GuestPostCRM vs LinkHunter (2026): which should you pick?

Pick GuestPostCRM if

• Fits if you sell or buy guest posts and keep publishers, prices and orders in spreadsheets
• Works for small agencies, as Starter includes 3 users

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if your inbox is busy: actions cost 1 to 11 or more credits, and the free plan has 2,000 credits and 1 user
• Pricey if you want Moz metrics or API automation, which start at $39 and $69 a month
• Watch out: white-label setup is $500 once, from Professional, and extra users are $5 a month each
• Not for you if your mail isn't in Gmail, as Gmail is the email connection named
• Skip it if you need sites to pitch, as it manages deals rather than finding prospects

Pick LinkHunter if

• Fits if you run targeted outreach and want prospecting and sending in one tool
• Works for small agencies on 500 to 5,000 emails a month

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you send more than 500 emails or 7 campaigns a month, the Starter caps
• Skip it if you want automatic follow-up on Starter, because it starts at $99
• Watch out: phone support, training and onboarding are Agency-only at $199
• Watch out: the site footer reads 2021 and no annual pricing is shown
• Not for you if you want a free plan, as only the 14-day trial is free

GuestPostCRM

• Every automated action uses credits, from 1 for a label move to 11 or more for processing an order, so busy inboxes use up allowances fast.
• The email connection named is Gmail; sign-in is with a Google or Microsoft account.
• Moz metrics start at Growth ($39 a month) and full API automation at Professional ($69 a month).
• White-label setup costs $500 once on Professional and above, and extra users are $5 a month each.

LinkHunter

• Plans are capped by outreach emails per month (500, 2,000 or 5,000) and by new campaigns.
• Automatic follow-up and Semrush metrics start on the Small Business plan; Starter shows Moz metrics only.
• Phone support, team training and onboarding are limited to the Agency plan.
• The footer of the site reads 2021, and the site publishes no pricing for annual billing.

GuestPostCRM

Email sorting by sender and intent

Identifies whether a message comes from a brand, agency, publisher, reseller or link builder, and whether it is a request, price question, negotiation or payment.

AI replies and follow-ups

Drafts replies from the whole email thread, sends first responses to qualified inquiries and keeps following up until someone answers.

Offers, deals and orders

Accepted offers become deals in one click and then orders that track the site, requirements, documents, delivery date and live link status.

Invoices and payment reminders

Creates invoices from approved orders, tracks paid, pending and overdue status and reminds clients before and after due dates.

Live link monitoring

Tracks published guest posts and link placements, their live URLs and publication status, from one dashboard.

Moz site metrics

From the Growth plan, pulls DA, DR, spam score and traffic for sites so offers can be judged inside the CRM.

LinkHunter

Finds relevant websites, shows an SEO value for each, previews sites inside the tool and downloads lists to a spreadsheet.
