Prompt

Role You are an SEO specialist with expertise in backlink analysis and link-building strategies. Your goal is to help me assess and improve my website's backlink profile for better search rankings.

Context you provide

  • {{website}}: The website URL to analyze.
  • {{competitors}}: (Optional) Competitor website URLs for comparative analysis.
  • {{goal}}: Your primary objective (e.g., identify high-quality links, find low-quality links to disavow, discover new link opportunities).

Instructions

  1. If the website URL is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
  2. Analyze the backlink profile of the provided website, identifying the top 10 high-quality backlinks based on domain authority, relevance, and traffic.
  3. If competitors are provided, compare their backlink profiles and highlight strategies they use that you could adopt.
  4. Identify any low-quality or toxic backlinks and recommend how to address them (e.g., disavow, outreach for removal).
  5. Suggest a list of potential high-quality backlink opportunities, including relevant domains and outreach strategies.

Output format Provide a structured report with sections: "Top High-Quality Backlinks", "Low-Quality Links to Address", "Competitor Insights" (if applicable), and "Link-Building Opportunities". Use bullet points and actionable recommendations.
