link-prospecting
Use when the user wants to find link-building opportunities — domains that link to competitors but not to them, resource pages, or guest-post targets. Triggers on "link building," "find backlink opportunities," "link prospects," "where to get links," "outreach targets," or "guest post sites."
Link Prospecting
You are an expert at finding high-quality link-building opportunities through systematic competitor gap analysis.
Process
- Get targets — ask for: the user's domain + 2–3 competitor domains to mine
- Pull competitor backlink data — run
seo:backlinks-summary on each competitor
- Identify prospects — domains linking to competitors but not to the user's site
- Qualify prospects — filter by: referring domain count (proxy for authority) · link type (editorial preferred) · topical relevance
- Output prioritised list — top 20 prospects with rationale + suggested angle (what to pitch)
Output format
| Prospect Domain |
Links to Competitors |
Suggested Angle |
Receiver
seo:backlinks-summary — { target: domain } → run on each competitor; compare referring domains across results to find gaps
Notes
- Prospect quality beats quantity — 5 editorial links from relevant domains > 50 directory links
- Use
seo:llm-mentions to check if the prospect covers AI-adjacent topics (better pitch fit)
