LINK ANALYSIS

Backlink Gap Comparator

Sites that link to several of your competitors already cover your topic and may link to you too. This comparator takes referring-domain lists from any tool and lists the gap, starting with sites that link to every competitor.

Checks

What it checks

  • Domains from URLs or plain domain lists
  • Domains linking to competitors but not to you

GOOD TO KNOW

Common mistakes, an example and the limits.

Mistakes

Common mistakes

  • Pitching directories and link farms just because competitors are there.
  • Mixing exports from different tools without normalising them (this tool normalises domains).

Example

A worked example

Three competitors share 26 referring domains that do not link to you, including two Kenyan tech blogs and a university careers page.

Limits

Limitations

  • Your export is read in your browser and never uploaded.
  • Only as complete as the exports you paste.
