Backlink Monitor
Know when a backlink disappears or loses SEO value.
Track expected source URLs and receive alerts when backlinks are lost, changed to nofollow, become noindexed, or stop loading.
| Source URL | Status | Link Type | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|
| dev.to/r/startups | Active | Dofollow | 2h ago |
| medium.com/@seo | Lost | Not found | 1h ago |
| indiehackers.com | Active | Nofollow | 3h ago |
| producthunt.com | Noindex | Dofollow | 5h ago |
What gets monitored
Every link, checked from multiple angles.
Backlink presence
Check whether your link still exists on the source page. Know within hours if it was removed.
Link type changes
Detect when a dofollow link becomes nofollow, sponsored, or UGC. Know exactly what changed and when.
Page availability
Know when the source page goes down, returns 404, or times out. A dead page passes zero link value.
Noindex detection
Catch meta robots and X-Robots-Tag noindex directives. A noindexed page contributes nothing to SEO.
