Each listing shows an estimated turnaround time, displayed as "Approx. X working days TAT" on the result card. Check it before adding a placement to your cart, especially if you're working to a deadline.

Publisher: this is the biggest factor. Some publishers have editorial teams that turn submissions around the same day; others take several days. The estimate reflects each publisher's typical pace, but individual orders can vary.

Link type: link insertions are usually faster than guest posts, because the publisher adds your link to existing content rather than reviewing and publishing a new article.

Content: if you provide your own content, the clock starts when you submit it, not when you place the order. If you order content from MeUp's copywriting team, the turnaround includes writing time. If the publisher writes it, you'll be asked to review their article before it goes live, so a quick review keeps things moving.

Niche: sensitive niches sometimes take a little longer, because publishers apply extra editorial review.
