I am looking for a software to keep track of the back links or link building

[RyanNewman]

Hi Guys,

I am very new hear. I just joined. I have a few websites that I need to manage. I am looking for a software that will allow me to manually add the links that I have been able to acquire. It would also be a bonus if it could search for the links to my site and to see if its still active. Because I have a freelancer working a few hours a week on link building and I need to keep track of the links. I am looking for something simple and good. Any suggestions?

By the way, I used Raven Tools many years ago, and it had this feature. But since joining Moz, I don't want to be paying for 2 subscriptions. And I don't know if Raven still has this feature.

Your suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

You could just use excel and/or google sheets to keep track of your indexed and not indexed urls. It's not very elegant but should work. Here a useful article on the topic.

Hi GR,

Thank you so much, this helps a lot.

Ryan, in the Backlink Audit, there is a button Add backlinks, there you add your links created and/or not found by SEMrush.

Hi GR,

I have come across and used SEM Rush briefly a number of years ago. However, I don't remember SEM Rush having a feature that would allow me to manually add a new link I just acquired from a blog or a friends website as an example. Does it do this?

Thanks.

Hello Ryan!

From the tools that I know, use and/or used, what you are looking for is what SEMrush offers, its backlinks crawler is not the best, but can be hugely improved by adding a Majestic account.
Before you decide for SEMrush, be sure to watch all their videos and tutorials, its a really complete suite and it may help you in other projects. Take a look here: Kwnoledge Base - SEMrush

For backlinks discovery, the top 3 tools are ( IMO, in this order): ahrefs, majestic, Moz OpenSite Explorer.

Hope it helps.
Best Luck.
GR
