What is Collaborator.pro?
As the name suggests, Collaborator.pro is a âCollaborationâ platform. It basically is a content marketing platform that lets you gain exposure for your app/website/startup etc. It also lets you make money if youâre on the other side and are able to offer said exposure. It basically acts as an escrow/mediator making sure both parties fulfil their ends of the bargain.Â
It connects publishers (those who need exposure)Â with advertisers (those who can offer exposure).
You can join if you own a product/service that needs promotion or have a website/Telegram channel that can offer the promotion.
Yes, unlike other Collaboration platforms, Collaborator.pro isnât limited just to âWebsitesâ. You heard that right. Sure, you can promote your website and project on websites but you can also promote on Telegram channels!Â
Specifically, you either can get your post/articles published on a website, or get your âlinksâ shared on Telegram channels.Â
Hereâs an overview of all its primary features:
- Website: https://collaborator.pro/
- Promotions on: Websites & Telegram channelsÂ
- Payment modes: Cryptocurrencies, Bank transfers, Cards, Payoneer etc.
- Deposit fee: 10%
- Withdrawal fee: 15%
- Support: Live-chatÂ
- 1 year protection against deletion and deindexation.Â
Single account for both Publishing and AdvertisingÂ
This is a feature that Iâve desperately been looking for. Unlike most other similar platforms, you do not have to create two separate accounts for publishing and advertising.Â
Rather, a single account lets you sign in both as a publisher as well as an advertiser. You can switch between the modes at any time.Â
Advertiser- User interface
Do you need to be a tech-wiz in order to use Collaborator? Not exactly. Even if this is your first-ever use of Collaborator, you wouldnât feel lost.
I say that because this is what you see when you first login as an advertiser:
Focus on the progress-bar at the bottom-left sidebar. It has a list of things you should do. If you simply follow this list and complete these steps, youâre done. Itâs almost a guided process, isnât it?
You can also use the left-sidebar to go to your Control Panel, projects, browse a list of available sites etc.Â
All in all, Iâm confident the screen is pretty easy to understand and navigate around, isnât it?
Multiple Payment Modes
Of course we need to look at the payment modes as well, donât we? Fortunately, Collaborator offers more than one ways to make your payments.
You can pay using :
- Cards
- Cryptocurrencies (USDT)
- Payoneer
- And Bank transfers.
Now those I believe are more than enough to cover you no matter where youâre from and what payments you prefer, donât you agree?Â
Collaborator Deposit Fees
So, how much do you pay to deposit on Collaborator? Do note that this is specifically the âdeposit feesâ. It also primarily applies to advertisers as only they need to deposit funds for their projects.Â
The fee will primarily depend on the mode of deposit used.Â
- Bank cards: 3.5%
- USDT: 4%
- Bank transfers: 1%
- Payoneer- Free.Â
On top of this thereâs a 10% deposit fee. Yes, it seems high but itâs not. With most other platforms, you pay a commission for each âjobâ. On the other hand, you pay a one-time deposit fee on Collaborator and thatâs it. This actually brings down your âper jobâ cost as compared to paying for each job.Â
In my opinion, itâs not exactly âexpensiveâ, is it?Â
Instant & everyday withdrawals
This is an extremely rare feature that most other similar platforms miss out on. With most other collaboration platforms Iâve used, thereâs usually some wait-time before I can request my funds.Â
Also, those other platforms generally send funds on specific days of the month/week.
On Collaborator.pro, publishers can request instant withdrawals as soon as their project is cleared. More importantly, the platform sends out withdrawals every single day! No more waiting!Â
Project creation settings
So, how exactly do you create a project for promotion on Collaborator? Hey, if youâre spending your time on this Collaborator.pro review, Iâll make sure you get every bit of information possible!Â
Well, this is the project creation page:
You simply enter your project URL, name, country, region, city and your central theme.
Do note that the âCountryâ selection isnât absolute. Meaning, your project can also be picked up from any publisher across the globe and region. However, specifying a country/region may help you get picked by publishers from that specific region.
Next, you get to specify your anchor texts. Whatâs special is, you may or may not allow modifications. If you check the âAllow to declineâ checkbox, the publisher can change the anchor text. This may allow them to include more appropriate and content specific anchor texts.
Thatâs about it! You just created your first project!Â
Extremely transparent (and verified) publisher stats
When it comes to exposure, itâs extremely important that you select the right sites. Not just from a conversion perspective but getting published on the wrong niche even messes up your SEO.
Fortunately, Collaborator offers an extremely detailed list of stats you can use to verify a siteâs standards.
At first glance, youâll see basic details such as:
- Site URL
- Subject (niche)
- Traffic (verified and fetched from Google Analytics/ SimilarWeb or other similar sources).
- Domain RatingÂ
- No. of reviews
- And PricingÂ
This information alone is enough to get you a more than decent idea about a site, isnât it?Â
However, if you click on any site from this list, you get access to even more details.Â
As the screenshot above shows, the detailed information page includes:
- Traffic (verified data fetched from Google Analytics)
- Domain Rating (fetched from Ahrefs)
- Amount being charged (on the right) etc.
- ReviewsÂ
- And even âSection where itâll be placedâ
On the same page, if you scroll down, a ton of other information is available as well. This includes:
- Post requirement
- Placement speedÂ
- Trust Score and Citation Score (fetched from Majestic)
- Advertising mark: The presence, or the lack thereof of a label that will indicate that the article is sponsored.
- Google Index: The total no. of indexed pages for the site.
- Site type
- Link type: Dofollow/ Nofollow
- No. of anchors allowed
- Over 2 dozen Ahrefs data. This includes Ahrefs rank, DR, UR, Organic traffic according to Ahrefs, referral domains, linked domains, total backlinks and a lot more. You can learn more about Ahrefs and its superpowers if you read this extremely detailed Ahrefs review.
- Serpstat Data: Alike the Ahrefs data, Collaborator also fetches data from Serpstat and shows you SDR, referring domains, incoming links, no. of âTop 100â results and more. Again, weâve got an ultra-detailed Serpstat review if youâd like to know what else Serpstat uncovers.
Thatâs not all.
If you scroll down, it also shows your monthly traffic as well as traffic sources.
Thereâs a graph showing traffic and the different traffic sources are listed on the side.
Bottom line? Youâll get an extremely detailed insight into every listed site. More importantly, these stats are verified and are guaranteed to be correct.
Insurance against deletion and deindexationÂ
Now this is something thatâs extremely important but isnât offered by most Collaborator alternatives.
Collaborator has an âinsuranceâ you can opt for. Itâs always at a fixed price of 10% of your total transaction.Â
If you go for the Insurance, Collaborator.Pro protects your article for 1 year. What does it protect against?
Deletion and de-indexation. In simpler words, itâs ensured that your article will not be deleted, or de-indexed for at least 1 year.
Only high quality websites/Telegram channels acceptedÂ
The quality of websites is of utmost importance, isnât it? Sure, Collaborator accepting âeveryoneâ sounds good, especially for the publishers but it would kill the quality.
Fortunately, thatâs not the case. Collaborator has very specific requirements when it comes to acceptance. Websites only get accepted if they meet these metrics.
The general rule is that the website must have at least 300 visits/ day or in worst-case scenarios, 5000 visits/month. If your website doesnât see 5000 visits/month, it wonât be accepted.
On top of that, other criteria such as niche, authority, design etc. are taken into account as well.
As for Telegram channels, only channels with a minimum of 500 subscribers are accepted.Â
On top of that, it also requires a minimum of 500 subscribers on a Telegram channel for it to be accepted.Â
Now, it does have a very long list of âbannedâ topics. This includes gambling, politics, drugs and so on. But hey, thatâs just to keep things legal and ethical.
Withdrawal fee
Like all other platforms that use a wallet/deposit system, there of course is a withdrawal fee.Â
Collaborator charges 15% on The withdrawal fee on Collaborator is a tad-bit high in my personal opinion. But hey, thatâs all this is, my personal opinion.Â
Support
Of course, any platform that offers fast and responsive support is desirable, isnât it? Collaborator has a 24X7 live-chat.
Let me be honest. The live-chat isnât exactly âinstantâ. They take a few hours to reply to queries. However, if youâre active and reply instantly upon receiving a reply the next replies are instant.
Of course you can also mail them if thatâs your preferred mode of communication.
Frequently Asked QuestionsÂ
Here are answers to a few questions that you may have:
#1. As a publisher, what is my review period?
If an advertiser accepts your job and has sent you a final draft of what he/she is going to publish, youâve 3 days to either accept or send it for further review.
#2. Are Collaborator.pro sites good?
As explained in this review, you get detailed & verified stats for each listed site. This helps you decide which site are good-enough for you and which youâd skip.
#3. Will I be scammed by the other party?
Thatâs just not possible. One of Collaborator.proâs primary jobs is to act as a mediator. In case the other party doesnât offer you what they should, they donât get paid. Your funds are only released to the other party once the job is successfully completed.Â
Collaborator.pro review-Final verdict
So, is Collaborator.pro the best content marketing platform in the industry? Well, it certainly is one of them if not âtheâ best.Â
I say that only because it has tons of green flags. Its current site & telegram database, easy UI, multiple ways to pay, affordable fee, instant withdrawals, insurance etc. do not leave much room for complaint, do they?Â
Of course, a lower fee would be much appreciated. But hey, Iâve paid either an equal or higher fee multiple times on other platforms so Iâm not complaining much.
Thatâs about it folks. Why donât you sign up? Itâs free, instant and will get you a much better idea of the platform than this Collaborator.pro review.Â
