Definition
Linkody is a tool specialized in backlink monitoring and tracking. It automatically checks the status of all your inbound links daily, alerting you in real time when a new link is detected or an existing link is lost, modified, or switched to nofollow. The tool also analyzes referring domain metrics (authority, spam score) and allows you to generate disavow files for Google. Linkody offers a simple interface focused on the essentials of link monitoring, without the superfluous features of large SEO suites. It is a particularly useful tool for sites investing in link building who want to protect their link investment. Its integration with Google Analytics and Search Console enriches the analysis with traffic data.
