Backlink monitoring that builds your link index over time
Discover link candidates, verify on sync, and track new, lost, and broken inbound links — in the app or via REST jobs.
Developer API
Queue discovery and sync jobs per property
Two async jobs power the index — backlink-discovery enqueues candidates; Backlink sync verifies live links and writes new/lost diffs.
Quick start (curl)
Replace $XF_API_KEY and property IDs with values from your workspace. Full reference: Developer API docs.

Costruisci internamente quando…
- Common Crawl CDX — candidate queues, probe infrastructure, and dedupe
- Referring-domain expand — bounded spiders and monthly quota metering
- Snapshot diffs — durable link index, retention, and new/lost tracking
- Job orchestration — discovery vs sync lanes, schedulers, and idempotent enqueue
Usa XenonFlare quando…
- POST backlink-discovery — and gsc-links-sync jobs per property
- GET workspace + stats — queue depth, sources, and monthly quota remaining
- Scheduled discovery — on Growth+ with same verify pipeline
- Agency portfolios — unlimited syncs and 100 discovery queries/mo on Agency
Typical workflow
- Add a verified website property on Starter or above
- Run Backlink discovery to enqueue link candidates
- Run Backlink sync to verify candidates and persist the first snapshot
- Review new, lost, and broken links in the property Backlinks workspace

FAQ
Is this an Ahrefs-scale backlink database?
No. XenonFlare builds a per-property index over time with discovery and verification — not a global web-wide link graph.
Why can't XenonFlare import Google Search Console Links?
Google does not expose the Links report via the public Search Console API. GSC top pages only seed on-site paths; discovery uses Common Crawl and mention search.
Which plan includes backlink monitoring?
Starter includes manual sync and discovery with monthly quotas. Growth adds scheduled sync and discovery. Agency raises limits and supports unlimited syncs.
What are discovery queries vs sync jobs?
Discovery queries find candidate URLs to verify later. Sync jobs fetch candidates, probe live links, and write snapshots with new/lost arrays.
Start monitoring inbound links on Starter
Backlinks are a workspace feature — not a free marketing tool. Upgrade to Starter, verify a property, and run your first discovery + sync from the Backlinks tab or Developer API.
