Linkody
Linkody tracks link-building campaigns and monitors backlinks for a user’s domains and competitors. It refreshes link status every 24 hours and provides backlink metrics including Ahrefs Domain Rating, Moz DA and PA, Spam Score, Trust Flow, and Citation Flow. Its Link Intersect report identifies pages that link to competitors but not to the user’s site. A disavow tool helps identify potentially harmful backlinks and manage disavow rules. Imports support Linkody’s CSV format, Google Search Console, Ahrefs, and Moz. Reporting includes email and white-label PDF reports, though CSV and PDF export are unavailable during the free trial. Linkody is available on the web and through an API; REST API access for domains, competitors, and backlinks requires a paid subscription. The service has a free plan and a 30-day trial, with paid plans listed from $14.90/mo. Monthly plans range from Webmaster at $13.90 a month to Agency XL at $138.90 a month. Competitors count toward the website quota, but their backlinks do not count toward the monitored-link quota.
