Free Wiki Submission Sites List 2027

Wiki submission means adding your link to an editable wiki page. It is one of the more abused tactics in link building and one of the least likely to work.

Short answer

This is the weakest category on the site, and the honest advice is to spend the time elsewhere.

Wiki submission means adding your link to an editable wiki. Wikipedia reverts promotional links quickly and marks all external links nofollow, so nothing is passed even when an edit survives. The open wikis that do not moderate are unmoderated precisely because nobody maintains them, and they are already saturated with spam.

This list has 18 wikis live on 2026-08-19. The section below explains why the count is low and why you should be selective about using it at all.

Why most wiki link building fails

Wikis are edited by communities that watch every change. Add a promotional link to Wikipedia and it will be reverted, usually within minutes, often automatically. Wikipedia links are nofollow in any case, so even a surviving edit passes nothing.

The open wikis that do not moderate are open precisely because nobody maintains them. Those pages are already full of spam links, which is the company your link would keep.

The one version that works

Become a genuine contributor to a wiki in your field. Fix errors, add sourced information, and build an edit history. Contributors who have earned standing can add a citation to their own work where it is genuinely the best available source, and it survives.

That takes months and it is not a link building tactic in any practical sense. If you want the honest summary: for most businesses, wiki submission is the least productive category on this site, and the time is better spent almost anywhere else.

How to read this table. DA, PA and Spam Score are real Moz figures from our own bulk checks. A dash means we have not run that domain yet, not that it scored zero, and we would rather show the gap than guess. Authority is our own 0 to 100 score derived from global popularity rank, and spam risk is Low for sites with a measurable audience and valid TLS. Every site here was also confirmed to load on 2026-08-19, which is the check DA cannot make: Moz still reports a healthy DA for services that shut down years ago, because it is computed from a link graph that remembers them.

A word on Spam Score. It counts how many spam-associated patterns a domain trips, not whether the site is bad. Large platforms full of user-generated pages trip a lot of them: the Internet Archive scores 60 percent here and is one of the most legitimate domains on the internet. Read a high score as a reason to look at the specific page you would be linked from, not as a reason to avoid the site.

Wikipedia links are nofollow and heavily policed. If a service offers you a Wikipedia backlink, they are describing an edit that will be reverted, and they know it.

Wiki submission sites: your questions answered

Only as a citation supporting a specific fact, and only if it is genuinely the best source available. Promotional links are reverted quickly, and Wikipedia external links are nofollow regardless.

Generally no. The moderated wikis remove promotional links and the unmoderated ones are already saturated with spam. It is among the weakest categories in link building.

Because most wiki sites either closed or locked down editing after years of spam. 18 of the 20 entries in the source data were still live when checked on 2026-08-19.

It is more futile than dangerous. Links get reverted or sit on abandoned spam pages that carry no weight. The real cost is the time.

Guest posting, original research that earns citations, and local business listings all produce better results for the same effort.

Only if it meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, which need substantial independent coverage. Pages created by or for the subject are usually deleted, and the links are nofollow anyway.

Wikipedia's are not. Some smaller open wikis are, which is exactly why those wikis are full of spam and worth nothing.

Become a genuine contributor first. Fix errors, add sourced information, build an edit history, and only then cite your own work where it is genuinely the best source.

If they are promotional, almost certainly, often within minutes and sometimes automatically. Moderated wikis watch every change.

Guest posting, original research that earns citations, and local business listings all produce more for the same effort. This is the weakest category on the site.
