How do I find what backlinks have disappeared?
-
I have seen a decrease in backlinks, how do I figure out which ones are no longer there?
-
it's 5 years using their historical data
-
I have been in contact with A href and they only go back 2 months do you know how far back Majestic goes?
-
it gives you all your lost backlinks as well (like ahrefs)
Link research tools can easily do this too.

Hi Niners52,
Rather than rely on an external tool to have found all of the URLs in a crawl and report them accurately, I would run a direct crawl using Screaming Frog.
There is a post on their blog which provides step by step instructions on how to use the tool to crawl a specific list of URLs.
You can only do this with the licensed version of Screaming Frog, but if you are not already using it, the cost is only 99 British pounds per year, and it is crazy useful for a thousand other things. A little more value for money than just subscribing to a more specific tool for just one month.
This way you will actually have a crawl result, not just a read from another tool.
Hope that helps,
Sha

If you want more data then you must pay for it.

I am looking at paying for an account for a month but it seems it only shows the last two months of what has been lost, I really need to go back about 6 months. is that possible?
-
You can create a free account. It's better than nothing
-
Is there a way to do it without a subscription?
-
http://ahrefs.com will show you the links you have lost.
-
ahrefs.com can show it to you

Are Sidebar Backlinks worth for SEO?
Hello! Let's use the following example: I have a blog (let's call it Blog A) and I find another blog in the same niche (this will be Blog B) that has higher DA and PA than mine. Will Google penalize me if the Blog B puts a link to my blog in their sidebar? Remember, the Blog A and Blog B are from the same niche. I ask this because Google says that links on sidebars appears in every page and in some pages the link may be useless. But if both blogs are from the same niche, there won't be pages where the links will be from different themes and with less relevance. So, is my thought correct: we can use sidebar links without caring about penalization ONLY if the blogs are from the same niche? Thanks in advance!

Good or Bad Backlinks
Hi All We are trying to go through all of our backlinks to see which links are good and which are bad. We are using two paid for tools to find our backlinks and sort them out, either good or bad. I have found that both tools have returned links as being good even though the links are not indexed by Google and have no page rank. Also we have found that both tools returns some links as good even though the links are pointing to a 404 page. Any advice on how to proceed would be appreciated.

Backlinks embedded in posts or backlinks in sidebar?
What's better? A backlink to my site, embedded into a blog post/article? Or a hardlink in the sidebar? The problem with links embedded inside articles, is that when the blog linking to me, gets updated, the articles disappear from first page and I lose the link from home page. How do you deal with this? I also read this: "The best link you can get is from a site ranking #1 for the keyword you want to rank for. It would be great to have the #1 site for a desired keyword linking me even if they are a PR 0 site." Is this right? Thx in advance.

Question to SEO experts about backlink tracking
Hi, could you recommend the best tool that you use to keep track of all the backlinks you have. I'd imaging there is a good software or website which lists all your backlinks with all relevant info for each link (PR of the linking site, authority level etc) thanks in advance for sharing.
