Backlink Check Agent Skill

Backlink Check

Workflow

• Source. Use the workspace's DataForSEO Backlinks tools (native__get_provider_docs, provider dataforseo, for exact request shapes): summary for the profile, referring_domains for the domain list, anchors for anchor distribution. If DataForSEO backlinks aren't exposed, fall back to a connected ahrefs or semrush provider; if neither, stop and say which connection is missing — never fabricate link counts.
• Target profile. Pull summary + top ~100 referring domains by rank for the user's domain: total backlinks, referring domains, dofollow share, authority distribution.
• Competitor (if named). Same pulls for the competitor. Compute the link gap: strong domains linking to them but not to the user — that's the outreach list.
• Quality read. Flag: spammy anchor patterns (exact-match commercial anchors at scale), link velocity spikes, a profile dominated by low-authority domains.
• Traffic cross-check (own site only). google_analytics__runRawReport — referral sessions by source; note which linking domains actually send visitors.

Output

Verdict first (profile strength in one paragraph, and the gap vs the competitor if asked), then: profile summary table, top referring domains, anchor distribution, and — when a competitor was given — the link-gap outreach list (domain, authority, page linking to competitor). All third-party numbers labeled as index estimates.
