# Link Profile Report

Visualize and analyze your backlink profile, and compare with competitors.

Updated over a week ago

The Link Profile Report gives a visual and interactive overview of your backlink portfolio. It helps identify patterns, risks, and opportunities at a glance through comprehensive charts and breakdowns.

## What you'll see

The report includes the following data points:

**Top anchors**  
  
The 10 most used anchor texts by number of links. Helps identify overused or brand-focused anchors, which can signal over-optimization or strong brand awareness.

**Top anchor terms**  
  
The 10 most common words appearing in anchor texts. Useful for keyword distribution analysis and discovering dominant thematic patterns.

**Ahrefs DR**: Distribution of your backlinks by Ahrefs Domain Rating (0–100). A higher share of high-DR domains signals a stronger, more authoritative backlink profile. Fetched automatically from Ahrefs — no account required.

**Moz metrics**  
  
- **Domain Authority (DA)**: Indicates the overall strength of linking domains.
- **Page Authority (PA)**: Measures the authority of the specific linking pages.
- **MozRank**: Reflects the link popularity of the linking pages. These distributions help spot the quality mix of your backlink sources.

**Spam Score**  
  
Distribution of links by Moz Spam Score. Highlights the potential risk of penalties if many links are from spammy domains.

**Google Index status**  
  
Shows whether the source pages are indexed. Links from unindexed pages may have little to no SEO value.

**Link type**  
  
Breakdown of links by type (text vs. image). Text links generally carry more SEO weight.

**Top TLDs**  
  
The 10 most frequent top-level domains (e.g., .com, .org). Useful for spotting geographical relevance, domain diversity, or footprint patterns.

**IP geolocation**  
  
A map showing the distribution of links by server IP location. Useful for detecting unnatural geographic clustering or local market penetration.

**Top landing pages**  
  
The 10 most linked-to pages on your site. Helps identify content that attracts backlinks or may need optimization.

**Rel attribute**  
  
Distribution by rel values (e.g., follow, nofollow, sponsored). A well-balanced mix is desirable to maintain a natural backlink profile and avoid suspicion of manipulation.

**Top class C IPs**  
  
The 10 most frequent class C IPs. Clustering here could reveal PBNs or shared hosting risks.

**Top referring domains**  
  
The 10 domains with the most backlinks. Useful for relationship management and backlink source analysis.

Most chart elements are clickable. Clicking displays the list of associated links for deeper inspection.

## Filters

You can refine the entire report using these filters:

- **Rel attribute** (e.g., follow, nofollow)
- **Disavowed / Not disavowed**
- **Status** (e.g., OK, error, lost)

## CSV exports

The following elements are exportable to CSV (including the full list, not just top 10):

- Anchors
- Anchor terms
- TLDs
- IP geolocation
- Landing pages
- Class C IPs
- Referring domains

## Compare with competitors  
  
The dropdown lets you switch from viewing a single domain’s profile to comparing it side-by-side with its competitors. This view highlights key differences in:

- Anchor term strategy
- Authority (Ahrefs DR, Moz DA, Moz PA, MozRank) distribution
- Spam Score risks
- Link types (text vs. image)
- TLD diversity
- Link origin countries
- Link attributes (follow/nofollow, etc.)

This comparison helps you identify gaps and opportunities in your backlink strategy. For example, if a competitor has stronger authority distribution or more geographic diversity, you might prioritize acquiring links from similar sources. Or, if your anchor terms are overly concentrated, it may signal over-optimization.

## Summary

The Link Profile Report is ideal for quickly assessing the structure and quality of your backlink profile. With interactive graphs, advanced filters, and side-by-side comparisons, it’s a powerful tool for SEO audits, competitive analysis, and link strategy refinement.
