What it is
SEO SpyGlass is desktop software for finding, monitoring, analyzing and comparing backlinks for link-building research. It uses the WebMeUp database for fresh backlink data and evaluates link quality against more than 50 SEO factors. Users can compare backlink profiles, investigate competitors’ link strategies and examine top-10 Google rankers for link opportunities. Its Anti-Penalty Link Audit flags harmful links, assigns penalty-risk factors and can export links to a disavow file. Backlink data exports to CSV, TSV or XLSX, while customizable white-label reports are available as PDF or HTML. A scheduler can run link checks at specified times, and Link-Assistant.COM provides lifetime customer support. The free plan covers up to 1,100 backlinks per website across unlimited websites, but does not include data export or HTML/PDF reports. PROFESSIONAL costs $129/year and includes unlimited backlinks and comparison of six websites. ENTERPRISE costs $259/year and adds comparison of 11 websites, exports and reports. SEO SpyGlass is available for Linux, macOS and Windows.
