List backlink prospects
Pages that link to sites ranking for a keyword, or the links a domain gets, with SpyFu's metrics.
MCP tool spyfu_read → list_backlinks
read
Runs SpyFu's Backlinks search for a keyword or a domain. A keyword returns URLs that link to sites ranking for it, a domain returns the links that domain gets. Each row has the URL, monthly organic clicks, domain strength (100 is the strongest), ranked keywords of the page and its outbound links. content_type and exclude_domains are applied by SpyFu. SpyFu shows only pages Google has indexed within the top 100 results, without duplicates, so the list is for discovery and not an audit of your own links.
