Description
Backlink Vigil monitors backlinks you've already acquired. It checks whether each link is live, missing, or changed, including its anchor text, link type, and placement. Potential losses go through additional verification to reduce false alerts. Get email or Slack alerts, review a clear change history, and organize placements by project, builder, and campaign. Add links individually or in bulk. Free for up to 10 links; Pro supports unlimited links.
