Using the Link Intersect Report to find link opportunities

Find pages linking to competitors but not to you with Linkody’s Link Intersect Report. Uncover high-value link prospects.

Updated over a week ago

The Link Intersect Report helps you identify high-value pages that are linking to your competitors but not to you. These pages are excellent link-building prospects, especially if they reference multiple competitors.

What the report shows

This report lists pages that link to your competitors, ordered by the number of distinct competitor links they contain.

For each referring page, you'll see:

• Page URL
• Page title
• Number of distinct competitors the page links to
• Number of distinct links to competitors
• Number of distinct follow links to competitors
• Ahrefs DR (Ahrefs Domain Rating)
• Moz DA (Domain Authority)

When a page links to several competitors, it’s often a listicle, roundup, or resource page, making it a great candidate to reach out to for inclusion.

Exploring competitor links

Clicking on the number of links reveals which competitors are being linked from that page. This helps you evaluate how relevant or natural a link to your site would be.

Shared backlinks visual indicators

Pages and domains already linking to you are marked visually:

• A single green mark indicates that the referring domain already links to you.
• A double green mark indicates that the specific page already links to you.

This makes it easy to spot which opportunities you’ve already captured and which ones remain open.

Adding prospect links

Clicking the star icon to the right of any link adds it as a prospect link, making it easy to track and follow up as part of your outreach.

Using filters

The “Sharing” filter now offers a simple binary choice:

• Prospects (not linking to you) – the default view, showing only pages that don’t link to you yet
• All pages (linking to you or not) – showing every referring page, whether or not it already links to you

You can also narrow the list down with additional filters:

• A minimum number of competitors, to focus on pages that link to several of your competitors
• A Follow / Nofollow filter, to show only follow or nofollow links
• Ahrefs DR and Moz DA range sliders, to focus on the most authoritative opportunities

This makes it easier to prioritize pages for outreach.

Summary

The Link Intersect Report helps you:

• Spot valuable link-building opportunities
• Identify resource pages that link to competitors but not to you
• Focus your outreach where you’re most likely to get a link

It’s a practical, data-driven way to grow your backlinks by targeting pages that already show willingness to link to similar content.
