What is the best link risk software
-
Hi there. I want to buy/subscribe to the best link risk software I can find.
We are in the UK. Link Risk has been recommended to me. I specifically want a package that will allow me to check content hosts before we commit.
Can anyone help with comments suggestions please?
Thanks

Hi Karen
If you drop us an email - hello @ linkrisk.com i will arrange for a trial account so you can give LinkRisk a try
Maria - You are 100% correct - No tool will get you to the finish line - If we can get people 75-80% there then a manual review to eliminate false positives then you are on the right track - You would not believe what we see disavowed!
Alex - I would love to see a list of the 22 link sources - We have hunted far and wide and we did not get to 22
Happy to be proven wrong though - Also happy to answer any questions any of you may have
Thanks
Gareth (it is Paul's name on the account!)

Thanks everyone, great advice. I know LinkRisk is £149 per month. I will look at LinkDetox.
We always do a manual review but a couple lately have caught us by surprise, I don't want to take any risks.
Have a great holiday weekend

I'd recommend http://www.linkdetox.com/ from Link Research Tools. It pulls in backlink data from 20+ sources to which you can add your own data, and it categorises links based on a risk rating.
I'm in the UK too - they're based in Austria (I think) and the support is always pretty quick to respond (usually within a couple of hours).
I haven't used Link Risk so can't compare, but a colleague tells me it doesn't pick up as much data (and is more expensive).
Edit - to add to Marie's comment, I agree that links should always be reviewed manually whatever tool is used!

I'm not a huge fan of any of the tools out there right now. I think that any of them can be useful combined with a thorough manual review. But, I see far too many people who just run an automated report and upload the results to their disavow. I've seen so many false positives and negatives that it's quite scary! But then I might be biased considering that I do manual reviews.

Hiya,
Don't know about the best but some resources are:
https://www.majesticseo.com/reports/neighbourhood-checker
First two are free and combine with a good look at back links through e.g majestic SEO or Ahrefs you can get an idea.
Hope that helps.

Sitewide links
Hi there, We operate about a dozen websites that are part of the same parent company. All these websites are in the same vertical, and link among each other in the footer section. The anchor for each link is the brand name, so we are merely doing it to show what other products the parent company has to offer. My question is: do you think this is still advisable, or it might trigger a penalty? Also, what would you choose between: Sitewide footer links from each site to the other sites. A single footer link on the homepage from each site to the other sites. A presentation page on each website, one click away from the homepage, which presents the company's other websites. Thanks.

Link Building - Affiliate Link Programs
I'm getting some conflicting information when researching this... I want to create the most organic link building strategy that not only gets high authority sites linking to a website, but relevant websites. I'm creating an affiliate link program where I link to partner and affiliate companies, who in turn link back to me. The question is where to put these links. I was initially thinking of putting them in the footer so they add credibility to every page, and in turn ask my affiliates to do the same thing. However; some sources say that Google no longer looks at links in the footer section. Is it true that Google doesn't count links in footer sections? And do you have any tips on creating this Affiliate Link Program?

How to beat This with Links?
Hello, So i am trying to beat this website gujratdetectives.com/ with a new website which has no backlinks as of now.
Link Building | | hardik_hrc
Now, I checked in open explorer that this site has many moderate level links. No high authority links but the problem is these links they all have title as the search keyword "detective in Gujarat" so maybe this is why this site rests on the top of this search keyword. So if building authority links into a different domain(Not detective related) with very high PR but WITHOUT title of relevancy. Anchor text would be the keyword but not the title of page. So the question is will those authority sites beat this gujratdetectives.com/ ???0 -

Too many external links vs linking root domains - good or bad?
Hi guys, After the latest Linkscape update, we noticed that our website have 424,671 external links with 4,395 linking root domains, so roughly 100 links/domain. Does Google consider this to be a negative thing or we do not need to worry about it. Many thanks. David

Linking from Blogs
Hi I like to link from blogs on similar keywords on a regular basis but I am thinking about changing tactics as it can appear monotonous and un natural. What are peoples experiences in linking from blogs ?

Link Ratio
Does Google (or other search engines) penalize websites if they have a too many inbound links from a single domain? (Say for instance, I have 500 inbound links, and 400 of them are from one root domain.)
