Link intelligence,
demystified.
See who’s linking to your competitors and why it matters. No $129-a-month cockpit required. Enter a domain and get a clear map of their backlink network in seconds.
Rather start with your own site? See who links to your website.
Your competitors’ best links are a map. Most people never learn to read it.
Every link pointing at a competitor is a tested, repeatable tactic. It is a page that will probably link to you too. The enterprise tools have this data, but they bury it under dense dashboards, jargon, and a price tag built for agencies. We think that’s backwards.
From a domain to a briefing in three steps
No signup, no setup. Just the URL of any competitor you want to understand.
Every referring domain converges on the target, sized by authority and coloured by what’s new or lost.
A short summary tells you what’s driving their links, and which ones you can go get.
Charts that explain themselves
Every visual is labelled in clear terms and annotated with what it means. You never get a raw grid dumped on you.
Watch every referring domain flow in toward your competitor at a glance.
Spot links they just gained, and the ones quietly slipping away.
See what text people link with, and why the mix matters.
One honest score for how strong a link profile really is.
Not another cockpit dashboard
You get a written briefing that says what a competitor is doing and what to do about it, not a 12-tab export to decode on your own.
Every metric on the page defines itself. If a number does not change what you would do next, we leave it out.
The free checker runs a real backlink profile with no account. We say so when the free tool is all you need.
Or we go and get the links for you
The checker shows you the gap. If you would rather not spend the next six months closing it yourself, we do the work: a steady drip of placements from the sites already linking to your competitors, starting from wherever your profile actually is today.
Prefer to buy once? Gap reports from $9 and one-off foundation packs are on the pricing page.
Guides, comparisons & a course
No dark patterns. Ever.
What is Competitor Backlinks?
A focused tool for reading a competitor’s backlink profile and finding your gap: the sites linking to them but not to you. It does that one job clearly, without the price or complexity of a full enterprise SEO suite.
Do I need an account to try it?
No. The free backlink checker runs with no account and no credit card. Enter a competitor domain and you get their referring-domain map and top linking sites immediately.
What is free and what costs money?
Reading a competitor’s backlink map and seeing your gap is free, with no account. You pay when you want us to close that gap for you, which is $299 a month and cancellable any time, or when you want to do it yourself with the scored report and CSV, which is a one-time payment from $9.
How current is the backlink data?
It comes from a live, continuously crawled backlink index, so you see referring domains as they exist now rather than a stale monthly snapshot.
How is this different from Ahrefs or Semrush?
Those suites are powerful and priced for full-time SEOs. This tool does one thing well, reading competitor backlinks and finding your gap, and explains it in plain language for a fraction of the cost.
