How credits are used per post

Backlinker Plans & credits

Writing a guest post costs 5 credits, plus 2 for a web image or 5 for an AI image.

Credits pay for the AI work your agents do. Each post uses:

  • 5 credits for the topic, outline and article.
  • +2 credits for an existing web image, or +5 credits for an AI generated image.

So a post costs about 7 credits with web images and about 10 credits with AI images. Before writing, the agent checks that you have enough: 7 credits for the web image option, or 5 for the AI option. If there are not enough credits left for the AI image, a stock image is used instead.

Credits versus published posts

Credits are spent when a post is written, even if it is published later or cancelled. Your published posts limit is counted separately, so plan your agents' rhythm around both numbers.
