italian.
- There is no entry fee: you pay per publication and each outlet sets its rate. What is worth comparing is not the headline price but what it includes: copywriting, link type and how long it stays up.
- Within its languages, yes. Outside Spanish, English, French and Italian the inventory drops off, so for campaigns across more markets a multilingual catalogue will give you more to choose from.
- All three sell publications on Spanish outlets and overlap a lot. The practical difference is the actual catalogue and how much of the campaign you want to run yourself: compare the outlets available for your topic rather than the homepages.
