Questions, answered

What is backlink analysis used for?

Backlink analysis helps you understand which sites link to a domain or page, which links have stronger rank, spam, broken, lost, or nofollow signals, and where competitors are earning authority.

Can I check competitor backlinks in SEO Scaler?

Yes. Enter any domain, yours or a competitor's, and pull its backlinks, referring domains, and top linked pages.

How does backlink research connect to SEO planning?

Backlinks tell you whether a page ranks on content or on authority. Check them before targeting a keyword to judge whether you can realistically outrank the incumbents, and check a competitor's profile to find sites that might link to you too.
