Pros and Cons
+ Pros
-
Clear UI with new/lost links, link types, and a proprietary link rating for quality assessment.
-
Built-in competitor backlink analysis and automated link-building ideas (e.g., sites linking to multiple competitors, broken competitor links).
-
CSV/PDF exports for reporting; weekly backlink data updates.
-
Free Backlink Checker (quick lookups), then scalable monitoring in paid plans.
− Cons
-
If you require the largest commercial link indexes, you’ll still want to cross-check with a heavyweight like Ahrefs/Semrush/Majestic. (See alternatives below.)
-
Backlink monitoring is paid-plan only (the free plan covers only limited checks).
Key features
-
Backlink Monitoring & Analysis: track new/lost links, broken targets, follow/nofollow, text vs image links; review link rating, source, target, discovery dates, and more. Export to CSV/PDF.
-
Competitor insights: view rivals’ backlinks to spot opportunities; compare profiles and progress.
-
Link-building ideas: automatic suggestions (sites linking to multiple competitors, broken competitor backlinks, sponsored content sources, top-ranked content in your niche).
-
Free Backlink Checker: quick domain/URL lookups with follow/nofollow ratios, referring domains, and a domain authority–style score.
-
Tool-request quotas per plan (daily checks across Seobility tools).
How to use (step-by-step)
-
Create/choose a project in Seobility.
-
Open Backlink Monitoring → add your domain. Seobility will update backlink data weekly.
-
Audit your profile: scan link rating, follow/nofollow mix, TLD/language distribution; export to CSV/PDF for stakeholders.
-
Spot issues: check the “lost” list and broken targets; fix pages or reclaim links.
-
Analyze competitors: add competitors; harvest prospects from multi-linked sites and broken competitor links.
-
Handle toxic links carefully: if you truly need to ignore spammy links, build a disavow file and upload it via Google’s Disavow Links Tool (outside Seobility). Use with caution.
FAQ
-
