What can be achieved with link alerts?
Link Alerts help you monitor the backlinks your site acquires over time. It helps you build a link history so you can monitor your link growth.
Here are the three main use cases for Link Alerts (LA):
Negative SEO Prevention
Competitive backlink analysis
automated tracking
Link Alerts (LA) monitors your backlinks and automatically notifies you via email of new links. Our unique SEO metrics help you assess the quality of new links at a glance.
Negative SEO Prevention
Your business depends on your website traffic. Nowadays, all kinds of bad linking practices can cause problems and loss of traffic. There are even companies that carry out "negative SEO" attacks against websites like yours.
But you don't have enough time and staff to track all those links. With Link Alerts, we help you monitor your website and let you know when a problem arises.
Link Alerts automatically scans the web for all new links to your website.
We also flag really bad links that could be part of a negative SEO attack. You can easily export those bad links for future uploading to Google to be ignored (rejected) or sent to your SEO team for review at Link Detox®.
Competitive backlink analysis
Your competitors are getting links like crazy! They run their own outreach campaigns on a scale 10 times larger than yours. However, you still want to outsmart them. Right? Now, who has time to do backlink checks every day and compare the differences? We do: Link alerts are like Google alerts for links!
Do you want to analyze the new backlinks that your competitors have?
Link Alerts is the answer to your problem.
Once set up, link alerts let you know when and where your competitors got new links. You can quickly decide if it's worth following up and trying to get that link (or a similar one). By using our powerful metrics like LRT Power*Trust™, you can easily see which links are valuable and contact the site owner right away.
And you know what's best: if you call a blogger a couple of HOURS after he's written about your competitor, he'll still be a potential customer. Congratulate him on the great post and try to clarify why YOUR site should be linked there as well. This works!

Quick overview of results
Link Alerts histograms show all the usual metrics as you would expect. You can filter Follow Links, Do Not Follow Links, Mentions, etc. For example, if this is your site, you might want to adjust the filter to see only [LinkNotFound] results. In this case, the links were not found and you may want to explore further and try to reset them. Similarly, you can use Link Alerts to find brand mentions that you want to change to links.
Get all the detailed data about your new links
The link alert results table shows all the data for new links, including the date we found the link. The table can be fully manipulated with filters to display the data that is of most interest.
Advanced use of link alerts during manual removal of Google penalties
In the case of manual action by Google, you will need to run a Link Detox report and generate a disavow file. After uploading your disavow file, you must write a reconsideration request to Google, asking them to remove your Manual Action.
There is usually a period of a few weeks before Google's spam team responds. You are likely to come across some bad links during this Google disavow process, which could ruin all your good work. By setting Link Alerts, you will be notified of any new links and can deal with them accordingly.
You can mention in the reconsideration request that you will visit Google Search Console (Google Webmaster Tools) and Google Analytics daily and adjust your disavow file, if necessary.
