Advanced Backlink Filtering
You can control the timeline for analysing link data – monthly, twice a month or every two months. This consumes your domain link index credits (1 per analysis). You can also filter huge volumes of link data by:
- Type of Site
- TLD (Top Level Domain), e.g. .Com; .fr or .co.uk websites only
- Country
- Link anchor text
- Influence score
- Title or URL
- Link Target URL
- Follow/No Follow
- Has Author
- Is Publisher
- Author’s Name
- Video
- Social Network
- Also Links to me

For example; filter by Link Target URL will allow you to discover and investigate all the backlinks to a specific page on a competitors’ website. This is really useful when you are going head to head with one or more competitors for top rankings and you want to ensure you have an edge.

FAQs about Backlink Analysis
Search engines assess the quality and profile of backlinks to algorithmically assess the quality and trust of your website. This data plays a key factor in their decision about which sites should rank and at which position.
We work in partnership with Majestic SEO, the largest independent provider of who links to whom on the web. We have been working together for over 10 years and believe their combination of fresh link data with our additional crawling, verification, categorisation and analysis gives you an unparalleled link data source.
Links from questionable sources are treated as untrusted by Google and other search engines and pose the risk of a significant reduction in rank. Simply use any of the advanced filters to check your backlink profile. For example, you may want to find backlinks with a low relevance and low influence score, or backlinks from countries you don’t do business in, or links with irrelevant anchor text.
