Monitor Backlinks

What Monitor Backlinks is

Monitor Backlinks tracks changes in a backlink profile over time. Its dashboard keeps a record of backlink changes and lets users review them by individual backlink or referring domain. Regular email updates cover profile changes, and alerts about lost links help users notice when links disappear. Listed features also include historical backlink data, identification of new and lost links, anchor text reports, and competitor comparison. The wider SEOptimer backlink tools include research by URL and site backlink lookups, while SEOptimer also offers a free backlink checker described as a free version of its Premium Backlink Research Tool. Monitor Backlinks is a paid service with a 14-day trial, available on the web and through an API. SEOptimer describes its API as a way to build custom solutions using more than 100 data points. The White Label plan costs $29.25 a year, billed annually at $351, and covers 3 monitored sites, 50 site backlink lookups, and 2 additional users. White Label & Embedding costs $44.25 a year, billed annually at $531, and includes 10 monitored sites, 150 site backlink lookups, and 5 additional users. That latter plan lists webhook and Zapier integrations for its embeddable audit tool.
