The problem it solves

Keeping track of who links to your site, and who's stopped, means logging into a separate SEO tool and manually copying numbers into a spreadsheet. Without a regular check, you don't notice lost backlinks until your rankings have already dropped.

Who it fits

SEO professionals and digital marketers tracking a site's or client's link building progress.

How it works

  1. Running the check pulls your current backlink profile
  2. It compares against the last 30 days to find new and lost backlinks
  3. Top referring domains and anchor text are analyzed
  4. Daily and 60-day trend data is gathered
  5. Everything is organized into a Google Sheets report
What you get

New and lost backlinks tracked for you

Track new and lost backlinks and top referring domains, delivered as a ready-made spreadsheet report.

What you get

A Google Sheets report showing your backlink gains, losses, and trends.

What you need

An SE Ranking account and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
