Buyer or publisher: which profile should you choose?
On SEO Jungle, there's no choice to make between buyer and publisher: one single account lets you do both, with no profile activation and no switching from one mode to the other. Here's how the two uses break down.
Buying links
From your account, you can browse the media catalog, select the sites that match your strategy, and place an order for a sponsored article or a link insertion. You then track your orders under "My purchases." See also how to place your first order.
Selling links
Still from that same account, you can register your own sites and create offers in your publisher area, under "My sites" and "My offers." Orders you receive from buyers appear in "Orders received," and your earnings are tracked in "My earnings." See also how to submit your sites.
One account, no activation
There's no step that "activates" a buyer or publisher profile: you simply use the relevant sections depending on what you need at any given moment. Nothing stops you from ordering links for your own site in the morning and handling an order received on one of your sites in the afternoon, a bit like an explorer who hunts and cultivates at the same time.
Where to start?
If you don't yet have a site with strong traffic, start by exploring the catalog as a buyer. If you already have an established site, consider listing it for sale to generate extra income instead. Either way, both uses remain accessible at any time from your account, with no extra steps needed.
