So, here’s what SEO SpyGlass does for you

With SEO SpyGlass, you can easily handle one of the major SEO tasks — backlink research. Over the years, the software has been enhanced with breakthrough functionality to provide you with most complete and accurate link profiles of both your site and your competitors’ sites.

SEO SpyGlass’s outstanding features: find out how the software helps you craft the smartest link building strategies to dominate online.

1: Discovers backlinks the site has

Check the exact backlinks your site has — or spy on your competitor’s backlinks with SEO SpyGlass. In a matter of minutes, this smart tool will calculate the total number of backlinks the site has and show the exact URL of each and every backlink. Since today’s search engines place a huge value on links, this is the number one factor for ranking well.

2: Gets loads of links from both external sources and exclusive in-house backlink database.

SEO SpyGlass is the only link research tool in the industry to unearth your or your competitors’ backlinks from two immensely powerful types of sources:

3: Allows you to see the Alexa Traffic Rank of every backlink

The Alexa Traffic Rank gives you a traffic estimate of the sites that are sending visitors to your competition. Now you can uncover your competitor’s biggest traffic sources and tap into them yourself!

4: Shows you if your competition are listed in the Web’s best directories

SEO SpyGlass will show you whether or not your competitor has backlinks from the DMOZ or the Yahoo! Directory. These directories are so authoritative, you will get a rankings boost just from a single link from them.

5: In-house backlink database

Get hands on SEO SpyGlass’s very own and exclusive backlink database and use it as one of sources to search for your site’s backlinks! Updated daily, the Backlink Database for SEO SpyGlass has grown to embrace trillions of links and it keeps expanding.

6: Runs tasks on autopilot if you choose

You can set SEO SpyGlass just once, and it will run certain tasks regularly or on a specified date. And you may only come to look at the results whenever it’s convenient.

7: Let’s you easily see if your competitors are buying site-wide links

SEO SpyGlass will show you the total number of your competitor’s backlinks coming from the same IP addresses (read: from the same site). If a sizable percentage of their links come from the same site, this means they are buying or otherwise obtaining site-wide links. A site-wide link is a link from many (or all) pages of a single site. Site-wide links can be immensely powerful in achieving better rankings.

8: Shows you which anchor texts and page titles work for your competition

SEO SpyGlass will tell you the exact anchor texts and anchor URLs your competitors are using (anchor text being the clickable part of the link). Including your primary keywords into your anchors is crucial for ranking well for this keyword. Now you can find out which anchors work for your competition, and which keywords they are using with just a few clicks.

9: Supports working through a proxy

If your machine is behind a proxy, there’s no problem working with SEO SpyGlass. This great software fully supports working from behind a proxy, so you can still analyze your sites without problems. Just configure your proxy in the Preferences.

Runs on several platforms and speaks multiple languages

10: External sources

SEO SpyGlass currently supports 145 international and local search engines so you can get backlink data and analyze your competition using the engine that matters most to you (or all of them!).

The currently supported SEs include Google, Yahoo! and Bing and many of their localized versions, as well as regional search engines, like Yandex, Seznam or Baidu.

11: Finds all backlinks that bring traffic

With SEO SpyGlass, you can find all backlinks pointing to your website according Google Analytics, i.e. the exact links that bring real visitors to your website.

To enable this feature, simply choose Google Analytics as a backlink source: Spots traffic-generating backlinks

12: Let’s you figure out where your competitors are buying links from

The software will quickly show you how many of your competitor’s backlinks come from homepages of other sites, rather than internal pages. 9 times out of 10, this is a dead giveaway of paid links. Oftentimes, you can even see how much they are paying per link by visiting the homepage in question.

13: Checks how many Visits each of these links bring

What is more, SEO Spyglass lets you instantly view the exact number of Visits a specific backlink brings.

With this priceless feature, you can not only find backlinks adding SEO value to your site, but also those bringing you visitors. This way, you get the full picture of what backlinks in particular work best for your biz niche.

14: Tells you if your competitors are leveraging the social media to rank better

SEO SpyGlass will reveal to you how many of your competitor’s backlinks come from forums and blogs. If they are tapping into social media for traffic and links, you can go ahead and do the same.

15: Shows you the age of every site that links to your competition

SEO SpyGlass will uncover the exact age of every Website linking back to your competitor. This lets you instantly see if they are getting links from established, authoritative sites. Google and Yahoo! in particular pay close attention to age of every site, and will give you a rankings boost if you get links from sites that have been around longer than others.

16: Shows the BEST keywords to optimize the site for

Finding the best keywords is a quick and easy process, now that you’ve got SEO SpyGlass to help you. The program will find the keywords — and keyphrases that will help dramatically increase your traffic. Thanks to our software, you will discover the exact anchor texts the #1 site owners are using.

Moreover, SEO SpyGlass will sort out keywords, so that you can see the total number of times keywords appear within the anchor and title text of their backlinks (that is, the anchor and title keyword density).

17: Groups your links to conveniently analyze large data volumes

Using SEO SpyGlass’s advanced grouping options, you can neatly organize all backlinks in your project into a tree-like catalogue by backlink domain and other key backlink factors.

This feature saves you a whole lot of time when analyzing large data volumes, letting you see in a glance where all the backlinks are coming from and quickly search through hundreds of entries in your project.

18: Let’s you update backlink data over time

As soon as you’ve got all the analytical data at your disposal, you may use SEO SpyGlass to create a report where all these data will be nicely arranged and commented on.

It’s written for absolute beginners, yet reveals things professional search engine optimizers make their living off.

19: Makes it possible to customize reports

22: Includes customizable Workspace filters

This feature lets you conveniently hide the information you don’t want on your screen right now, and only display the results you’re interested in. Example: Only show backlinks from Google and Yahoo! which have a high link value, and hide all other backlinks. Nice, eh?

Try this feature, you won’t know how you managed without it! And, of course, you can define your own Workspace filters, as many and as complex as you need.
