I built a free backlink intelligence skill for AI agents (no Ahrefs subscription needed)

Описание и применение

Создана бесплатная «backlink‑radar»‑команда, позволяющая AI‑агентам получать данные о ссылках из открытых источников и проводить аудит SEO без подписок.

Задача

SEO guides recommend checking competitors’ backlinks, but tools like Ahrefs or Semrush require paid subscriptions, blocking access for side projects and early‑stage sites.

Результат

The skill enables AI agents to query backlink data from free sources, perform on‑page SEO audits, and optionally access a paid placement directory, eliminating the need for costly subscriptions.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Drop the backlink‑radar folder into the agent’s skills directory or paste SKILL.md into a system prompt.
• 2. Ask the agent queries such as "Who links to stripe.com? Give me referring domains." or "Link‑gap analysis: my site vs two competitors."
• 3. The skill retrieves data from Common Crawl, Google Search Console, and Open PageRank, and returns observed links with limitations noted.
• 4. Optionally, query the Backlink Hub MCP server for paid placement opportunities via the provided JSON configuration.

Доказательства

Backlink data shouldn't cost $99/month.

Источник

Common Crawl — the largest public web crawl, with a free web‑graph dataset

Источник

Drop the folder into your agent's skills directory (or paste SKILL.md into a system prompt), and ask: "Who links to stripe.com? Give me referring domains."

Источник

It also ships a 19-check on-page SEO + GEO audit (title/meta/canonical/schema, plus AI-engine readiness: robots.txt AI-bot stance, llms.txt, SSR content) — zero API keys required.

Источник

Free sources give you observed links, not a complete index. Common Crawl lags weeks to months.
