Hey Product Hunters 😊 A special shout-out goes to @chrismessina for this hunt 👍 I'm Aleh, Co-Founder/ CMO at SEO PowerSuite and Awario. It’s great to be back! Today is a special day for us as we’ve come a long way to bring our new product to you – SEO PowerSuite Backlink API, one of the largest backlink databases available on the market. Behind this database, there are years of devoted work and challenges. But we continue pushing the boundaries and constantly seeking ways to improve the performance and enrich the database with new data points. We use the API in our own SEO tools. Now you can integrate it in your software and use the data any way you like. How does it work? API works like a two-way communication. The workflow looks as follows: 1) You need to form a command. 2) In the command, specify the data you would like to get (number of backlinks, list of backlinks, InLink Rank, historical data, etc). See the full list of available commands here: https://www.link-assistant.com/u... 3) Add your unique access key (API key). 4) Make an API request. You can: - paste the command URL right into a browser's address bar - use the IMPORTXML function to make calls via Google Sheets 5) Instantly get your data back and process it further. Who would need an API? ✅ Digital agencies This huge backlink database will help your clients reach the top in their niches. As a digital agency, you may be interested in using our dataset while undertaking research, analyzing competitors, creating digital strategies and PR campaigns for your clients, boosting SEO, managing brand reputation, or even adding this data into your reports. ✅ Software developers Our backlink index could be used to power any number of third-party software solutions, from basic backlink checkers to comprehensive SEO tools. ✅ Data scientists One of the largest backlink indexes on the market might be of interest to anyone looking to support their research, be it for commercial or academic purposes. Things you can do with the API: ✅ Competition analysis. Learn the full story of your competitors’ marketing strategy, business partnerships, and market share. ✅ SEO keyword research. Use competitor backlink strength to predict how stiff the SEO competition in any keyword niche is. ✅ Content ideation. Use link popularity to identify the most trendy, buzzworthy, and likely-to-spread content types and topics. ✅ Ad placement. Follow the flow of backlinks to identify thematically relevant websites and place your links, content, and promo materials. ✅ Campaign monitoring. Use backlink profile growth to measure marketing campaign success. ✅ Website comparison. Check any website for its authority (i.e. the number of high-quality incoming links). ✅ White label usage. You can use SEO PowerSuite Backlink API to power your own tools and re-sell our data within your software and client reports. ✅ Non-profit projects. You can use our data for FREE for academic research or other non-profit projects. Obviously, there are many more use cases. I’m sure this crawling solution can serve your business in more ways. 💎 Currently, the tool crawls 5 million web pages every minute. 💰 This solution is budget friendly. The proprietary data mining and processing technologies let us maintain the ecosystems with just 1/8th of our competitors’ CPU power. Thus we don’t have to pass inflated maintenance costs onto our customers, and you get the data cheap. It’s a total win-win!

Very nice, I'll get in touch regarding the free demo.

Is it possible to test the API before purchasing the paid plan?

Well done, Aleh! Been using powersuite tools for over 5 years and would love to check this API for custom reporting.

Yes! Finally, I've been waiting for this since you guys announced it, great work!

We've been using this backlink API for our project, and it's definitely a good source of SEO data for your dashboards and reports. First, it's budget-friendly (previously we used another option, and it was much more expensive). Second, the reports we present to our clients now contain more details, as the API collects so many different backlink parameters. Third, it'a a real time-saver. Thank you folks!

Excellent idea - I am calling an idea because I haven't try it to call it a product. I wish you had a trial plan (50 free links or something) were I could try the product. Thank you for sharing and congrats on launch! 🚀

This looks really useful, and I am a big fan of SEO Powersuite overall. Your software is reliable and offers unique features like competitor comparison data features and your link management tool. I first discovered your software back in 2012, and it's great to see that you're enhancing your software with a backlinks API. This is really cool. Best of luck with the launch.

I see this is tagged with "Free Options" but there is no mention of a free plan on your website. Is the site or the tag incorrect?

Great job, Aleh and the team! It's amazing to see how far SEO PowerSuite has come!

Looks very promising! Would be happy to give it a try.

Super useful!! Congrats on your launch ;)

Congratulations! Can't wait to try it out!

Congrats on the fantastic launch, Aleh. 💪🙂🙌

I absolutely love SEO Powersuite! Congrats on the launch!

Great product and great support!

I am using DashThis to pull information into our dashboards for clients. I am super excited to check this out to pull in BackLink data right into my reports! I love SEO Backlink SPY - but having this API would be super helpful. Thanks for your amazing contributions to digital marketing!

Congrats on launch

Looks mighty. Good luck with your launch!

This is an absolute gamechanger. Congrats!
