Majestic

Site Explorer Summary

As the name implies, the Site Explorer Summary page summarises critical stats for backlink profiles, referring domains, anchor text and other more specific information on inbound links.

Headlining this report are Trust Flow, Citation Flow, Topical Trust Flow and two charts; Link Graph and Link Profile. Link Graph visualises the link neighbourhood of the target website. Link Profile captures the Trust Flow of every backlink to the page or Site analysed, presenting this information on a scatter plot.

Topics

Majestic uses over 800 topics to classify pages through their link relationship. The Topics report compliments the Topics view presented on the Site Explorer Summary.

Majestic associates Topics to pages influenced by both External and Internal linking. The Topics report differs from this normal view in that it only focuses on Topics carried by External inbound links. This can help you figure out if a page classification is due to direct links coming in, or from indirect topics where the classification may be carried through from external inbound links to other pages on the same domain.

Backlinks, Referring Domains, New & Lost Links

Backlink checker reports are a staple Site Explorer offering. Backlink checker reports focus on inbound links to the analysis target, both at URL and referring domain level. The new and deleted inbound links are reported best in the Fresh Index, with filters to identify new and deleted inbound links on a given day or specified period.

The backlinks tab also provides easy access to export all the backlink data we have for the websites you are analysing(*)

Link Context

Link Context reports, on Fresh Index data, are a helpful backlink checker tool to capture a sense of what is happening on the web right now. The Link Context tab is an evolution of the basic backlink checker reporting. Gone are the dull lists of anchor text, source pages and destination pages.

Link Context is an SEO tool that contains more Link Intelligence data expressed in a more usable way. With Link Context you have all the backlink profile you need, together with new data points to improve your organic search and digital marketing efforts.

Link Context Provides:

• An analysis of the Source Page.
• A summary of the number of outbound links, both in the document and in the proximity of the backlink.
• A "Link Density" chart indicates where the outbound link was located in the source page.

Link Context is so rich, we launched it with a downloadable, free Link Context guide.

Anchor Text

As may be expected, the anchor text tab reports on anchor text used in inbound links.

Anchor text can be visualised as a word cloud. The counts are broken down on a backlink and domain level basis to provide convenient comparisons between anchor text terms.

Pages

This report lists all the pages detected on the analysis target. It works best for Referring Domains Analysis. The pages tab is a simple yet effective way of seeing how search engines view your website (or those of your competitors).

An easy win is to do an SEO audit to identify broken links to deleted pages on your website Site. The Site Explorer top pages report identifies opportunities to create content and monetise qualified leads coming from referring domains that might otherwise be lost.
