Why Monitor Backlinks?
Backlinks are crucial to improving Search Engine Rankings.
But not all backlinks are good - low quality backlinks can actually do more harm than good.
That’s why it’s important to monitor backlinks to promote good links and remove bad ones.
See Your SEO Campaigns Paying Off
Sometimes it’s hard to identify if your initiatives have paid off. Has your outreach resulted in new links? Has your Digital PR been well syndicated?
SEOptimer’s Backlink Monitoring Tool gives you this insight by notifying you of New Links direct to your email and showing New and Lost Link progress live in the Backlink Change Dashboard.
We’ll also share the critical data behind each link such as its SEO strength, link type and follow status.
Recover Valuable Lost Links
You work so hard to gain links with outreach and link building campaigns - but what if one of these sites removes or changes your link?
SEOptimer provides a regular digest of backlink changes straight to your email so that you can respond quickly and get your link reinstated.
Identify and Fight Negative SEO
Negative SEO is a real thing and happens when competitors attack your site's SEO by pointing spammy backlinks to it.
But how are you supposed to know when negative links arrive?
Our Backlink Monitoring tool keeps you updated with a regular summary of new links to your site so that you can identify suspicious links and act quickly to disavow them.
Track Your Competitors to Find New Link Opportunities
Gaining links through cold link outreach is hard. Keeping track of your competitor link changes is a great guerilla tactic for identifying new links that may also be relevant to you.
Monitoring your competitor’s links is also a great way to gain a competitive edge by staying ahead of competitor’s announcements and product, strategy or marketing shifts in their business.
